Sworn to the Darkness
(2026)(The second book in the Lords of the Undercity series)
A novel by Jesi Donovan
I chose to stay. That was supposed to be the hard part. Turns out, the hard part is becoming something that isn't human anymore.
My senses are sharpening. My blood is changing. And the four lords who were never supposed to matter to me? They're the only ones who can teach me what I'm turning into.
Vin's lessons require trust I haven't earned and closeness I can't fake.
Nero is cracking open, and he blames me for every fracture.
Mikhail trains me like war is already here, then touches me like I'm the only soft thing he's ever been allowed to hold.
Stellan gives me his secrets, all of them, and asks for nothing in return — which is how I know he's asking for everything.
But the Sovereignty knows what I am now.
They're sending someone to collect me. Someone who knows my bloodline better than I do. Someone who's been waiting for this moment longer than I've been alive.
Four lords at my back. A war at my door. And the growing suspicion that the woman coming to destroy me has answers I'm not ready to hear.
I was their prisoner. Then their weapon. Now I'm the reason they'll fight.
Tropes: why choose, possessive heroes, found family, touch her and die, enemies to lovers
Genre: Paranormal Romance
