The Warmth That Holds

The Veil is falling. The rot has won. And the beast has only one choice left.

Lyra Wren survived her thirty days as a captive in Thorngate. She survived the crushing darkness, the terrifying monsters, and the agonizing truth about the Blight. But she didn't survive the beast. Kael Dusk, the towering, ancient Warden of the Veil, has claimed her heart-and their volatile, intertwined magic is the only thing keeping the world from total annihilation.

But the ancient Accord is failing faster than anyone predicted. The shadow-tears are ripping open, bleeding apocalyptic gray ash into both the human realm and Duskhold. The temporary fixes won't work anymore.

To save their dying worlds, Lyra and Kael must do the impossible: descend directly into the lethal, beating heart of the Veil itself. It is a suicide mission into a realm of chaotic, primal magic where human bodies are not meant to survive.

As the agonizing pressure of the magical borderland tests Lyra's fragile humanity and pushes Kael's beast instincts to their absolute limits, they must forge a new Accord-not with blood or treaties, but with their own souls. If they fail, both worlds will turn to ash. If they succeed, it will cost them everything.
