Zaydah’s fate is bound to Prince Aris’s.
Much is undecided between them. When Zaydah disappears in the night without a trace, Prince Aris can feel her fear before things go dark between them. He knows she was taken, but not by whom.
When Zaydah awakens, alone in the dark and underground, she has no idea either.
But her captor soon reveals himself and an intricate web of plans that he lays before her. She’ll have to decide what she’s ready to give of herself and her future. Even more is expected of her than she’s dreamed.
Being the Shield won’t be enough to keep the darkness at bay. It’s coming for her. And it’s coming for her prince.
