Lessia, eine Halbelfe mit gefährlicher Magie, lebt unerkannt unter Menschen – doch ein Blutschwur bindet sie an den grausamen Elfenkönig. Als dieser sie zwingt, an tödlichen Wettkämpfen der Menschen teilzunehmen, um dort Lochlan, den charismatischen Regenten des Menschenreichs auszuspionieren, ist das ihre einzige Chance auf Freiheit. Bewacht durch den schönen, undurchsichtigen Elf Merrick, der ihr niemals in die Augen sieht, kämpft Lessia täglich ums Überleben – und gegen die wachsende Anziehung zu Lochlan. Doch bald weiß sie nicht mehr, wem sie trauen kann.

Half-Fae Elessia could have had everything. Literally. Since her magic allows her to compel anyone to do her bidding by merely looking into their eyes, the world was at her feet. But after a tragic accident, she is thrown into the Fae king's dungeons and forced to swear a blood oath to him, binding her to his service. Five years later, she's living amongst humans in Ellow and has created a life for herself—as much as she can with the king's promise to call in his debt looming over her.

Torture. Darkness. Loss. That's what the Fae king has planned to break her. But Elessia is prepared to fight. She is ready to fight her way out of the king's claws, fight to save Havlands from rebels and Fae alike, and above all, fight to return to the one she loves. In the end, it's her own life she might need to fight for the most. Even though her mate will do anything, including ripping the entire world to shreds, to keep her safe, there is nowhere to hide when the gods themselves are after you.

After saving her rebel friends on the final day of the election, Elessia is on the run. But the danger is far from over. As she fights her guilt for betraying Loche, the man she foolishly believed could mend her broken soul, and wrestles with the unexpected emotions stirring within her for Merrick, her fiercely loyal guard, Elessia learns of the rebels' true plans—plans that threaten every loved one she's left behind.

The king is dead, but Havlands is still in turmoil, plagued by distrust amongst the conquered rebels, shifters, Fae, and humans. With the impending threat of the invading Oakgards' Fae, Elessia and her friends find themselves in a race to unite their fractured realm. But as Elessia grapples with the deadly implications of her newfound powers, she and Merrick discover a devastating truth: the price of her new gifts may force them to leave Havlands and their friends behind to face the looming war alone.
