"Bound by blood. Claimed by chaos. Crowned in sin."
When fledgling witch Nyah Carter tries to summon the spirit of her late grandmother, she accidentally tears a hole in the veil between worlds-and unleashes Malrik, a devastatingly seductive demon king. One of the Seven Rulers of the Underworld, Malrik has hunted her bloodline for centuries. Now, he finally has her... and he won't let go.
As Nyah is drawn deeper into Malrik's world of lust, power, and shadows, she's forced into a dark bargain that transforms her body, her soul-and her destiny. Trapped between the remains of her humanity and the hunger of her growing demonic nature, Nyah must learn to navigate a court full of monsters, a love built on manipulation, and a child prophesied to inherit an empire of fire.
But as the underworld burns with war and betrayal, one truth rises above all:
She may be his bride, but she was never meant to be anyone's pawn.
