Stormbound Hearts of the Fallen Realm

Three hundred years ago, a storm-caller shattered the laws of magic to save the man she loved, binding him to an oath that would outlast kingdoms, gods, and time itself. Now, that oath is waking again. Veylindra was trained to be perfect, controlled, and obedient — until her grief summoned a storm that erased a city and condemned her to exile. Branded a weapon too dangerous to live among her own people, she is cast into the Fallen Realm, a land of eternal tempests and buried gods where magic is older, darker, and unforgiving. Waiting for her is Kaevreth, the last guardian of a dead kingdom, bound by ancient oath-marks to protect a bloodline he believed long extinguished. He has watched centuries pass in silence, burying every storm-caller who came before her. He was never meant to hope again — until Veylindra's magic answers his own. As the truth of her heritage unfolds, Veylindra learns that her power is the final key to awakening the realm's heart — and the only force capable of stopping a god of drowned storms rising from the deep. But completing the bond between storm and shadow comes at a devastating cost. Desire blurs into destiny. Trust threatens betrayal. And loving the guardian sworn to her blood may be the one choice neither of them survives unchanged. In a world where magic does not forgive hesitation, Veylindra must decide whether to embrace the storm within her — or let the Fallen Realm fall forever. 25f10749-9354-4540-944e-1de83b5…
