Three Dark Kings Bound by the Gilded Serpent

I learned the Frost Kingdom's rules by heart: listen for quiet threats, expect betrayal, and never ask for help.

Survival in that frozen land meant chasing the Frost King's secrets, only to find the true danger blooming as a hollow darkness in my soul that only the hottest flame could banish.

Now the Ember King comes with fire in his hands and vengeance in his heart, and one dangerous kiss from him could burn my world to ash.

The secret I never saw coming is a blood bind strong enough to expose every deception and bring three dark fae kings to ruin, tying me to the one who shares my lifeblood, the one who answers my longing, and the one who could call down the shadows that end us.

Forced close to each morally gray king, I am drawn into a slow, searing desire for all of them, and I will not have to choose unless fate makes me.
