Cursed by darkness, he is a knight feared by all-his touch withers, his shadow devours.
Hunted for her bloodline, she is the last of her kind-too powerful to live, too precious to die.
Their paths should never have crossed.
Yet fate binds them together on a journey through fire, ash, and secrets best left buried.
In a world where love can be as dangerous as any curse, one question remains:
will they destroy each other, or will they be the salvation neither dared dream of?

The Offering
Almost a century ago, the fae discovered they could no longer bear children-and humanity paid the price. A treaty was forged: The Offering. Once every couple of decades, young fertile women are taken from their homes and delivered to the fae realm, destined to become wives for fae lords. Treasured. Trapped. Chosen. Daella always knew it could happen to her. But when the fae come, she isn't ready. And she sure as hell isn't willing. Now forced to live inside a gilded palace among the other chosen, Daella must learn the ways of the fae world-obedience, grace, and silence. She refuses. Her defiance draws the attention of the three fae princes, each bound by duty... and each dangerously intrigued by the human girl who dares to fight back. As desire grows and loyalties are tested, Daella begins to unravel the lies behind the treaty that stole her freedom. And in a realm built on secrets and power, she might be the spark that sets everything ablaze.
