From the manor halls that caged her to the dungeon that nearly claimed his soul, this is Alora and Garrik like you haven't seen them before. Step back into The Promises of the Marked series with a collection of bonus chapters that explore never-before-seen perspectives, intimate confessions, and what lingers after blood is spilled and masks are dropped.

Fans of What Lies Within Masks & Shadows and What Lies Within Blood & Heirs , these are the untold secrets you've been waiting for. Return to the realm where love defied suffering and fate yielded to hope. Step beyond the final page, and enjoy the scenes too swoony, too spoilery, or too scandalous to make it in . . . until now. These bonus chapters reach into the spaces between agony and affection-where Alora still flinches from remembered roses, and Garrik still dreams in screams. Explore the fantasy realm of Elysian once more with this collection of bonus content: battles against trauma, alternate POVs, deleted kisses, laughter, steamy aftermaths, and the answers to questions you didn't dare ask.
