In high-fantasy Anterra, skill with potions decides who rises, and mine was rare enough to promise greatness.
That future ended with one fatal trust: Jax, the werewolf who stole my heart and tore the rest of my life apart.
My family was murdered, my virtue shattered, my potions and career taken, and my freedom stripped away.
I wake each sunrise with nothing to sustain me but retribution.
Survival matters only because vengeance still does.
