About the Book
Better to die than to swear a blood oath to a clanless night elf…
Sky has had enough of being used for her magic. She’s been betrayed one too many times, and now she wants nothing more than to be left alone.
But fate won’t let her hide for long. Something evil is stalking the residents of her village, and they think she’s just the person to stop it. Sky never could resist a cry for help, but the creeping darkness is growing, and leaves her no choice but to escort a handful of terrified refugees across the border—to a place that may not be much safer than their dark-magic infested town.
Rhone never expected his band of outcasts to be invaded by a horde of helpless humans. They’re on the run from a voracious creature of dark magic, and the only thing holding them together is a bewitching human mage with a chip on her shoulder and a willingness to face hell itself to keep her promises.
Rhone knows within minutes of meeting her that his world will never be the same, but she doesn’t want his help. In fact, she wants nothing to do with him, but the danger she’s facing is a threat to humans and night elves alike.
So if he has to convince her that he’s a bloodthirsty villain to get her to accept his help? He’ll do it—and far worse—if it means saving the life of the woman who inexplicably owns his heart.
A swoon-worthy tale of dark magic, devotion, and sacrifice for fans of Elise Kova, Sylvia Mercedes, and Shari L. Tapscott.
