Vows of Blood and Deception

She won the war. But winning came at a cost she never expected. Rose Finch returned to the court of Aethelgard as a celebrated heroine, the woman who had turned the tide against the Shadow Court and saved the kingdom from annihilation. The nobles praised her, the people adored her, and the crown welcomed her with open arms. But behind the golden walls of the palace, whispers followed her like shadows. Her family's tragic death, the mysterious relic they had guarded, the ancient magic that pulsed in her blood—all of it had been buried beneath layers of lies and deception. When a secret message arrives in the dead of night, Rose is forced to confront the truth she has always suspected: her family's death was no accident. Someone erased them from history. Someone has been manipulating the kingdom for generations. And the answers she seeks are hidden in a relic that has been lost for centuries—a relic that only the Last Blood Heir can find. But she is not alone in her search. Prince Kyor, the man who once kissed her in the heat of battle and then walked away, has been watching from the shadows. He swore an oath to the crown, to his family, to everything Rose despises. Yet he cannot stay away. He has seen too much, discovered too many secrets, and fallen too deeply to let her face the darkness alone. But trust is a fragile thing, and the betrayals that shattered them may be impossible to mend. As ancient magic awakens and dark forces close in, Rose must navigate a world of political intrigue, forbidden passion, and a conspiracy that reaches the very heart of the throne. The relic calls to her blood. The wolves answer her command. And a forgotten goddess whispers a warning that could destroy everything she believes. The greatest traitor isn't her enemy. The greatest traitor is someone she trusts. Forced to choose between vengeance and mercy, hatred and love, the past and the future, Rose must decide who she truly wants to become—and what she is willing to sacrifice for the truth.
