Bound Magic and the Gods' Secrets

The murder of our beloved king is the moment the restraints on my magic begin to loosen.

Power buried inside me is waking, wild enough to destroy me and dangerous enough to start a war, and the people I once trusted are hunting me out of the only home I have ever known.

Flight leaves me with Regent, a ruthless stranger who plans to sell me at the Volmere auction alongside other exotic creatures.

The sale should be reason enough to hate him, but every attempt I make on his life costs me the chance to escape.

The longer I remain trapped at his side, the more certain I am that he is hiding secrets as deadly as my own.

While the gods whisper and the Fates pull their threads, betrayal and desire run together as kingdoms fall and monsters rise, and the man who chained me may be the only one who can survive what I am becoming.
