By morning, Noah, Mara, and the puppy are on the run, leaving behind the only family they’ve ever known.

Ava escapes to her family’s cabin in the depths of the Chesapeake Forest, desperate for a quiet holiday break.

Prince Jael of the Severin never meant to unlock the Crimson Gateway beneath his parents’ castle. The portals had been sealed for millennia. Only the female Fae of Caldaen were meant to wield dream-sorcery. Jael forced himself into lucidity, crossed the gateway, and emerged in a mirrored Oxford. The Severin once roamed the ten Clone-Earths for ages, until a Pagan witch and a Catholic monk worked together to seal the Crimson Gateways centuries ago. Now Jael has reopened the path for his people to feed on souls once more—and reclaim their lost immortality.

Here, madness is not the absence of intelligence —it is its overflow. A voice emerges that questions everything: systems, identities, ambitions, borders, and even the self that tries to hold them together.
