I was supposed to die.
The werewolf venom was killing me, burning through my body, unraveling me from the inside out. I was ready to let go—until Costin, the master vampire, broke his promise never to turn me and made a choice for me.
Now, I’m trapped between life and death—between dying and something far worse. Two ancient curses war inside me. The werewolf’s bite should have killed me. The vampire’s blood should have saved me. Instead, they’re tearing me apart.
I don’t know what I am. I don’t know if I’ll survive.
The supernatural world is watching, waiting to see what rises from my ashes. Costin would die to keep me alive. Paul refuses to walk away. And the Council? They want me dead before I become something they can’t control.
But if I have to choose between dying as a mortal or living as a monster… I’ll make my own damn rules.
Because I’m nearly dead—and I’m done being powerless.
