26 parts Complete A half-angel, half-demon girl on the run.
A childhood friend turned betrayer.
A dying boyfriend she's desperate to save.
And a monstrous father who wants her heart-for power, not love.
Inara Astaroth has never truly been safe. Born to an angel mother and a demon vessel, her very existence is a threat-especially to the godless deity who lives within her father and wants to consume her heart to ascend.
After surviving her father's violent return and the betrayal of her closest friend, Inara has spent most of her life in hiding-until now. With her boyfriend Cyrus slowly succumbing to an incurable magical sickness, Inara embarks on a journey across a fractured land in search of a mythical cure, accompanied by the last person she ever wanted to see again: Kota, the werewolf boy who once led her into a trap that nearly got her killed.
As they travel through cursed forests, collapsing shrines, and time-bending ruins, old wounds begin to reopen-and so do old feelings. Inara doesn't know what's worse: the growing tension between her and Kota, or the creeping realization that her heart may not belong entirely to Cyrus anymore. But with her father still hunting her and the cure buried deep beneath the sea in a lost city guarded by ancient powers, she doesn't have the luxury of doubt.
Because she's not just trying to save the boy she loves-
She's trying to outrun the fate written in her blood.
**A lush and haunting romantic fantasy, perfect for fans of emotionally complex characters, dangerous magic, found family, and star-crossed lovers.**
