Between Two Kings (Standard Edition) (Split or Swallow, 2)

Tem’s life on a quiet chicken farm is a distant memory, replaced by a cutthroat world of shifting loyalties and dangerous magic. As a basilisk caught in the crosshairs of an escalating war, she is no longer just a bystander; she is the nexus between two warring realms. Having married the human King Caspen to secure a fragile peace, she finds herself tethered by ancient, binding laws to the Serpent King, Leo. This is a high-stakes urban fantasy where the price of desire is often blood.
