Shadow-Bound Flame
The Sunstone is broken, and the Fire must choose a master. For a thousand years, the curse has dimmed the light of the Sunstone lineage in Veridia. Princess Lyra, the last flicker of her fading kingdom, carries a terrifying secret: a dormant, unbound fire in her blood-the power foretold to either save the world or burn it to ash. When King Aethos Volkar, the ruthless ruler of the Shadowfell Empire and master of the Void, executes his final conquest, he claims Lyra as his ultimate prize. He is the ultimate predator, shattering Veridia's defenses and seizing the power he knows he cannot extract, only bind. Now a captive in the desolate, obsidian heart of the Shadowfell Citadel, Lyra is given a brutal choice: refuse him, and watch her remaining people be dismantled, or accept his crown. Aethos commands her to be his Shadow-Bound Flame-his Queen-so that her chaotic, immense power can be tamed and fused with his cold, absolute dominion. To survive, Lyra must master the dangerous magic she despises and find a way to strike at the man she has sworn to destroy. But as the King of Shadow begins to teach her the limits of her own strength, she discovers that hatred is merely a passion that can be misplaced... and the line between salvation and ruin is agonizingly thin.
