Ashes Beneath The Veil

Born into one of the kingdom's sacred oracle bloodlines, Odette Belrose was raised to obey prophecy not question it. But after witnessing her mother die in the flames of a so-called holy purification, faith became something dangerous.

Now war spreads across the realm, and Odette finds herself captured by Kael a feared beast commander shaped by brutality, hatred, and a past the kingdom tried to erase. He sees her as the living symbol of everything that destroyed his people. She sees him as the monster her world warned her about.

But captivity turns to obsession as buried truths begin to surface.

Because the gods never cursed the beasts.

And prophecy was never meant to be trusted.

In a world ruled by divinity, blood, and war, Odette and Kael are forced to choose between the truths they were raised to worship... or the truths of each other.
