She was warned not to look into the dark. She didn't know it would look back... and offer a deal.
Liora Blackthorn has always followed the rules. Until the night she made a desperate choice, one that bound her to a man cloaked in shadows, with secrets inked beneath his skin and power laced into every word.
When he covers her eyes, the world sharpens.
When he speaks, her soul trembles.
Damien Vale is no ordinary man. He's ancient. Dangerous. And the only one who can save the people Liora loves but at a price far greater than gold. As part of the bargain, Liora must surrender not just her sight... but her will.
What begins as a contract signed in blood spirals into a battle of control and desire. As their connection deepens, so do the lies and the hunger between them. But in a world where nothing is as it seems, Liora must decide what she's willing to sacrifice:
Her freedom.
Her heart.
Or her very humanity.
Because the man who owns her eyes... might soon own everything.
