While traveling to Fren, Allyssa and Odar and hijacked by a ruthless assassin who divulges a stunning secret that changes everything.
Trying to come to terms with this newfound revelation, Allyssa is taken to Russek and delivered into the hands of a malicious and twisted royal family. She finds herself an unwilling pawn in a risky political game that will either end with her death or the annihilation of her beloved kingdom. Unsure of where the lies end and the truth begins, she must survive the brutal family and escape the fortified castle, all the while coming to grips with her feelings for Odar.
In a kingdom filled with darkness, Allyssa enters a game where one wrong move means death, secrets hide around each corner, and it will take every ounce of cunning she has to survive.
Unfortunately, her nightly escapades will have to wait because the citizens of Emperion may need saving from something much bigger than common criminals. War is encroaching on their kingdom and in order to protect her people, Allyssa may have to sacrifice her heart. Forced to entertain an alliance through marriage with a handsome prince from a neighboring kingdom, she finds herself feeling even more stifled than before. To make matters worse, the prince has stuck his nosy squire, Jarvik, to watch her every move.
Jarvik is infuriating, bossy and unfortunately, the only person she can turn to when she unveils a heinous plot. Together, the unlikely pair will have to work together to stop an enemy that everyone thought was long gone, one with the power to destroy her family and the people of Emperion. Now the cage Allyssa so longed to break free from might just be the one thing she has to fight to keep intact. In order to save her kingdom, she will have to sacrifice her freedom, her heart, and maybe even her life.

“Why do
you care?” she countered, taking a step back and putting more space between
them. He wanted something from her—and she had an inkling it had nothing to do
with the upcoming war. “What use am I to you?” Whatever game he played or line
he toed, she had a sick feeling it was far more deadly than being locked in the
dungeon. She needed to tread with caution.
“What
use is the heir to the Emperion
throne?” He tilted his head to the side, his eyes dissecting every inch of her
face. She refused to flinch or show fear before this man, although he made her
cower inside.
He
lowered his voice to a whisper. “I think you should be asking yourself this—what
can the heir of the Russek throne do
for you?”
A chill
slid over her skin. They were on dangerous grounds. Staring into his eyes, she
didn’t see a cruel soldier standing before her, but a man hinting at an
alliance if she was brave enough, strong enough, and cunning enough to forge
it. However, she had to proceed with the utmost caution. For all she knew,
Kerdan could be as cruel as Soma. “I am suddenly lightheaded from all the
activity.” She wanted an opportunity to think without him watching her every
move. “I’d like to rest.”
He leaned down close to her ear. “You
play your part exceedingly well. You are just what I need.” He stepped away
from her, and his face shifted, becoming stern. “Allow me to escort you back to
my room,” he said, his voice loud, clear. He scooped up her tunic and boots and
exited the tower, leaving a very stunned Allyssa there with her thoughts in a
jumble. Apparently, he also played his part exceedingly well.
