About the Book
Bound by a blade. Hunted by destiny.
Kaelina Tiran has lived her life in the shadows, surviving as a thief in the crumbling mortal kingdom of Tethrial. But when she steals a strange Fae relic—a blade humming with ancient power—her life shatters. Hunted by assassins and betrayed by those she trusted, Kaelina is captured by Ashren, a brooding Fae warlord with secrets as dark as his magic.
Ashren needs the blade to seal the Veil, the barrier keeping a vengeful god trapped in another realm. Kaelina? She’s just another pawn. But as their fragile alliance leads them to the legendary Academy of the Veil—a place of deadly training and forbidden knowledge—Kaelina discovers she’s more than a thief. She’s the key to a power that could save their world—or destroy it.
As enemies close in and the Veil begins to crumble, Kaelina faces an impossible choice: surrender to the blade’s deadly magic or lose the Fae warlord who might just be her fated mate.
The Veil is breaking. Something monstrous is waking. And Kaelina might be the key to it all.
