Juliette Swan had plans for her gap year. None of which involved becoming the focus of ancient vampire kings, or really any vampires. Instead of spending time with her dad or younger sister, she's stuck in Volterra, where she must decide whether or not immortality is worth the cost of herself. *ੈ✩‧₊˚✩ "𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐥𝐲, 𝐲𝐨𝐮'𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐬𝐮𝐜𝐡 𝐚... 𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐞 𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧.

In the silent depths of Volterra, where stone remembers every scream, Elira, a half-immortal oracle with clouded eyes lives under lock and ritual. Her visions are cryptic, cursed, and often too true. The Volturi call her The Black Bride, a creature to be feared and used. To bind her powers to the throne, a marriage is arranged: Caius, cold and calculating, ancient as war, is chosen to wed the girl he calls a liability. But when her visions begin to whisper secrets only he remembers of death, betrayal, and a future soaked in ash, Caius finds himself haunted by a bride he never wanted and cannot let go of. She sees his ruin. He swears to rewrite fate. Bound by crown and curse, they become prophecy's undoing, or its final victims. He was promised a queen, he got a vision in human skin.

When a surge of panic tears Clio Cullen-Hale from modern Forks, she lands in Bronze-Age Greece-centuries before the Volturi ever ruled. There she meets Aro: human, brilliant, and destined to become a monster. To survive she must learn the laws of a world still inventing them-and decide whether saving him will rewrite history or destroy it. Time travel. Ancient gods. A love that outlives mortality. Clio Rubina needs to decide what part she must take in the origins of Aro Volturi and the city of Volterra.
