She was born to break the curse. Together, they might destroy a kingdom.

As heir to Gyoria, every choice Terran has made has been forged in duty and hardened by the weight of his father’s hatred for Aetherians. But when Lady Lyra, an Aetherian noblewoman, enters his life, fierce and untamed, her presence threatens to unravel the stone walls he has built around his heart.

Lyra carries her own secrets, bound to magic and truth she cannot easily share. Trusting Terran could cost her everything, yet resisting him grows harder with every glance, every stolen touch and every vow whispered in the dark.

As the final relics stir and the ancient Aetherian Gate stands on the brink of reopening, clans are poised to fracture and loyalties begin to splinter. To claim a future together, Terran and Lyra must decide if their love can withstand not only betrayal and bloodshed but the weight of Elydor’s destiny itself…
