I came back different.
Not born, but made. Stronger. Sharper. Maybe I should be devastated by the choice that was made for me. Instead, I feel powerful. Capable. Invincible.
But nothing about this new life matters if I can’t find Ares.
He’s unraveling—slipping into darkness, losing time, and leaving blood in his wake. The man I love is becoming something monstrous, and no one knows how to stop it.
But I swear I will. Even if I have to tear apart everything else in my life to bring him back.
New enemies are closing in, and the streets I’ve always called home are starting to feel like a targeted minefield as history repeats itself. This world is so much bigger than I ever realized, its shadows darker, its origins more sinister. But it’s the betrayals that cut the deepest—the ones I never saw coming.
In a blood-driven system of power, politics, and predators, love may not be enough to save us all.
