The Mirror of Blood and Madness

Find me.
The words stalk my dreams—then whisper from a mirror that suddenly appears out of nowhere.
My magic has never been stable, and the coven is one mistake away from casting me out.
Banished. Alone. Vulnerable.
So when the mirror materializes in the Nightshade Crypt and breathes those same haunting words, every instinct says to run.
I don’t.
The moment I touch the glass, it shatters into a portal and drags me into the Elder Dimension—a realm of twisted magic ruled by a queen who wants me dead and the man she failed to break.
Darius Acosta.
The Mad Hatter.
A vanished Golden Demon with silver eyes like fractured moonlight and a mind unraveling by the second.
He doesn’t trust me. I shouldn’t crave him. But something dangerous binds us together—and in this realm, he’d burn everything before letting anyone else lay a hand on me.
