Residing in modern-day London, Arraetta's life has always been marked by chaos: strange visions, mysterious blackouts, and a past she can't remember.

A chance meeting draws her into the orbit of Seraiah, a cursed prince from another realm, trapped in a kingdom that longs to tear him apart.

Pulled into a realm of dark secrets, unshackled power, and star-crossed love, Arraetta becomes bound to a fate she cannot escape, no matter how hard she tries. And while Seraiah fights to protect her from the darkness, she cannot deny the pull it has over her.

As she uncovers her lineage as a demigod, Arraetta learns that not everything gleaming before her is as pristine as it seems. And when she is locked within the confines of a gilded cage, her past and power strain against the shackles that bind her.

Seraiah’s war for the throne has been simmering since he arrived in the realm known as Earth almost a century ago. The forsaken prince. The cursed son. A weapon forged by Gods and grief. He will stop at nothing to claim the throne that is rightfully his from his tyrannical father.

But as the battle for power rages, so does the darkness buried deep within him, waiting to be unleashed one fracture at a time. The curse coils beneath his skin, feeding on his fury, his loss, and his damnation. He never believed in love, nor in mercy, no matter the fate the Gods intended for him.

​

Until a chance meeting with Arraetta.

​

From the moment she enters his world, she becomes the one thing he cannot release. Her power calls to his, her presence anchors him, and her safety becomes his obsession. He keeps his darkness hidden from her, not out of shame, but fear of what it might cost her if she ever sees it. She sees the man beneath the monster, even as he risks destroying that fragile truth with every secret he keeps.

​

As his kingdom begins to shatter, his focus narrows. Love blooms, twisted and consuming. Alliances fracture. Betrayals fester among those he once trusted.

Because who can truly trust in a kingdom built on blood?

Arraetta is determined to escape the realm of the dead, but in a world where fate no longer binds her, she begins to question whether she wants to leave at all.
