The Cost of Claiming Beauty

Saving Liath requires him to become his father's heir and weapon, the monster a whole childhood was spent carving out of him.

Each day he remains inside that order, coldness, ruthlessness, and cruelty replace another piece of the man he swore he would never be.

Terrible things already mark his past, yet none of them has taken this much from him.

His father then demands the unthinkable, and he goes through with it knowing she will never forgive him.

In a dark gothic love triangle built around two morally gray antiheroes, she may have to decide whether anything left of him is still worth loving.
