Linnea Johannes has been haunted her entire life by violent dreams of a past love. But the moment she meets the devastatingly powerful, Eilif Askildsen, her nightmares bleed into reality. He is the man who stalks her dreams, the possessive enigma who uses Icelandic endearments and looks at her with a predatory hunger she recognizes.
Eilif is no mere mortal man; he is the Destroyer of the prophecy, who has spent a millennium in self-loathing. When a brutal attack forces his hand, Eilif reveals the unspeakable truth.
Their bond is written in the runes—he is chaos, and Linnea is his destiny, the stillness born to anchor his storm.
The revelation should have pushed them apart, but Linnea makes the devastating choice to grant him absolution, forging a bond of merciless devotion that places her heart, and her life, in the hands of a monster.
Now, she commands the Destroyer. She demands justice without bloodshed.
Eilif must protect his Anchor, but to do so, he must unleash the limitless savagery he swore he would never show her.
She forgave the immortal who broke her soul, but will her mercy be the final sin that destroys their world?
