The Hollow Bond: A Dark Fantasy Romance
THE HOLLOW BOND: A Gothic Supernatural Romance of Cursed Love and Bittersweet Loss
The candles shouldn't have been flickering.
Elara watches the flames shiver in their brass holders—no draft, no open window—yet the light bends as if something unseen is breathing in the dark.
Then it hits her. A flutter beneath her sternum. Heat blooming under her skin.
He was coming.
Not a thought. A certainty. The silver-blue thread that ties their souls hums at the edge of her awareness… and Adrian's emotions surge through it—relief, hunger, need—
and something else.
Something vast. Ancient. Wrong.
When Elara Ashwood and Adrian Corven forge a supernatural bond connecting their souls, they believe they've found forever—an intoxicating connection that lets them feel each other across any distance. But their bond isn't just devotion.
It's a beacon.
An ancient entity—The Hollow One—answers the call, slipping into the spaces between their heartbeats… and it begins consuming Adrian from within. As he deteriorates—missing time, waking with blood under his nails, painting nightmares he doesn't remember—Elara realizes the terrifying truth:
The harder they cling to each other, the stronger the thing feeding on them becomes.
To save Adrian's life, Elara must do the unthinkable.
She must sever the bond.
And when she does, she won't just lose him—she'll be erased from his memory completely.
THE HOLLOW BOND is a gothic supernatural romance about impossible choices, devastating sacrifice, and learning to live with the kind of love that still lingers after it's gone—raw, haunting, and bittersweet.
