I was forged for obedience.
But it was no match for her love.
My orders were clear:
Find the Purna witch.
Bind her.
Break her if I have to.
But Elira is not what they said she’d be.
She’s fire and prophecy wrapped in a trembling mouth that defies me.
She holds power the world should fear—and eyes that make me forget my oath.
I was supposed to drag her to Orthani in chains.
Instead, I burn to protect her.
The gargoyles are waking. The Red Purnas want war. The Overlord wants her power.
And me?
I want her breathless beneath me.
Begging.
They sent me to claim a weapon.
Now I’d burn the world before I let anyone else touch what’s mine.
