No wolf, he was the last Lionblooded, heir to a forbidden throne. Half a world away, Layla-a sherni of 308 kingdoms-felt a spark flare in her eyes, her own sigils answering his call. Two souls, forged by an ancient storm, race toward a clash that will devour them-and break the world. Destiny isn't given. It's claimed in blood.

Spencer thought Crimson Shield Academy would be her fresh start-a chance to train among the best and finally prove herself. But when a strange mark burns into her palm and a voice begins haunting her dreams, she realizes she didn't come here by chance. As danger creeps closer and whispers of a fallen celestial rise, Spencer must face the truth about her bloodline-and the darkness trying to claim her. Because the mark on her skin isn't just power. It's a warning. And someone out there believes she belongs to him.

In the sun-blessed kingdom of Leontara, every heir is destined to bear a sacred mark-proof of their bond with the mighty creatures that guard the realm. To be unmarked is to be forgotten. To be unbonded is to be nothing. Caelyth was raised as a princess of Leontara, her mark inked across her skin, her future promised. But as the bond ceremonies draw near she alone remains unanswered. While others claim their destinies, Caelyth must confront a truth that sets her apart-one that could unravel everything she has ever known. A tale of belonging, courage, and a destiny unclaimed begins here-before the gathering of kingdoms, before the war of heirs. In the heart of Leontara, one girl stands on the edge of becoming either the realm's greatest shame... or its only hope.
