Vixen Nightbloom is an assassin feared across kingdoms, a blade honed in darkness and blood. Trained by the ruthless Alaric, who shaped her into his perfect weapon, Vixen has spent her life running from her past, haunted by shadows and the faces of those she's killed. When she's captured and chained, stripped of her powers and caged within Shadow lock prison, Vixen must navigate a deadly game of alliances and betrayals, playing the roles of prisoner, protector, and something far more dangerous. King Malachi and his captain, Ezra, are torn between their desire to keep Vixen close and the growing fear that she's far more than she appears. Bound to them by fate, secrets, and bonds they don't fully understand, Vixen struggles to keep her fractured past buried. But when whispers of rebellion surface, and Alaric returns to reclaim her as his weapon, Vixen's carefully constructed world begins to unravel. Caught between the loyalty of those who would kill for her and the men who would die to save her, Vixen must confront the truth she's buried for so long-her destiny as the last heir of a fallen kingdom and the power that lies dormant within her blood. As the lines between enemy and ally blur, and the pull of a long-forgotten throne beckons, Vixen must decide whether to rise from the ashes or let the darkness consume her once more. In a world where trust is a fragile illusion and power comes at a deadly price, Vixen's next move could save a kingdom-or destroy it.
