Overview: He seduced noblewomen for survival. Now he must seduce death itself—or watch his mother die.
Thorne Blackwood is Eldrath’s most infamous bastard: silver-tongued thief, legendary seducer, and professional survivor. When his mother contracts the incurable Crimson Rot, he discovers the only cure lies in the cursed ruins of Drakmoor—guarded by a mad dragon and requiring a price no sane person would pay.
The price? Eternal imprisonment as guardian of the Voidgate, saying “no” to cosmic chaos for centuries until madness offers mercy through forgetting.
But Thorne isn’t traveling alone. Two desperate women join his quest, each seeking the same miracle for their own dying loved ones. One Heart. Three needs. Only one can win—and the winner doesn’t get salvation. They get damnation.
Sable Frostclad, the exiled barbarian warrior with flame-red hair and a brother cursed by cowardly shamans. Lirien Silverbow, the disgraced elven archer whose people burn on corrupted ground they refuse to acknowledge. Both beautiful. Both deadly. Both willing to do anything to claim the Heart first.
Between ancient dragons who speak in riddles and demand carnal prices, succubi knights who test worthiness through pleasure, and a shadow conspiracy that’s been orchestrating Thorne’s damnation since birth, the journey becomes a gauntlet of impossible choices wrapped in silk sheets and bloodstained steel.
What they’ll face:Dragon riddles where wrong answers mean death (or worse)Trials that measure desire, sacrifice, and how much suffering love is truly worthA three-way competition between companions who develop feelings they can’t affordThe terrible mathematics of choosing one person’s salvation over everyone else’sWhat’s really at stake: Not just one mother’s life or one brother’s curse or one civilization’s survival—but reality itself. Because if no one accepts the binding, the Voidgate fails within days, and existence becomes impossible. As if none of it ever was.”The fox became the watchdog. The thief stole his own freedom. And the chain goes on forever.”Perfect for fans of:Morally complex antiheroes who seduce their way through impossible oddsFound family that has to betray each other when the math gets cruelDark fantasy where love isn’t enough and sacrifice costs everythingDragons with PhDs in philosophy and traumaEndings that hurt in all the right waysContent Warning: This is an adult fantasy with explicit content, mature themes, and a protagonist whose survival strategy involves frequent seduction. Contains graphic intimate scenes, violence, dark themes including terminal illness, and an ending that chooses bittersweet truth over comfortable lies.
