Two years after fleeing London, Alina Lis has built something she never imagined possible: a home. Leading a commune of women in 1890s Buffalo, she has found a new purpose experimenting with the Vipera—but peace is more fragile than she realizes.
Because Silas Forbes, the Vipera she escaped, has not forgotten her.
When Silas returns, his hunger for Alina threatens everything she has built. But he isn't the only danger waiting in the shadows. Luka Novikov, a man who once betrayed Alina, is now bound to Silas by wounds that refuse to heal and debts that cannot be ignored.
As the human and Vipera worlds collide, old poisons resurface and new alliances take shape. Alina must protect the family she's built while Silas struggles with an obsession that refuses to die and Luka confronts the consequences of his past.
In a world where some wounds never heal and some hungers can never be satisfied, survival may come down to which of them is willing to surrender first.
The Arachnid is a dark gothic romance filled with vampiric intrigue, obsession, revenge, dangerous bonds, morally gray characters, supernatural tension, and a seductive clash between a woman determined to protect her freedom and the immortal who can't let her go.
