Once a century, the Blood Moon rises — and when it does, it writes its claim in living fire across a woman’s skin.
Cecilia Crosby has read every journal her grandmother left behind. She knows what the burning mark on her chest means. She knows the wolf-warriors will come for her. She knows the ancient compact demands she be delivered to Morvael — the Shadow God, the Devourer, the Hungry Dark — to have the most essential part of herself consumed. She has spent three years preparing for this night. What she has not prepared for is Tristen Spears.
The Wolf King has escorted four women to the ritual site in sixty years. He has kept their names and carried their weight and told himself each time that the law was the law, that one woman’s soul was the price of a hundred women’s safety. He almost believed it. Then Cecilia stands at the cliff’s edge with fire threading up her throat, and he reaches for her mark, and everything he has spent a century maintaining fractures — because the bond that flares between them is older than the god’s claim, older than the compact, older than the law he has been enforcing in the dark.
Now Tristen has broken the oldest covenant in the supernatural world, a shadow god is hunting them both, and the only thing standing between Cecilia and a fate worse than death is a wolf king who has spent two hundred and thirty years alone and a mate bond neither of them asked for. The ancient laws say the bond is the one claim that supersedes even a god’s. But ancient laws have to be proven — and Morvael is not interested in waiting for the evidence.
