Anathema: a Lesbian Fantasy Romance Bond Book

“For someone sent to kill me, you’re intent on making me spread your legs.”Asteria Saelys was never a warrior—just a sharp-mouthed, magic-less brat tucked safely behind royal walls. That is, until her birthday turns into a public execution. Shackled and thrown into the forest beyond the kingdom, she’s given a single command: slay the last surviving Smoke, a so-called plague upon the land.But the “monster” she meets isn’t the horned beast she was warned about. Cerberus Smoke is towering, tatted, terrifying—and devastatingly gorgeous. A shifter with golden eyes and a body made to tempt sin. She saves Asteria’s life. Then threatens to end it.What begins as a suicidal mission unravels into something more twisted, more intimate, more dangerous than Asteria ever imagined. The forest hides more than beasts. Cerberus hides more than bloodlust. And Asteria? She’s starting to crave both the power—and the woman—she was sent to destroy.Queer dark fantasy meets sapphic slow-burn in this lush, violent, and deliciously unhinged tale of betrayal, desire, and the magic that blooms in ruin.For fans of enemies-to-lovers, monster girls, cursed bloodlines, and dirty-mouthed lesbians with trauma.⚠️ Warning: Contains explicit sexual content, queer romance, gore, and genocide.
