A powerful witch. A cursed vampire. A castle built on blood. And a secret that could destroy them both.

A power that was never meant to wake. Caught in a slow-burning battle between duty, desire, and destruction, Delphine and Theron must decide what they’re willing to sacrifice. Because the truth isn’t just dangerous. It’s hungry.
