To break the curse, she must surrender to it.
But saving the kingdom may cost Kaia her soul.
With war looming and time running out, Kaia has only one path left: embrace the fate she's fought so hard to escape. Sacrificing her freedom—and her heart—she turns herself over to the dark king, Morlet, determined to end the curse that has haunted their bloodlines for over a century.
As the unlikely pair uncover long-buried truths, Kaia begins to see the man behind the monster...and the role she was truly meant to play.
But the closer they come to unlocking the past, the more dangerous the present becomes.
Tested by betrayal, torn by love, and haunted by a power she can barely control, Kaia must face the darkness within herself—and make an unthinkable choice.
One that will shatter everything she thought she knew.
One that will decide the fate of the kingdom…forever.
