The Ghost of Your Old Kiss

Elias, the most revered mage of the White Tower, is sent to defeat the Dark Lord who has conquered the northern cities. But when the mask falls, he finds Lucien—the lover he mourned for three years, the man the Tower told him was dead. Lucien was never a victim. He survived the Tower's brutal experiments and chose the Black Crown willingly—for power, for revenge, for survival. Now they stand on opposite sides of a war neither started. Through secret meetings and battlefield confrontations, they protect and wound each other. When the White Tower's final flame and the Black Crown's forbidden spell both spiral out of control, they face a choice: kill each other, or disappear together. History writes their ending as death. But history was written by those who arrived too late.
