Burning Shadows

She was meant to destroy the king.

Now she might carry his child.

The Order of the Krigers has awakened—and the tyrant king, Morlet, will burn the world to find them.

Village by village, he hunts the twelve chosen warriors meant to end his reign. But Kaia, the last and most powerful of them all, is no longer just his target. She’s his obsession.

To break the ancient curse binding them, Kaia must do the unthinkable: bear a child before the Krigers strike their final blow. But the prophecy is unclear—who is the father meant to be? Her loyal fiancé, Vidar? Or the dark king whose touch both terrifies and tempts her?

Desperate for answers, Kaia flees into the mountains with Anders, the assassin who once swore to protect her. But the deeper she ventures into forbidden lands, the more tangled her heart becomes—and the more fragile her cause.

Because Morlet is no longer just a monster in her story.

And the truth behind the curse may unravel everything she thought she was fighting for.

In a world ruled by blood and fate, love might be the most dangerous weapon of all.
