Verena Hale never believed in monsters - until her sister vanished after performing a strange ritual from one of her books.
In her search, Verena is pulled into a hidden realm ruled by vampires and witches, bound by a shattered relic known as the Bloodstone - once the life source that united them all.
There, she meets Prince Kael, the cursed heir whose fire destroys everything he touches - except her. As Verena uncovers the truth about her sister's disappearance, she becomes tangled in forbidden desire, ancient prophecy, and a war that could end both their worlds.
When fire meets life, the Bloodfire will rise... and destiny will burn.
In a world where magic burns like desire, Serah enters the forbidden ruins of Velmora Castle to save her sister's life - but awakens Kael, the shadow prince bound to her by blood and fire.
One kiss ignites an ancient bond, one touch awakens power she never knew she had... Serah closed her eyes, letting the wind sweep across her face. The scent of lilies mixed with a shadow she couldn't name, and for a moment, the world felt suspended between night and dawn. Her heart skipped when a sudden gust carried a whisper she almost recognized - Kael.
He was gone, vanished into the fractures of the Shadow Realm, leaving only the echo of his presence and a mark that now burned on her wrist. Serah's fingers brushed the symbol, feeling its pulse sync with her own heartbeat. She knew then that nothing - no darkness, no law, no prophecy - would ever be the same.
