Dark academia isn't the aesthetic. It's the cover-up. You must stitch the monster inside you before the empire tears you apart....
The Abyss King was scattered across the operating table when Sylvia was ordered to save him—or die beside him. One forbidden stitch later, his soul slammed into hers, and his voice awakened inside her mind: “You are my vessel now.” A disgraced prisoner, Sylvia is the only person who can control the monster whose body she rebuilt. But Cassian can feel every touch, every fear, every forbidden desire—and he wants her body, her loyalty, and his stolen throne. Hunted by the merciless Inquisitor Augustus, they must escape together while uncovering why Sylvia was framed and why the empire wants Cassian alive. Now Augustus has called Cassian by his true king-name—will Sylvia trust the monster inside her, or let the empire tear them apart?
