Blurb
They called me wicked. Unholy. A girl too proud to be a wife.
​
So they tied my hands, led me to the scaffold, and prayed the rope would silence me.
​
But I’d already made my choice.
​
To save the only soul I loved, I offered mine in return.
​
A deal made beneath the church that damned me. Signed in blood. Not meant for witnesses.
​
But someone saw, and no one stays discreet in Salem.
​
They said I’d hang by morning. Let them try.
​
Because when the noose pulled tight, something older than faith answered.
​
Eyes like embers. A presence that split the world in two the moment he appeared.
​
He appeared when the world turned its back. An angel of darkness, answering no prayer but mine.
​
He wasn’t there to save me. He was there to make sure they never forgot the woman I am about to become.
​
And that should terrify them more than any noose ever could.
