They broke her once. Betrayed her when she needed them most. And now? They want her back.
Arielle Blackthorn never asked to be born half-vampire, half-human-an abomination in the eyes of the pureblood elite. Raised in the shadows of a cruel vampire court and hunted for a power she doesn't understand, Ari learned to trust no one... especially not the eight vampires who once swore to protect her.
They were her bonded soul ties-eight dark princes bound to her by fate, by blood, by magic. But when the prophecy revealed what she truly was, they turned on her. Banished. Shattered. Broken. Ari disappeared.
Five years later, she's back-stronger, colder, dangerous in ways the world hasn't begun to fear yet. She's not here to forgive. She's here to reclaim her power. But the soul tie still burns, and the bond that was meant to unite them for a higher purpose won't let her forget the past... or them.
Bang Chan, the tortured leader haunted by guilt.
Lee Know, the stoic assassin who flinched the day she bled.
Changbin, the brute who didn't fight hard enough.
Hyunjin, the beautiful liar who kissed her goodbye.
Han, the chaotic genius who hid her secrets.
Felix, the light she lost in the dark.
Seungmin, the silent observer who never spoke for her.
I.N, the youngest, whose betrayal cut deepest of all.
They'll do anything to earn her forgiveness.
But Ari? She didn't survive hell just to be their redemption.
The soul bond wants healing.
Fate wants war.
And Arielle Blackthorn?
She just wants them to suffer-slowly.
