A Serpent in the Embers

I was the Queen's most ruthless mercenary until she asked me to slay the only male I would die for.
A Dark Fae Romantasy for fans of fated mates and morally gray heroines.

I've killed for coin my entire life. Fae. Shifters. Even an angel once. But when the Queen of Darkness orders me to assassinate Stone, the Shadow Court's deadliest warrior, I hesitate. That hesitation costs me everything.

In an impulsive moment, I pull him with me to my own realm. An instant of indecision, when I believe one more second can gain me time to think. Now he's trapped in my realm. The Sisters want to use him. Bind him. Break him. And I've just realized the brutal truth. He's my fated mate. The one bond I can never break. But Stone hates me for dragging him into this nightmare, and I can't blame him. To save his life, I'll have to surrender mine.

One ritual. One night. One impossible choice that will bind us forever or tear us both apart.
