When Gods Bleed

I was never meant to touch the altar.
Never meant to carry a mark the gods themselves fear.

At twenty-six, my life should have been ordinary. Instead, I became the key to a prison built for a god and the target of powers that were never supposed to notice me.

Bound by a curse disguised as prophecy, I am forced into an uneasy alliance with the very being they tried to erase. He is ancient, dangerous, and hiding more than he tells me. I don't trust him.

But the gods are watching now.
And they are running out of patience.

In a world where myths bleed and love is the deadliest magic of all, I must decide what I am willing to become before fate decides for me.
