In the underworld, power is seized by blood and loyalty is an illusion.
For Mira Callahan, vengeance is a promise, more than a prophecy—it's inherited. Raised in the shadows, where an entire empire was consumed by the deep darkness, she built herself piece by piece over the years into the ruthless commander of The Black Reign. Her heart serves as armor; her past is a weapon. Nothing can penetrate the solid wall she has built—until he arrives.
Luca Moretti, however, is the ghost of her past: a man forged in violence, driven by obsession, and blind to the truths lurking beneath their history.
As fate has it, their paths cross once again, forcing Mira to confront the one thing more dangerous than her enemies-her past with Luca.
He wants answers, she wants revenge, and in a world where love is a weakness and betrayal is inevitable, the only certainty is war.
But in this game of power and betrayal, who will remain standing when the veil finally drops?
