Now that she's no longer the vulnerable outcast at Draven Campus, the dynamics with her Bonds shift dramatically, and they're determined to keep her close in ways that test every boundary she's trying to maintain.

Sultry dark fantasy vibes with simmering tension—moody alt-R&B, gothic orchestral strings, and smoldering indie rock. Think Hozier's brooding intensity, FKA twigs' sensual ethereality, and Maggie Rogers' emotional depth. Paranormal romance energy: dangerous, intoxicating, surrender.
