In the beginning there is always darkness…
Aramon's
blood runs hot for the ravishingly beautiful Eliyn, the mysterious
young woman who seemed to appear like magic out of the woods, lost and
alone. But as Garde Lumia of the kingdom of Kinra, he is bound by duty
to his country and the divine family he has sworn to protect. Aramon
must marry according to his high station, the laws of the kingdom have
no care for the desires of his heart.
Eliyn lost the only
family she has ever known to the barbaric Viscans, and is grateful to
the royal family for taking in. She knows Aramon would willingly defy
his king to bond with her if she would only say the word, but she is
mindful of her low-born status. All she can ever have of him are nights
of forbidden passion.
Then a dark ship appears on the
horizon, a ship bearing Araqael, the Night Lord cast from the heavens
by the goddess herself. The centerpiece of his plot for revenge is his
intended bride – Eliyn. The world would be hers to command if only she
would take her place at his side. She must choose between the demon who
could offer her everything and the man who could offer her nothing but
his heart.
But Divinity has other plans...
