Sinopsis

“—Icarus isn't back yet,” Andromeda commented, adjusting the gears with her fingers. His pale hands have turned black, smeared to the wrists with grease- And the sun is almost setting. Ianthe stared at the Exiled Princess. The ominous wind of that dying afternoon blew dark hair against her face with the same gravity with which a condemned man would draw his last breath. "He has to hurry," Ianthe murmured. "The moon is waning." Bad things happen in the dark.” The Dead Goddess, the Fallen Angel, and the Exiled Princess are the last keepers of the Lighthouse, which protects the mortal realm from darkness.

Lady Evangeline Greystone believes that attraction is just chemistry: dopamine and adrenaline. The daughter of a duke, a mathematician by training, and the owner of an entirely planned life, she spends a few days in Las Vegas, away from her family and the spotlight, when she meets in a dark bar a man with a dominant gaze who says no more than his first name. Four nights of sex, secrets, and anonymity later, each goes their own way, certain that it is over. A month later, two pink lines change everything. And he is not just a man with secrets: he is the crown prince of Azhar, and her baby is the future of a kingdom. Now there is a palace, a kingdom, and a single demand: marry. Not for love, but out of duty.

"The fire in the hearth never truly goes out. It merely waits for new firewood." Apparently abandoned, this old mansion harbors countless horrors, and those who dare to explore its secrets may discover that the greatest danger lurks not only between its walls, but also among themselves. Whether because they received a mysterious invitation, because a friend disappeared, or simply out of curiosity to explore the manor, everyone will eventually discover that, inside, nothing happens by chance — except, perhaps, the arrangement of the rooms. If they want to survive, they will need to pay attention to every detail and unravel the residence's greatest secret before it is too late. But one question remains: why, with each new visit, does the fire in the hearth seem to burn more intensely?
