She was dragged into this world. He was bound to her against his will. Neither of them asked for it. Lee Mitchell never wanted to leave her world, but blood magic doesn't ask permission. Pulled through a brutal ritual and bound to a stranger-Samuel Groll-she found herself in an unfamiliar world where she didn't belong. The government found her soon after, subjected her to four months of relentless testing, and ultimately decided she was nothing special. Just another anomaly. A blip. Now, nearly a year later, Lee is desperate for a normal life. But Samuel, tied to her through the same ritual that brought her here, refuses to stay on the sidelines. Their unwanted connection is unbreakable, and whether Lee likes it or not, Samuel is a part of her life. Moving on isn't so simple when you're bound by blood.
