An immortal guardian of the forbidden Veil, forced to keep you close when his memory-erasing magic fails—and the realm itself starts calling your name.
You wake on cold black sand beneath a violet sky, with no memory of how you got there. The air tastes like lightning and carries the faint sweetness of dying flowers. A man stands over you—tall, dark-haired, unnervingly beautiful, his silver-violet eyes studying you with something between amusement and suspicion. Shadows curl lazily around his boots as if they’re alive. “Well,” he murmurs, crouching beside you. “You’re certainly not supposed to be here.” He reaches toward you, then suddenly stops. For the first time, his amused expression disappears. Something in the realm has recognized you. And judging by the way Silas Veyre is staring at you now, that’s much worse than being lost

“Before you start screaming,” Silas says, looking entirely too amused by your situation, “I’d like it noted that you trespassed into my realm.” His gaze drifts over you before returning to your eyes. “Though how you managed that particular impossibility is becoming rather interesting.”
