Banished. Betrayed. Desperate.
Sepheria Ashbourne, the beloved daughter of Duke Ashbourne, was once the crown prince's fiancée-until he cast her aside for another, condemning her with false crimes to secure his new love. Stripped of her status and left with nothing, Sepheria turns to the forbidden.
In her darkest moment, she summons Lukas-an ancient and powerful archmage long lost to legend. Bound by a demonic contract, Lui is more monster than man, a being who should not exist in the mortal realm. Yet, for reasons even he cannot understand, he answers her call.
Now tied to the fragile yet defiant woman who dared summon him, Lukas finds himself entangled in a mortal's fate. But Sepheria's enemies are powerful, and her vengeance may cost more than she bargained for.
As desire and danger intertwine, an archmage who has never known mercy and a woman who refuses to break must decide: is their contract merely a means to an end... or the beginning of something neither of them expected?
