Love is a sacrifice on the altar of power. After the bloody Kejari tournament, Oraya’s life has been reduced to ashes. Imprisoned in her own kingdom, she mourns the death of the only family she’s ever known and clings to one certainty: she can’t trust anyone-especially Raihn, after his cruel betrayal. The House of Night is surrounded by enemies. The nobles refuse to accept Raihn as king-a turned vampire and former slave. And the House of Blood has sunk its claws into the realm, threatening to bleed it dry from within. When Raihn offers her an alliance, Oraya realizes it’s her only chance to claim the throne and take revenge on the one she once called an ally. To succeed, she’ll have to summon an ancient power tied to her father’s deepest secret. As Oraya unravels her past and defies her fate, she’ll face the most dangerous choice of all: fight for the crown or surrender to a devastating love that could be her undoing.
