In the Field Museum, Priya Das has built her life on clean gloves, clean data, and clean stories—because museums are best at looking immaculate while hiding what they’ve taken. On the eve of a high-profile gala, a routine conservation test with a newly acquired ritual instrument goes wrong in a way science can’t safely name, awakening an ancient architect who can’t remain fully real without a living anchor.

What begins as containment becomes intimacy with teeth: a romance forged through boundaries turns desire into something measurable—and dangerous.

But the museum isn’t the only thing listening. Viral attention spreads like a modern incantation, institutions tighten their grip, and a polished billionaire patron offers “help” that feels a lot like ownership. As an eclipse approaches and the city’s daylight begins to stutter, Priya must decide what she’s willing to bargain, what she refuses to surrender—and how to write terms strong enough to keep love from becoming captivity.
