The sanctuary was meant to be safe.Now it's a slaughterhouse waiting to ignite.A tyrant has risen, his decree shackling Reya and Ashur's blood-born magic. Ashur is condemned to silence. Reya is stripped of freedom—forced to endure the dictator's obsession and the looming shadow of violence.Every infraction spills blood.Every whisper of defiance courts annihilation.Yet rebellion smolders beneath the surface. If they can survive the king's wrath, Reya and Ashur may reclaim their magic, their child, and the fire to burn his empire to ash.But when the cost of defiance is everything they love… will they dare to strike?
