Lila Serrin vanished three years ago, leaving a body, a trail of fire, and a man who would have died for her.
Now she's back in the world she bled to escape-hunted, exposed and face-to-face with the one person she swore she'd never see again.
Mikiel knows what she did and why she did it. He also knows that Sym won't rest until she's a ghost for real this time.
Together, they have one rule: survive long enough to burn the empire that made them.
But the closer they get to freedom, the more dangerous the pull between them becomes, because in their world, love is leverage.
A slow-burn, high-stakes story of trust, vengeance and the thin line between devotion and destruction.

What Remains After Fire
In a city of neon-lit lies and blood-soaked loyalties, two men chase each other through the smoke-one for a microchip worth a kingdom, the other for the man he swore he'd never need. Dorian Cade is a former circus acrobat turned thrill-seeking thief, a man who hides his bruised soul behind reckless charm and a half-smile that dares the world to catch him. After stealing a chip powerful enough to shift global power, he becomes the hunted-by enemies, by ghosts, and by the one man he can't outrun. Lucian Vale is a strategist, a ghost of the intelligence world turned information kingpin, who never plays a hand he hasn't already mastered. Cold. Controlled. Unforgiving.
