Iris awakens with a century erased from her memory, haunted only by the certainty that she was once stripped of her will and reshaped into something less than human—a weapon bound to the will of Bakis. Fleeing her unseen master, she slips across borders and through centuries of secrecy, discovering a world that was deliberately kept from her grasp.

Her freedom is brief. Recaptured and bartered away to a powerful Baron, Iris finds herself entangled in a silent war where gold buys loyalty, blood fuels power, and lives are expendable. As ancient forces stir, she forms uneasy alliances with a witch who traffics in forbidden knowledge and a werewolf cursed by his own savagery.

Hunted by mercenaries and shadowed by Bakis’s merciless wrath, Iris must choose whether to remain a creature of obedience—or become something far more dangerous. Escape may be possible… but the cost could be far worse than chains.

Step into a world where ancient secrets whisper in the dark, alliances are forged in blood, and survival demands transformation. This haunting vampire tale is perfect for readers drawn to dark fantasy steeped in mystery, danger, and forbidden power.
