But when the noble Elara claims to be his destined mate, Silas turns Lyra into a nameless human prisoner, destroys her face, and leaves her bleeding for another woman’s lies. Lyra buys her own death, escapes as Zoe Miller, and rebuilds a dangerous new life in Grayiron Town. When Silas discovers the truth, his regret becomes obsession. But the woman he finds is no longer his Lyra. She is free, scarred, and done begging to be loved.
