A human, the spirit bond to the Fae King. Mysterious murders disrupting city life. A choice between love and loyalty. Emilia finally thought her life would settle down after her Orc father was successfully rescued from the Northern Clans. Her biggest stress should be finalizing her bonding ceremony with Timas, the Fae King - but it isn't. Tensions are mounting as murders continue in the Day Court capital, Sonas. The people are terrified and losing trust in the king. The council- normally there to advise - wants to use its power to supersede his wishes. Then, an unexpected visitor shows up, claiming to be able to solve all their problems, but the price is steep, and it might just cost Emilia everything she holds dear.
