The Bloomed Realms

Her roses bleed black, her manor whispers, and the Veil never stops calling her name—until a masked stranger arrives with a dying bloom that weeps gold.

Elira Veyne is the last of a bloodline sworn to guard the line between worlds. The day her visions shattered, her estate rotted with her… and the rumors began: the Veyne grounds devour souls, and its lone daughter is too cursed to save.

Elion Kael doesn’t care about rumors. A ruin is still a door, and he is running out of time. A hereditary curse is blooming inside his family, choking heirs from within—and only the “mad and miraculous” oracle in the black-rose garden might sever it. But Elira’s magic is a wound, not a gift, and every spell drags her closer to the gods that broke her.

To break the pact poisoning Elion’s bloodline, they must step into the Hollow Veil—where memory hunts, bargains bite, and ancient love curdles into vengeance. Bound by a sigil, stalked by something that remembers their names, Elira and Elion race a curse that evolves with every heartbeat.

If she fails, his line ends.

If she succeeds, she may lose herself all over again.
