The Bloodbound Trials: A Blood-Bonded Enemies-to-Lovers Romantasy of Deadly Trials, Betrayal, and Scorching Fate

By: Ahmed, Magdi Abdullah

Only one bonded pair survives the Bloodbound Trials. Too bad Elara is tied-body, pulse, and every shiver of want-to the heir she swore to destroy.

When the Bloodmark chooses its candidates, pain and pleasure are shared across the bond. Elara enters the arena for revenge; Kael enters to inherit a crown. Bound together by the mark, every cut she takes burns him. Every heartbeat he misses steals her breath. If one dies, so does the other.

The Four Houses demand a champion. The Trials demand blood. Rivals sabotage, councils scheme, and the bond ignites into something neither of them can deny. To survive, they must fight as one-while the very magic tying them together threatens to shatter them apart.
