The cure was supposed to be the end of it.
After two decades of searching, sacrifice, and secrets that spanned two worlds, the Thrakorians finally had what they came for. The disease was beaten. The future was open. For the first time, something like peace felt possible.
Then Vasa decided to burn it all down.
Kronus's sister doesn't want peace. She wants power - and she's willing to start a war with her own father to take it. With Kronus and his heir seized as her leverage, the carefully built world he fought so hard to protect begins to fracture from within.
But Gretchen isn't waiting.
She didn't survive everything she's survived, love who she loves, and build the life she's building just to watch it be taken from her by a coup she never saw coming. Kronus's betrothed is done being patient. Done being careful.
Some things are worth going to war for.
And she's about to prove it.
