Death's Blessing

By Derick pennington

He steals life itself.
A cursed child left to die in a forest has become something predatory. Something dangerous. Darius Silvertin remembers his death from a previous life-remembers the knife across his throat, the betrayal, the agony. Now reborn with dark magic flowing through his veins, he hunts the family that abandoned him. Methodically. Intelligently. With the patience of a predator who knows exactly how to tear apart everything they've built.
His strategy is precise: three pillars of power. Three steps to destruction. His family will fall, and he will watch it happen from the shadows.
But then he acquires Kaelith-a broken slave meant to be nothing more than a tool to prevent betrayal. Except she reads him in ways he can't control. She challenges him. She makes him question the hunger that's consumed him since birth.
And somehow, in the space between revenge and something he can't name, Darius finds himself capable of wanting more than destruction.
The question isn't whether he'll destroy his family. The question is what he'll become in the aftermath.
