I survived by staying hidden. But secrets never stay buried. I’m Levy Michaels—an antique dealer by trade, fugitive by bloodline. When supernaturals were revealed to the world, they got PR teams, businesses, and their own guilds. If I wanted to live, I got the chance to stay hidden. Legacy-born, I’m heir to a kind of magic the world outlawed long ago. I’ve spent my life pretending to be human—and doing a damn good job of it. Until the day I don’t.

The demon realm doesn't care why you bargain. Only that you pay. I have two rules for survival: never trust a demon, and never make a deal with one. Trapped in the demon realm, I'm about to break both. If I want to escape, I'll have to bargain with creatures who thrive on contracts written in blood—and the cost of breaking them is death. Waiting for me on the other side isn't freedom. It's fallout.

My magic has always caused problems. They call it death’s kiss. The witches avoid me. The fae despise me. Mages plot behind my back. Demons think we’re kindred. And the local pack? They can’t decide whether I’m a threat to contain or a problem to eliminate. I put my reputation to use—hunting rogue supernaturals, retrieving cursed relics, and taking the dangerous jobs no one else will touch. My magic’s unpredictable, my clients are shady, and the werewolf Alpha I keep offending can’t decide whether to kill me or protect me.

Fresh off a breakup and an eviction, I started my day like any other: a book in one hand, a coffee in the other, and faking that can-do attitude inspirational memes are made of. I was ready to take on the world—and I did. Unfortunately, it was the Underworld. One freak accident later, I’m standing face to face with the sexy-as-sin and dangerously powerful Prince of the Underworld. He has a few burning questions for me—like how a mere human unlocked the door to the Underworld’s prison and released its prisoners.

My magic can kill. Now, it might be the reason I die. For years, I thought I was Raven Cursed - only to discover I’m something much worse. But nothing about my life is as shocking as what I discover about Mephisto, the mysterious and alluring client who’s always had a special interest in me. Now I know why. My curse and Mephisto’s secrets have to take a back seat when the most powerful vampire in the city hires me for a job. It seems simple enough: Negotiate the acquisition of a weapon that can kill his kind faster than a stake to the heart.

I needed a win and ended up with a hell of a loss. After my life imploded, I thought finding a strangely beautiful ring behind a bookstore dumpster meant my luck was finally changing. Instead, it put me face to face with Dominic—the Prince of the Underworld and warden of a supernatural prison. He’s responsible for dragging the worst of the worst from our world and locking them away. No mercy. No leniency. Now he’s accusing me of releasing three of its most dangerous inmates.

The only thing standing between me and death is my secret. I’m a legacy - a secret I’d planned on taking to my grave. Gareth, the enigmatic leader of the Supernatural Guild, knows it, but can I trust him to keep it? When mysterious deaths occur as a result of magic that mimics my own, I no longer have to worry about Gareth exposing me - it will be one of my own that does. Another legacy is causing the chaos, and I’m forced to hunt my own kind. It seems simple, but we’ve existed for as long as we have because we’re better hunters than prey.

The mark should have killed me. Instead, it made me a target. My magic has always caused problems. They call it death’s kiss. The witches avoid me. The fae despise me. Mages plot behind my back. Demons think we’re kindred. And the local pack? They can’t decide whether I’m a threat to contain or a problem to eliminate.

Until the day I don’t.

Powerful magic was supposed to protect me. Instead, it became a liability. For most of my life, all I wanted was magic. Now I have it. Powerful magic. And I know with absolute certainty that the price was far too high.

I have two rules for survival: never trust a demon, and never make a deal with one. Trapped in the demon realm, I’m about to break both. If I want to escape, I’ll have to bargain with creatures who thrive on contracts written in blood—and the cost of breaking them is death. Waiting for me on the other side isn’t freedom. It's fallout. A god—who happens to be my mother—wants me dead. An unforgiving fae wants me gone at any cost and doesn’t care that we’re related. And I owe a debt to the city’s most dangerous vampire.

A spell revealed I was marked by the raven. Now what? Well, I already know day drinking isn’t the answer. And Mephisto, with his increasing interest in me and my magic, isn’t either. But what is? The secrets behind the mark keep unfolding, revealing that I’m more dangerous than anyone ever suspected and that I’m the only person preventing the demise of several powerful and dangerous magical beings. Some people want me as an ally and others simply want me dead - and I have no idea who’s on my side.

My power has rewritten the rules. But it wasn’t magic alone that broke everything. It was the spell I cast to save my friend. By reversing vampirism, I’ve become something the magical elite fear too much to allow to exist. It’s not just my power they want gone. They’re right to be afraid. If I can undo vampirism, there’s no limit to what my magic is capable of—or what it could destroy if it falls into the wrong hands.

Secrets have consequences - and so do truths. I’ve been outed as a Legacy and there’s nothing I can do but deal with the aftermath. I thought I could handle it - I was wrong. The city is in chaos, and I have more enemies than allies. Some that I once called allies have quickly become my betrayers. Just when I didn’t think things could get any worse, Conner resurfaces and he’s ready to make everyone pay. Especially me. He’s the least of my worries: A supernatural assassin has been brought in to kill all the Legacy - and he’s good at his job.

My magic has attracted the wrong kind of attention from a powerful fae, and I’ve crossed the vampires one too many times. The fragile fortune that’s kept me alive has run out. Danger is closing in fast—and this time, I may not outrun it. As if that weren’t bad enough, a demon has placed a bounty on my head. And there’s no shortage of hunters willing to collect.

For a brief moment, I had magic. Powerful magic. Then the Dark Prince's enemy stole it from me—becoming something far more dangerous than either of us anticipated. Armed with my stolen power, their goal is simple: destroy everything tied to Dominic's world. That includes me. The supernatural world is unraveling. Dominic's life is in danger, my loved ones are caught in the crossfire, and the Underworld stands on the brink of collapse. Survival is no longer about escape or alliances.

The Underworld was never meant to be a place I survived—let alone one I couldn't escape. Trapped beneath the world of the living, my only goals are escape and survival. But once Dominic realizes I'm more than a human with a streak of bad luck, leaving becomes far more complicated—and far more dangerous. In a realm ruled by monsters, I'm either used as bait to force Dominic's hand or targeted in assassination attempts meant to weaken his rule. In Underworld politics, alliances are weapons, and every weakness is exploited.
