Summary
 Lucien Thorne was not cursed by a spell of mercy but by grief and blood. When his wife and daughter were stolen from him, the world demanded vengeance. The Serpent-Crown delivered it in thorns, binding him to shadow and hunger, transforming him into a creature who feeds on pain. His castle rots with him, its halls alive, its roses dripping with venom, its walls hung with ghosts.Into this prison comes Annabel, chained by a bargain and branded with the Beasts mark. She expects cruelty. She expects torment. What she does not expect is firethe dangerous spark that burns when defiance meets despair. Each encounter with the Beast drags her deeper into his curse, where hatred trembles on the edge of desire, and tenderness is more terrifying than claws.But the Serpent-Crown still watches, eager to claim their vessel. And if Annabel cannot break the thorns strangling him, the man inside will vanish forever.In this castle, salvation and damnation wear the same face. And falling in love may be the most dangerous fate of all.©2026 Amy Cecil (P)2026 Amy Cecil
