Teaser Exerpt
"The ground shook beneath my feet, sending a cold shiver down my spine. It wasn’t an earthquake—at least not the kind Chicago was known for. This was something deeper, darker. My sisters froze in their tracks, their wide eyes reflecting the same fear I felt.
A blinding light erupted around us, and pain tore through my body as if every bone was breaking and mending at the same time. I screamed, but the sound was swallowed by the chaos around me. When the light dimmed, we collapsed to the floor, our breaths ragged.
‘What the hell just happened?’ Ashley’s voice trembled, a rare crack in her bravado.
I didn’t know. But deep inside, I felt it. Something had awakened in us, something powerful and terrifying. And I had no idea if it would save us—or destroy us."
