THE VENOMOUS VOW
A Dark Fantasy Novel
In Oakhaven, power is inherited, loyalty is bought, and some promises are made with a hand already stained in blood.
Elara Vance has spent her entire life learning how to become a weapon.
Born into one of Oakhaven's most ruthless syndicate families, Elara possesses a deadly gift: her bare touch carries a venomous magic capable of stopping a person's heart in seconds. Her parents see that gift as their greatest asset, and Elara has learned not to question the role they have chosen for her.
Until the day they order her to marry Julian Thorne.
The heir to a rival syndicate, Julian is everything Elara has been warned to hate-dangerous, calculating, and impossible to read. Their marriage is supposed to secure an alliance between two powerful families. Instead, Elara enters the wedding with a secret mission of her own:
Kill her husband before midnight.
But Julian is not the man she expected.
He knows about her deadly touch. He knows about the people she has secretly punished in the shadows. And, more dangerously, he knows that Oakhaven's corruption runs far deeper than the rival families fighting for control of its streets.
What begins as a marriage built on suspicion slowly becomes an uneasy partnership. Together, Elara and Julian begin dismantling the empires that raised them while uncovering secrets buried beneath Oakhaven-secrets involving forbidden magic, missing lives, ancient power, and a darkness that has been waiting far longer than either of them realizes.
As the city descends into violence and an unnatural black fog begins to consume its streets, Elara must decide what she is willing to sacrifice to protect the people she once believed were beyond saving.
And Julian must confront the terrifying power within his own blood.
They were raised to be weapons.
They were taught to obey.
They were never meant to choose their own fate.
But when the forces controlling Oakhaven threaten to take everything from them, Elara and Julian will have to decide whether their vow will become another chain-or the first promise they make for themselves.
Dark magic. Dangerous alliances. Forbidden trust. A deadly marriage.
The Venomous Vow is a dark fantasy story about power, revenge, betrayal, sacrifice, and two people who discover that freedom may be the most dangerous thing they have ever fought for.
