For three hundred years, the kingdom of Vethros has hunted fire. Seraphel Thornwood has survived by becoming invisible. A palace seamstress by day, she hides a forbidden magic that would see her burned alive if discovered. Every Veiled Moon, fire rises in her blood—wild, ancient, and deadly—and every time, she forces it back down. Survival depends on silence. Until the night her control breaks. When Seraphel's fire erupts inside the palace, it is witnessed by the one man who should destroy her: Lord Commander Darian Voss, the feared enforcer of the Veil. Instead of turning her in, he does the unthinkable—he protects her. And in doing so, he fractures the beliefs that have defined his life. As secrets surface, Seraphel learns her magic is no accident. Her bloodline predates the Veil itself, tied to a hidden resistance and a legacy powerful enough to unmake the kingdom's foundations. Trapped between noble surveillance, underground revolutionaries, and a prophecy written in fire, she must decide whether to keep hiding—or to burn the system that enslaved her kind. Bound by truth, danger, and a connection neither expected, Seraphel and Darian stand on opposite sides of a war that is no longer invisible. Because some fires were never meant to be buried. And some truths demand to be seen.
