Treasure-hunter Soren breaks into the mountain for gold—and finds Aurelia, the golden spirit sworn to keep it from the greedy. He expects a monster or a myth. Instead, he meets a woman bound to a dying vault that is tearing the world apart.
Every vein of gold is a wound she feels. Every choice he’s made has been to save his own skin. To heal the vault, they must walk into its heart together… and let it rewrite them both.
As the mountain tests his hunger, his worth, and his capacity to bear its power, Soren has to choose what—and who—he’s willing to sacrifice. Aurelia can taste freedom for the first time, but claiming a mortal life may cost him his.
When the last binding snaps and the world’s gold is no longer god, they’ll emerge changed, marked, and terrifyingly human. The real question isn’t whether they can save the vault.
It’s whether they can trust their fragile hearts more than the promise of power.
