“You thought death finished me. But death only taught me how to strike.”

Born into House Vernhardt, a family of elemental prodigies, Verona Vernhardt was the only one without power. Her father disowned her, her siblings tormented her, and she lived all her life believing she was worthless.

When her sister died, Verona was sent to marry Duke Elric Aldenar, the beast-blooded noble everyone feared. Their marriage was nothing but silence and duty for her. She thought he despised her until rebellion tore their world apart and she realized too late that Elric had loved her all along.

When she was framed for treason and executed by her own family, she thought her story had ended.

But death was not the end because when she opened her eyes again, she found herself a year before it all began and this time, reborn with the powers of all elements.

This time, Verona will save those who deserve it, destroy those who betrayed her, and destroy the chains of blood and prejudice.

Because the forgotten heiress has returned and she’s striking back.

The fall of House Vernhardt was not a quiet affair,, it was a tectonic shift that cracked the very foundations of the Empire's social order. Within forty-eight hours of the royal trial, news of the scandal had raced across the Empire borders like wildfire fed by a gale. In every roadside tavern, every crowded marketplace, and every gilded ballroom from the Southern ports to the iron-mines of the North, the story was identical. A Great House, one of the ancient pillars of the South, had been caught playing with the forbidden black magic.
