How did this happen?

Everything went so wrong on that final day in Bicaidian hell. Though I sacrificed my freedom to save Bekka and our allies, I couldn’t unshackle them from our enemies. Now we’re trapped—Bekka and the others in Bicaidian prison, and me as Madwyn’s lapdog.

It’s been months, and Madwyn has conquered five of the Twelve Realms, thanks to me. Every time I kill for her, the darkness inside me grows. And Bekka’s magic—a secret I’d die to keep—is a raging beast beneath my skin begging to break free.

But, things are changing and the tide may finally turn in our favor.

Ellarah is conscious and has started remembering what happened to her on inauguration night. Caden and Deklan’s dormant magic has awakened, and Emorie is placed into a cell with Bekka. They find new alliances—and they begin to plot their escape.

But when Madwyn threatens my family in Moldize, Bekka and Remi must convince Valeria to negotiate peace with her. But peace is the furthest thing from Madwyn’s mind, which means Bekka and Remi must break free from their prison before there are no realms left to save. 

With Madwyn’s leash around my neck, I can’t help them, and without their magic or godly strength, they’re as likely to die fighting their way out as they are to succeed.

The trouble is, I know my soulfused mate, and she’d rather die with free air in her lungs than spend the rest of her life in one of Madwyn’s cages.
