Foe. Friend. Liar. Lover. Murderer. What are you, darling Rhea?
Everything.
To avenge the massacre of her family, Rhea forged herself into a weapon with one single purpose: killing the king of night.
And then she failed.
At the heart of the shade’s court, reduced to a puppet for the king’s entertainment, she bides her time, ready to pounce at the slightest show of weakness. But murdering Caldoryn isn’t as simple as Rhea had hoped.
Especially given the fact that he might not be her true enemy.
Doryn is playing a dangerous game with the snake in his bed, but she’s far too enticing for him to resist touching her, claiming her, sharing her.
For hundreds of years, he’s needed an heir, now more than ever, as a war with the southern realm seems inevitable. Rhea is the first woman to appeal to his primal power, and therefore the ideal mother to his future children.
Even if she’s likely to stab him through the heart again.
