Getting close to the king will kill him.
After saving her village with the Dagger of Protection, Aldora's village hoped peace might finally return. But when a blood-gifted killer called Jules arrives with a grudge and a deadly plan, that hope shatters fast, and the village doubts Aldora’s ability to protect them.
Meanwhile, Raneth (still chasing violent criminals across the kingdom) is abruptly summoned to escort the king to a crucial royal summit.
When the king is kidnapped and Raneth is nearly killed, he and Aldora must reunite to face Jules and rescue the king, and all while a lethal curse threatens to destroy Raneth before he can complete his mission.
Trust is tested. Magic is blood-thirsty. And the cost of failure this time… could be everything.
