Blood-Vow Kingdom

 The Blood-Vow Kingdomby Jess RaeA kingdom built on blood.A throne that should never be claimed.And a woman born to break every chain.Tressa Veyne was never meant to be queen. Hidden in a quiet village and raised among herbs, goats, and secrets, she wanted nothing to do with crowns or old magic—until her blood woke the dead and marked her as the last heir of a cursed line.Dain Corveth was the king's monster. The Iron Wolf. A cursed blade in Maelor's hand. Feared, hated, and bound by an oath he never chose.When Tressa's power and Dain's curse collide, they uncover a kingdom rotting beneath its own throne—dead queens, stolen children, temple horrors, bloodline prisons, and ancient magic hungry enough to wear the face of mercy.To save Veyr, Tressa and Dain must do the one thing no ruler before them dared.Refuse the crown.But every refusal has a cost.
