The Blood That Forgave

Aurelian has lived centuries in shadow, immortal yet isolated, a legend feared and misunderstood. For centuries, he has carried the weight of his choices—the blood spilled, the lives ended, the consequences endured alone.

When Lucien appears, a man tied to a past crime Aurelian thought buried, the immortal finds himself confronted with a truth he cannot deny: forgiveness is not weakness—and love is not bound by eternity.

Forced to flee the Covenant of Ash, hunted and condemned, Aurelian and Lucien navigate a world of blood, power, and secrets, where every choice carries unimaginable consequence. Through blood rituals that expose memory, intimacy without desire, and confessions that defy centuries of myth, they discover that release can be stronger than vengeance—and mercy can alter even the most immutable of curses.

In the end, Aurelian must decide what kind of immortal he will be—not defined by fear, not bound by ash, but by the courage to choose, again and again, the life and love he never thought possible.

A tale of forbidden passion, eternal consequence, and the transformative power of forgiveness.
