THE CALM IN CRIMSON

Kael was ten when he made his first kill — a bloody act of revenge that awakened something inside him. Over the years, that darkness grew teeth. He became a killer of killers, striking from the shadows with surgical precision and a twisted sense of justice. His only companion? Eris — the voice in his mind, cruel and cunning.



But everything changes the night he hears a dying man whisper, “You’re not the only one.”



And then, she appears.



Elira. A mysterious woman who exists only in his dreams — or so he thinks. Her eyes pierce through his soul. Her words burn through his sanity. As she begins to cross the line between dream and waking life, Kael starts to question whether the greatest threat he faces… is not what he’s becoming, but what he’s always been.



Who is Elira?

Why is she drawn to him?

And can even a monster learn how to bleed for something other than vengeance?
