Kaelen doesn't just walk in shadows; he commands them. Drawn into his world, Layla finds herself wrapped in rituals, symbols, and secrets she can't fully understand. The thrill of Kaelen's dark magic both entices and terrifies her, offering an escape from her pain but pulling her into something far more dangerous than she could ever imagine. As her mental struggles begin to collide with the real, supernatural dangers he introduces, Layla must decide if she has the strength to resist the allure of Kaelen's world-or if she'll be lost to the darkness forever.
