The gods made the rules. Kit Kingston is about to break them.

Kit was never meant to survive, let alone fight back. But with her power rising and her bonds—Jace, Cade, Micah, Ash, and the enigmatic Gabriel Carter—at her side, she refuses to be anyone's pawn. Not anymore.

Then Gabriel vanished. Taken. Tortured. And Kit knows—this isn't just another battle. It's a warning. A message written in ancient magic and modern threats: some rules were never meant to be broken.

To get him back, Kit and her bonds must unravel the secrets that have kept them trapped for centuries. But the deeper they dig, the more dangerous the truth becomes. Old enemies are closing in. Ancient pacts are unraveling. And something far more powerful than the Covenant is watching from the shadows, waiting to remind them why the divine order has remained unchallenged for millennia.

With time running out and forces beyond their control stacking the odds against them, Kit has one chance to end this cycle before it ends them first. One shot at breaking the chains that have bound them across countless lifetimes. One moment to prove that love isn't just stronger than fate—it's stronger than the gods themselves.

The gods never expected her to rise. They definitely didn't expect her to win.

And they're about to learn why you should never underestimate a siphon with nothing left to lose.
