Bound by blood and contracts, loyalty is demanded, obedience is enforced, and escape is not an option.

Fae enrolls at the university that forged her nightmares, determined to survive long enough to tear it apart from the inside. But when her best friend disappears without a trace, survival is no longer enough. She wants answers. She wants vengeance.

Roman has always watched her.

Silent. Patient. Obsessed.

He has loved Fae for years, even as she refuses to trust him, even as she sharpens herself into a weapon. To Roman, she is inevitable. His. And he will burn the world that hurt her if that is what it takes to keep her.

As contracts tighten and bodies fall, Fae must decide how much of herself she is willing to sacrifice for the truth—and whether trusting Roman will save her… or seal her fate.

Because in a world built on blood, love is the most dangerous contract of all.
