The Withering || BOOK 2 | HIATUS

"Those golden scars do not define who you are."

~ ~ ~

Peace is no longer an option. The Hollows spread like wildfire, twisting the realms of the living and spirit into one. The Kingdom of Delaryr falls deeper under Stanimir Servodax's reign of blood and betrayal. His armies march, and the Elder One lurks, seeking the perfect host to shatter all hope. The continent is at war.

Heather, Cassius and Ajax survive, and are forging uneasy alliances. But trust is fragile, and enemies wear familiar faces. Every battle and betrayal pushes them closer to the truth - and to each other. Their wary partnership is laced with dangerous longing, the kind neither of them can afford to indulge. Yet, when death brushes close, desire refuses to stay buried.

To survive, they must stand together. To win, they must risk losing more than their lives.

And as the Hollows tightens its grip, the greatest danger may not be the darkness consuming the world, but the fire in their hearts they chose to ignore.
