Every breath he took, every enemy he struck down, carved his path in poison and vengeance. But everything changed the night he saved her—a courtesan cloaked in mystery and beauty, with secrets deeper than her smile. She gave him his first taste of love... and cursed him forever.

Because somewhere in the chaos, the courtesan vanished... and left behind a single message: “They were never after me… They were after you.”
