A ghost bride. A mysterious duke. A murder that started it all. (cover art by Zamora)

For some, life is a battlefield-ruthless and unforgiving. For others, it's a less lethal but equally competitive play, full of unexpected challenges and struggles. But everything in life is like a game. There are wins and losses. Prizes and rewards. And most of all? Rules. For me and Erebus Davis, there are simple ones. Obvious ones. Three rules. Easy to follow. Easy to remember. But one move changed everything. One moment, we are who we've always been. And the next second... there's a misstep. A violation of the game. A decision I could never take back. Out of all the rules, I broke the most important one. In this grand play of our lives, there's a zone I shouldn't have crossed... and a silent rule that shouldn't have been broken.
