   Summary

   “She ran to Sussex to escape him, but Sebastian has always known how to follow her into the dark.”

   Isolde Galadriel flees London for Sussex, convinced she can outpace Sebastian Annatar-Halbrand and the ruin he left behind. But Sebastian is everywhere—in memory, in shadow, in the heat of every secret thought. His power isn’t just in what he does, but in how he makes her crave and fear him in equal measure.

   Adar’s calm brutality resurfaces, a ghost returned to tear open scars that never healed. Cele’s brilliance curdles into rage, her grief twisting her love into something sharp enough to cut. And Elrond, carrying twenty years of silent vows, holds the line against enemies that wear familiar faces—protecting Cele, protecting Izzy, even as both slip further into the dark.

   Desire becomes a weapon. Lies fester into chains. Rings are not adornments but bindings, pulling them all into a spiral of control and surrender.

   There is no clean escape. Only the choice of which shadow to belong to.
