Soulbound: Chosen by Darkness In a city that devours the vulnerable, Tharien has learned one rule: distance is the only way to protect what he loves.

But their bond is not something that can be outrun. A rare and forbidden soulbond ties them together, threading their hearts, their pain, and their survival into one. When Tharien disappears, the bond fractures, leaving Nori hollowed by longing and hunted by shadows that feed on separation. The farther he goes, the darker the world becomes—because something ancient has awakened in the space between them.

And the darkness that stalks their world grows stronger with every step he takes away from her. To save Nori, Tharien must return to the one place he swore he’d never stand again—at her side. Because in a world that calls separation mercy, choosing each other is rebellion. And loving her may be the only thing that keeps the darkness from devouring them both.
