THE BLOOD HEIR'S BARGAIN

A bargain sealed in blood. A kingdom balanced on the edge of ruin. A love that could destroy them both.

For twenty-one years, Lyra Veyne has lived in the shadows of a secret powerful enough to ignite a war between worlds. Raised among mortals but marked by an ancient legacy she barely understands, she has spent her life hiding from forces she cannot name and powers she cannot control.

Everything changes the night the Blood Moon rises.

Dragged into the deadly realm of Nytherion, Lyra discovers the truth about her birthright. She is the last surviving heir to an ancient bloodline believed lost for centuries, a bloodline coveted by kings, feared by enemies, and whispered about in forgotten prophecies.

To survive, she must strike a dangerous bargain with the one being she should never trust.

King Kaelith Draven is the immortal ruler of Nytherion, a feared fae monarch whose name inspires both loyalty and terror. Beautiful, ruthless, and impossibly powerful, Kaelith has spent centuries protecting his kingdom from enemies lurking beyond the veil. He knows Lyra may be the key to saving his realm.

Or its destruction.

Bound together by a blood-forged pact neither can break, Lyra and Kaelith are forced into an uneasy alliance as ancient magic awakens, rival courts plot betrayal, and long-buried secrets begin to surface. With every passing day, the line between hatred and desire grows thinner, and the attraction neither of them wants becomes impossible to ignore.

But in a world where loyalty is bought with blood and every promise carries a price, falling in love may be the most dangerous mistake of all.

As darkness gathers and a forgotten enemy rises from the ashes of history, Lyra must decide who she truly is, what she is willing to sacrifice, and whether destiny is worth the cost.

Because some bargains demand more than blood.

They demand your heart.
