They summon a devil. He answers—and claims the circle, the forest, and the girls who dared his name.
If Kael Thorne—the Hollow Flame—rises whole, the gods who buried him will burn. If he fails, the witches who fed him will.

Marked by a forbidden rite, Delilah and her coven unleash a horned king forged of smoke and hunger. Kael isn't a spell to wield—he's a sentence—and his first decree is desire. Bound by blood and flame, they are dragged into his war to reclaim four lost queens: Lazriel, cruel as wildfire; Mirael, the mind that cages mirrors; Vexxa, chaos made flesh; and death-quiet Thaneis, sleeping beneath the world. Temples crack. Towers breathe. Every kiss is a bargain; every touch, power.

Ritual becomes pilgrimage as Kael leads them across ash citadels and mind-prisons, feeding on need, remaking them with his mark. Enemies wake. Old gods remember. The circle that started in a forest widens into a throne room—and a choice: burn the world or bind it.

Sin-dark, sensual, and relentless, Ritual of the Hollow Flame is a devil harem romance where consent is weapon and worship, witches become queens, and the only safe word is fire.
