In the heart of Verenthia, power is not merely inherited; it is sustained by a centuries-old deception. The Immortal's Bargain invites you into a Regency world of high-society elegance and lethal shadows, where the preservation of a throne depends on a secret that has outlived generations.
Mira Vael is the ultimate instrument of the Syndicate: a highly trained assassin groomed since childhood to be the correction to an unnatural reign. Disguised as a provincial ward, she enters the opulent Grand Saloon of Ashenvale Palace with a single objective: to end the life of Kael Ashenvane. Kael is the Sovereign of the Verenthian Realm, a man the court believes to be the fourth of his name, but whom the Guild knows to be the same immortal monarch who signed the original Blood Tithe three centuries ago.
However, the mission fractures the moment Mira makes contact. Instead of a heartless tyrant, she finds a man burdened by an agonizing, centuries-old exhaustion-a king who listens with unsettling attention and possesses a face that has learned the precise cost of every expression. When a chance encounter triggers a binding mark on Mira's wrist, she discovers she is no longer just a hunter. She is bound to her quarry by an ancient, flesh-and-blood magic that predates the law.
As a rival conspiracy emerges to end them both, Mira must navigate a court of powdered perfection where every smile hides a knife. Forced into an uneasy alliance with the man she was born to kill, she uncovers the truth behind the Old Compact and the forty-three assassins who preceded her. In a world where duty is a leash and loyalty is a weapon, Mira must decide if she will remain a mechanism of the past or become the architect of her own destiny.
Experience a breathtaking Regency Romantasy where the most dangerous thing isn't the blade at your throat-it's the recognition in an enemy's eyes.
