Overview

Amara

I’ve spent my life locked in a cage of expectations. My parents raised me to be perfect—graceful, obedient, a child worthy of the two most powerful members of the Seekers, one of the secret societies that rules this city. But then Morgana Lefae storms into my life, all dark eyes and wicked smiles, and suddenly, I’m burning for rebellion, for escape from my neat, structured little life and all its airless trappings. Morgana says she wants to escape the Masque, the secret society steeped in dark power and corruption that her family founded centuries ago. The secret society that the Seekers exist to keep in check. I should run. I should say no. But I don’t. Because Morgana makes me feel alive.

Amara Honeywell is everything I shouldn’t want—innocent, sheltered, and far too trusting. But she’s also the key to everything I need. Her parents are Seekers, sworn enemies of the Masque, the secret society my ancestors created. I’m supposed to inherit my father’s seat at the Council and carry on my family's legacy, but there are plenty of people who would kill me to see that fate halted in its track. Amara’s the answer. If I can get close to her, I can finally tip the balance of power. So I weave my lies. I make her believe she can save me. Then, I seal our fate with a blood vow—one that binds her to me until death. A vow that allows me to use my powerful magic without fear of consequence.

I never should have trusted Morgana. The moment the blade cuts our skin, I know I’ve made a mistake. Because Morgana never planned to escape. She planned to take me. Now, I’m trapped in her world—an opulent, shadowed mansion where pleasure and danger intertwine. She calls me hers. And worst of all? A part of me likes it.

Amara was supposed to be a means to an end. A pawn. But Amara is undoing me. Her softness, her fire—I want it all. I want her. And when the Seekers come to rip her from my grasp, I realize the one thing I never planned for: losing her might just destroy me.
