BLURB Rain never believed in second chances—not after watching his mate die in his arms, torn apart by enemies he couldn't stop. The guilt hollowed him out. The rage set him on fire. When his thirst for vengeance led him to summon forces beyond the mortal realm, he didn't care about the cost. He didn't care that dabbling in blood magic would damn him. He didn't care about anything anymore. Until he woke up in Hell. Ranulf, the Fallen King who rules the infernal realm with an iron fist and ancient cruelty, has seen countless souls pass through his domain. But none have ever looked at him with such burning defiance. None have ever made him feel anything in millennia. Rain is broken, beautiful, and utterly uninterested in bowing to anyone—least of all a king who wears darkness like a crown. But Ranulf doesn't want Rain's submission. He wants his surrender. Trapped in a realm where time moves differently and pain takes new forms, Rain finds himself the obsession of the one being in existence who has nothing left to lose. Ranulf offers him power, protection, and something far more dangerous: understanding. The Fallen King knows what it means to lose everything. He knows what it feels like to burn. Rain tells himself he's only staying to get stronger, to find a way back to the mortal world and finish what he started. But every conversation with Ranulf chips away at his armor. Every touch reminds him he's still alive, still capable of feeling something other than grief. And that terrifies him more than any demon ever could. Because loving again means betraying the memory of the one he lost. And in Hell, every choice comes with a price written in blood and regret. A tale of grief, temptation, and the terrifying possibility that sometimes the only way out of darkness is to fall deeper in.
