To end the chain, they must first gather it all.
In the capital, every bond is power. Every Claim creates a chain, and every chain places another life in someone else's hands.
Sera and Cassian have already defied an order that has ruled for generations. Together, they hold something the Crown has never known: a chain with two heads. But the freedom they fought to protect remains fragile, and a dangerous discovery offers a possibility neither dared imagine.
An ancient rite called the Unbinding could end the chains forever.
To perform it, they must gather those willing to be freed beneath their shared power. Yet every new bond makes them resemble the very rulers they hope to overthrow. Lady Ashmere wants the same power for herself, the Crown fears losing its authority, and the Reliquary guards secrets that were buried for a reason.
As alliances fracture and the race for control intensifies, Sera and Cassian confront a terrible truth: freedom demands more than rebellion. It demands sacrifice, surrender, and a willingness to lose the very connection that brought them together.
In a world where love and possession have become indistinguishable, can two people choose each other when nothing remains to bind them?
Unbound is the third and final book in The Wakebound Trilogy, a dark romantic fantasy of power, desire, political intrigue, and the price of freedom.
