I survived the bullet in Manchester.
Barely.
The world thinks recovery is measured in stitches and scars, but no one warns you what happens when death changes you from the inside out. My voice is gone, my body no longer feels like my own, and the men sworn to protect me are unraveling beside me.
Jaxon was always my shield. Ruthless. Possessive. Unbreakable.
Now the weight of failing to save me is slowly destroying him.
As enemies close in from the shadows, betrayal festers inside the very people I would have burned the world down for. Trust fractures. Loyalty blurs. And the bond tying us together begins evolving into something ancient…something none of us fully understands. Because I didn’t come back from death alone.
Arik and Cedar were never supposed to become part of this twisted, fragile thing between us, yet during the moments my heart stopped beating, something in my soul reached for them anyway.
Now we’re bound by grief, vengeance, obsession, and a connection that feels far older than this life.
But healing was never meant to be gentle.
And revenge?
Revenge always demands blood.
