In the aftermath of death, the Veil remembers.
Elyra believed Kael was gone forever after the darkness beneath the mountains consumed him. For three months, she mourned the man who sacrificed everything to save her and the kingdom of Hollow Veil. But when the sky fractures and shadows begin crawling across the realm once more, Kael returns changed by the Veil itself.
More powerful. More dangerous. And bound to an ancient force that knows Elyra’s name.
As creatures older than kingdoms rise from beyond the Veil, Elyra discovers the terrifying truth hidden within her bloodline. The darkness calling to her is not new. It remembers her from lifetimes long forgotten, from worlds where she and Kael loved each other long before this one existed.
Now, with the Veil breaking apart and ancient rulers clawing their way back into the world, Elyra and Kael must face a love that has survived death, ruin, and time itself. But some bonds are powerful enough to reshape worlds, and the closer they grow, the more dangerous they become together.
Because the Veil does not want a queen.
It wants its queen back.
