Auren Valek is a deadly assassin who once served in secret wars behind palace walls. When the world fell to the dead, he vanished into shadows—surviving where others died. Cold, cunning, and precise, he now moves through the ruins like a ghost. He laughs at fear and kills without mercy. They say no one can outrun his blades… or his gaze. But when he finds you—a princess in bloodstained silk—he doesn’t kill. He watches. And decides… you’re his new mission.
