***Please note this story ends on a cliffhanger***

Four elemental kings. Ruined kingdoms soaked in blood. A rebellion betrayed. One woman who will destroy the world.

Mason

Lust is his weapon, and secrets are his currency. The Corrupted King of the Western Isles has spent years smiling, masking slow rots of grief beneath silk sheets and flirty smirks. Mason has no men, women or something in between. Everyone falls into his bed and under his spell. He weaves a dangerous web, seeking his mother's murder's head. Mason plans to catch the killer—starting with the one man who might be his equal in power and Rion.

Kaito

The Silent King of the Eastern Isles has never spoken more than a few words. Not because he can’t—but because silence is safer. In a court where obedience is survival and emotion is weakness, Kaito learned to make stillness his armor. Beneath Kaito's calm exterior lies a soul fraying at the edges, twisted by years of emotional torment because Kaito is different. He’s dangerous. And above all, he’s in love with the wrong Mason.

Rion

The Malefic King of the North was forged in lightning and rage, born under a storm and raised by a man who won't die. Once a feared lightning wielder, now his father is something a immortal man wearing a crown in everything but name, haunting Rion’s court like a never-ending hurricane. Power in the North is earned through blood, and Rion is ready to spill his father’s. If he can beat the curse, the throne will be his. No one, including Mason, will stand in his way.

Adrian

The Demented King of the South is more myth than man. His volatile power can't be restrained, radiating from him like an overwhelming geyser. It’s not something controllable, and it devours him. No one standing close to Adrian walks away unchanged, and some never leave at all. Kept in forced isolation, a palace of empty rooms with no windows and only one door, Adrian is on the border of insanity. Until one day, he decides it's time for him to cure whatever it is overtaking him.

Johari

Born with little more than a flicker of ice in a world ruled by roaring storms, booming noises, vicious attacks and burning skies, Johari was dismissed from the moment she first drew breath. A weak ice wielder in a world of rebels is unimportant on anyone's scale. Yet she didn’t need power. Johari trained her body to become a weapon in the way her elemental abilities could never measure. Johari doesn’t want glory. She doesn't even want love anymore, not from her runaway mother or her abusive father. She only wants one to save her little brother and her stepmother.

When the leader of the rebellion makes a deal to end a millennium-long war with the people of the Isles, a traitor among them destroys everything, leaving death in their wake.

The four kings are fractured, each broken by an unbalanced element.

A woman they unknowingly tried to erase may be the one to end them all.

When the stars begin to align, which king will Johari set her sights on?

Welcome to the Isles.
