If The Shepherd King series marked your soul, this prophecy-drenched, enemies-to-ruin romantasy will devour what remains.

I clawed my way out of hell.

I outwitted the ephelium.

But I can’t escape what comes next.

Thaddeus doesn’t conquer—he corrupts. Twisted by dark magic, he’s determined to strip the supernatural realms bare and crown himself a god.

And the key to his power… is me.

My magic is the one force strong enough to make him unstoppable. If I refuse to unleash it, he won’t stop at breaking me.

He’ll come for everyone I love.

Everyone except Syrus.

Dragged back to Infernum, Syrus is a prisoner of the demon lords—punished for choosing me over them. Every moment he remains there, he pays for that choice in blood.

And I’m the only one who can save him.

But our love was never meant to save the world.

It was meant to end it.

Once before, a bond like ours plunged the realms into war. Now prophecy demands we finish what they started.

If I save Syrus, the realms may burn.

If I don’t, he dies.

Either way, the world is about to fall.

And if destruction is the price of saving the one I love—

Then I’ll be the one who lights the fire.
