Thessaly has spent her life haunted by nightmares of a shadowed male and a beast prowling beneath her skin. But her visions are not the only pieces of herself she cannot trust. Her memories have been stripped from her again and again, her past stolen and her origins buried, until one violent night forces her to unleash the darkness she has spent her life suppressing.
Dragged into the hidden world of the fae, a realm divided between the radiant Seelie Court and the shadowed Unseelie, Thessaly learns her nightmares were never only dreams. They were warnings. Invitations. A door opening between her and something ancient enough to recognize the magic waking inside her.
Riven, heir to the Seelie Court, is the first to see the woman beneath the prophecy. Ruthless, guarded, and bound by secrets of his own, he should be her enemy. Instead, he becomes the one person capable of anchoring her to the humanity she is terrified to lose.
But fate has another claim on her-one that has been waiting in her nightmares.
Kael, commander in a rising dark army, does not fear what Thessaly is becoming. He reveres it. As her power grows, the dreams that once haunted her become something far more dangerous: a connection. Where Riven offers control, Kael offers release. Where Riven loves the woman she is fighting to remain, Kael worships the weapon she could become.
And to a girl whose life has been stolen, sealed, and buried, being worshipped might feel dangerously like being seen.
As war stirs across the realms and forgotten bloodlines begin to wake, Thessaly must uncover the truth of what was taken from her before the darkness beneath her skin convinces her to surrender the last fragile pieces of who she was.
Because the prophecy the courts fear may not be warning of a savior at all, but of the hidden heirs whose choices could save the realms-or end them.
