“You have saved me countless times before, my love. Let me save us this time.”
Back in Exile, Thea is plagued by the unshakable feeling that something is missing—something important. Each night, she is comforted by dreams of a man whose face remains a mystery, except for his piercing golden eyes. But as her dreams twist into nightmares, they unveil his perilous fate—a fate she is determined to rewrite.
When an unexpected turn of events forces her back to Cerithia, it comes with a new mission: to eliminate the Crimson bloodline. Yet, everything shifts on the battlefield when Thea meets Cassius. His teasing words and commanding presence stir something deep within her—she realizes she’s found what was missing.
With her prophecy still incomplete and her curse unbroken, Thea unearths dangerous truths that shift the course of her destiny. Can she embrace the will of the gods and rise as an unstoppable force, crumbling kingdoms and killing kings to claim her fate? Or will the secrets she now guards reshape the fates of both her and Cassius?
