If Darius gets to her first, she won’t just be claimed — she’ll be used as a weapon. But Aria isn’t anyone’s pawn. Under Kai’s watch, she learns to control the fire rising inside her — to breathe, to choose, to fight.

Aria must decide if she can trust the bond growing between her and Kai — before the next pull drags her across a line she can never uncross.
