I got drunk and did something stupid.
The consequences of a single night of revelry turned out to be deadly. An attack aimed at me cost many their lives-I can still hear the screams after that first explosion went off.
Now I'm on the run.
Enemies close in from all corners ... my unknown foe hiding behind pawns. I am strong, my mother taught me to take care of myself. But whoever is coming after me is going for my heart-My friends, my found family.
Nor is a new man, and we have found our way back to the deep friendship of our childhood. Oh, how I've missed him. He is stronger and more confident with Valsan's love and support, and I won't let anything compromise all he has found and how much he has grown. And sweet Halee, who was always brave, is reaching new heights with her magic and is blossoming in her relationship with Miles.
Then there's the heir to Alopson. Keir has offered me the protection of his House, and I take it almost as quickly as I fall into his bed. He is a lovely diversion, but even his kind heart and sculpted body can only distract me for so long.
My friends are willing to protect me at all costs, but that is a price I am not willing to pay. The bloodshed must stop, and I am the key-I need to find the answers ... Who wants me dead? Why? Is my mother's past tied to the trouble I'm in now? How did my Void come to be? Am I the only one? Who can I trust?
But I'm terrified to face the biggest question. Will unlocking the secrets of my past actually end the violence, or will it doom us all?
