In a world where magic is as much a weapon as it is a gift, Asa and her brother Caine are the last heirs to the fallen Lunar Kingdom. Forced into hiding after a brutal coup led by the power-hungry Malak, Asa now lives a life of secrecy, masquerading as the infamous Shadow, a thief feared throughout the land to make ends meet. Rumors of a relic tied to her family’s power draw her to plan her most risky heist yet. 

​

But with Malak's forces closing in, Asa must navigate betrayal, loyalty, and her own heart to protect her brother from a fate worse than death.

Asa has finally managed to secure passage to the capital of vampire territory, Tenib’r, so they can steal the crown from the vampire princess. But with time running out before the new moon and Lutia suddenly sabotaging her at every turn, Asa has no idea who to trust.

 

The masquerade ball was meant to be their golden  opportunity to liberate the crown, but Asa quickly discovers it’s nothing more than a deadly trap. 

​

If she’s going to get out of this alive, Asa must master her magic in time to save her brother, or Tenb’r may also become her tomb.

Asa's mission is simple: find the Shadow Crown, rescue her brother Caine, and survive long enough to see it all through. But when she’s kidnapped by Lutia, a mysterious thief with her own deadly secrets, Asa’s mission becomes a dangerous game of survival.

​

As they race against time, Asa's telepathic connection with Caine begins to unravel secrets that could either save them—or destroy everything they hold dear. 

​

With every step, the line between ally and enemy blurs, and Asa must decide who she can trust before it’s too late.

Asa, the moon princess, and her brother, the moon prince, have been in hiding since the day her parents were killed by a man she once thought loyal  to the crown. To survive, she is living a double life as a thief known only as "The Shadow." 
 

One night, they’re hiding place is compromised, and her brother is captured. The advisor plans to kill him during the rise of the next full moon and harness all of his power for himself the only way to defeat him? A legend. If Yasha can steal the ancient Shadow Crown, an artifact of the vampire princess which allows the wearer to project intense fear into the minds of others and control them, she might be able to defeat him. The only way to get what she wants? Do what she does best, of course. Steal it.
