She came back from the dead to rewrite her fate... Micai thought surviving Wensridge Academy the second time around would be different. She was stronger, smarter, and far less willing to suffer quietly. She was in control. Then Annex Porter happened. Reckless, relentless, and hiding secrets —he was never part of the plan. Neither was the bond now tethering them together, whether she wants it or not. But something is moving in the shadows behind the academy's ancient stone walls. Bigger than those who broke her. Bigger than the revenge she came back for. And if Micai doesn't discover who is hunting her—and fast—it won't just be her heart on the line. Some bonds are forged in fire. Others are blackened by it. A Blackened Bond is the second book of The Blackened Blade series, and a why-choose fantasy romance. It's full of action, revenge and five dark and damaged love interests. It contains adult themes throughout. Perfect for fans of Jaymin Eve, J. Bree and Gothikana .
