Some loves are written in ash. Some curses are older than gods. Lyra has always dreamed of fire. In the flicker of candlelight, in the shadow of strangers, she sees pieces of lives she has never lived-deaths she cannot explain, desires that feel older than her own body. When a stranger appears at a funeral, watching her with eyes that burn like centuries, the dreams sharpen into memory. Eryx is the man who does not die. Scarred by the hand of a god, he has walked through endless lifetimes searching for her-the woman he is doomed to love, doomed to lose. Each time they find each other, passion ignites, and each time it ends in blood. His immortality is both gift and curse, binding them in an endless cycle of reunion and ruin. But now, the god who cursed him has awakened. Whispers crawl through Lyra's dreams, offering freedom at an impossible price: betrayal, blood, and a blade that can sever eternity itself. To break the chain, Lyra must decide whether love is salvation... or the final trap. Dark, gothic, and aching with desire, The Immortal: Until the End of Every Life is a story of obsession, sacrifice, and a love fierce enough to defy gods-even if it burns the world to ash.
