The Oak and the Apple: The Unleashing Book 2
She opened a door to the gods. Now a missing wolf could end the world, and her heart is caught in the crossfire.
Eris Sylvie's life was supposed to be normal again. College, track meets, and a charming ex-boyfriend, Jessie, who wants to rekindle their spark under the Christmas lights. But normal shattered the moment she used her second sight to open a gate between worlds.
The gods she unleashed haven't forgotten her.
Dáinn Herne Cernunnos, the brooding, ancient Huntsman who vanished from her life without a word, is back. He needs her unique sight for a cosmic emergency: Fenrir, the apocalyptic wolf of prophecy, has broken his chains and gone missing from Asgard. If he isn't found, Ragnarök begins. Their fraught reunion is a storm of unresolved tension—his duty against the betrayal she still feels.
But Eris is already trapped in her own hell. Camilla, the cunning Fae queen exiled to the mortal world, is calling in the favor Eris owes her. The task? Retrieve a mythical scepter of ice from the heart of a living volcano. With a mysterious, wolf-kin bodyguard as her only guide, Eris must survive a desert that once was an ocean and bargain with forces that view her as a pawn.
Now, with her mortal life pulling her one way and immortal obligations dragging her another, Eris must:
Navigate a Dangerous Love Triangle: Choose between the sunny, predictable future with Jessie and the dark, electrifying connection with Dáinn, a being for whom she is a temporary flicker in an eternal life.
Fulfill a Deadly Debt: Outwit Camilla's schemes before the Fae queen's ruthless auction of magical artifacts drags the old world's chaos permanently into the new.
Prevent the End of Days: Use her seer's sight to track the missing Fenrir alongside a pantheon of hilariously dysfunctional gods, all while deciding who she can really trust.
From the festive streets of her hometown to the salt-crusted hell of the Danakil Depression, Eris is the key to a war she never wanted. The gate is open. The wolf is loose. And every choice she makes could save both worlds—or tear her own apart.
