About this ebook
Corvin looked at her for a long moment.
“Good,” he said. “I’d think less of both of us if you did.”
For centuries, the kingdoms of Thornhold and the Dominion have been divided by blood, war, and a hatred passed from one generation to the next.
Wren Solveig has spent nineteen years carrying the scars of that hatred. The last surviving heir of Thornhold, she has learned to survive by keeping her bloodline—and the mysterious mark on her arm—hidden.
Corvin Nyxfall is everything she was taught to despise: a feared vampire general, an immortal weapon of the Dominion, and a man whose past is stained by the same war that destroyed Wren's family.
Then fate puts them together.
An ancient binding is failing.
The Hollow Mother has something buried beneath the salt flats for four hundred years is beginning to wake.
And there are only twenty-one nights before the seal breaks.
The old legends say the binding can only be renewed by the blood of both their lineages. But the truth is far more dangerous: the seal cannot be forced. It requires trust. Choice. And something neither Wren nor Corvin is willing to name.
As monsters emerge from the dark, kingdoms move against them, and enemies close in from every side, Wren and Corvin must uncover the truth behind the prophecy before the twenty-first night arrives.
Because the greatest threat may not be the creature waiting beneath the world.
It may be the hatred they inherited.
And the love they were never supposed to choose.
