Ruthless, cunning, and unyielding, she wields her power with precision, a perfect weapon molded by her father, King Mario.

Across the ruined lands of Eldrid, Prince Kairen burns with hatred. The last surviving heir to a kingdom destroyed by Arcanvale, he has spent years honing his strength and strategy, preparing for the day he would take his revenge.

When their paths cross, sparks ignite into flames, and their hatred pushes them into a dangerous battle of wills. But as Alethea uncovers secrets about her family's dark past and the blood-soaked pact that binds their kingdoms, she and Kairen are forced to confront a terrifying truth: their fates are intertwined in ways neither could have foreseen.
