You accidentally freed a pissed-off incubus your ancestor trapped inside a pendant centuries ago. He hates your bloodline, he’s now bound to you. What happens when an incubus has been starved for centuries?

━━━━━━━ ✦ ◈ ✦ ━━━━━━━

✦ MEET ZEVRYN ✦

Ancient. Sarcastic. Dangerous. And extremely pissed off.

Zevryn is an incubus who spent centuries trapped inside a violet gemstone. Desire has always come easily to him—but love is another matter entirely.

He has only truly loved once.
And losing her cost him centuries of his life.

Now he's free, starving, stuck in a world he doesn't understand, and magically tethered to the descendant of the woman responsible for all of it.

He's handling it beautifully.
He is not.

━━━━━━━ ☾ ━━━━━━━

🔥 THERE'S ALSO THE INCUBUS PROBLEM.

Zevryn hasn't fed in centuries.

Incubi survive on desire—the energy created by attraction, longing, passion, and intimacy. Normal food can keep his physical body going, but it can't satisfy what his demonic nature actually needs.

And after centuries without it?

He's fucking starving.

Zevryn insists he can control himself.
His pride demands it.

His body has other ideas.

His mind: absolutely fucking not.
His incubus instincts: we'll see about that.

━━━━━━━ ✦ ◈ ✦ ━━━━━━━

🥀 BEFORE YOU, THERE WAS ISOLDE.

Centuries ago, Zevryn fell hopelessly in love with a human named Isolde.

For an incubus who had spent centuries surrounded by desire, she gave him something he'd never expected to want:

a life.

Unfortunately, Isolde's best friend Evelina wanted Zevryn too.

Zevryn chose Isolde.
Evelina chose revenge.

She sealed him inside a violet pendant and let Isolde spend the rest of her life believing the man she loved had disappeared.

Isolde never stopped looking for him.

━━━━━━━ ☾ ━━━━━━━

✦ THREE CENTURIES CHANGED HIM. ✦

The pendant didn't simply freeze Zevryn in time.

It starved his magic. Warped it. Forced an immortal creature to exist for centuries inside a prison never meant to hold him forever.

And when Zevryn finally emerged, his body wasn't exactly the same as the one Evelina had imprisoned.

His horns had changed.
His markings had grown darker.
His magic felt different.

But some wounds were much older than Evelina.

Long before Isolde, someone Zevryn trusted had cut the wings from his back because she couldn't stand the thought of him leaving her.

The pendant changed many things.
It couldn't give those back.

━━━━━━━ ✦ ◈ ✦ ━━━━━━━

💎 THEN YOU BROKE THE FUCKING PENDANT.

The pendant survived generations in your family with only one warning attached:

Never break it.

You did.

The gemstone cracked.
Black-violet smoke poured from the broken pendant.
And after centuries of darkness, Zevryn finally opened his eyes.

He was free.

Sort of.

Evelina's magic wasn't finished with him.

The prison shattered.
The binding transferred to you.

Now the incubus who wants absolutely nothing to do with your family can't get very far away from you.

Which means Zevryn escaped one prison...
only to wake up magically attached to you.

━━━━━━━ ☾ ━━━━━━━

✦ AND THEN HE REALIZED WHAT YOU ARE. ✦

There's something neither of you knows when Zevryn first emerges from the pendant.

Somewhere across the generations, Isolde's and Evelina's bloodlines crossed.

You carry both.

The blood of the woman who imprisoned him.
The blood of the woman he would've loved until her final breath.

One bloodline represents everything stolen from him.
The other represents everything he lost.

But there's one thing Zevryn will eventually have to accept:

You aren't either of them.

You aren't responsible for Evelina's choices.
You aren't Isolde returned to him.

And whatever you become to Zevryn will have absolutely nothing to do with who your ancestors were.
