The Blood Opera
Behind velvet curtains and gilded balconies, the opera is more than a performance. It's a hunting ground, a court of monsters disguised as patrons and benefactors.
When a masked nobleman claims her talent as his own, Lyria is drawn into a world where music is power, restraint is survival, and desire is the most dangerous temptation of all.
The longer Lyria remains under his protection, the more she awakens. Her body responds to hungers she does not yet understand and her are dreams invaded by a silver-eyed predator who promises freedom instead of restraint.
As the opera's beauty curdles into something predatory, Lyria must decide what she is willing to become to survive it.
The stage is watching. The city is listening. And once the blood sings, it cannot be silenced.
