On her twenty-fifth birthday, Mira Vale watches in horror as every mirror in her ancestral home turns to impenetrable black, signaling the arrival of a debt collector unlike any other. Raised on a lifetime of cryptic rules and veiled threats, Mira suddenly finds herself face-to-face with Adrian Thorne, a dangerously composed man with silver eyes and an ancient mark on his skin, who claims her family is merely property. He's here to collect on a centuries-old bargain, a dark pact that has kept the Vales alive but demands a chilling payment every twenty-five years. As the house trembles and whispers from behind the blackened glass, Mira must confront the terrifying truth of her lineage and the man who holds her family's fate in his hands. But what price will she pay to protect those she loves, and can she ever escape a debt that has already chosen its next victim?
