When pain and pleasure become worship.
Selena was one of the most powerful court wizards in the kingdom. Now her magic is broken, her mind scarred by secrets she helped bury, and her days are spent investigating murders for the City Watch. When a series of brutal killings among Villedor's elite leads her to an unknown god and a ritual of sacred surrender, Selena is drawn into a world where guilt is prayer and truth is power. At the center stands Lord Silas Delamort. He is the Confessor. Beautiful. Unsettling. Devout. He coaxes truth through touch, through pressure, through the exquisite edge between pleasure and pain. When she's alone with him, her heart beats faster, her body feels again, and her broken magic responds. But Silas is not just a man who hears confessions. He is one who takes them. And some truths, once undone, cannot be reclaimed. This is a standalone novel in The Archetypes world with a happily ever after. Contains mature content.
