Human or beast? Mutt is more like it. Nova is caught in the middle of an age old war. Lines were drawn in the sand hundreds of years before her birth. Being a member of the last surviving human setlement on earth and her years being trapped in a lab shoved her to one side of that line. Reyn is something else entirely something shes never seen before in her years of torture. A monster by every definition of the word, all except he is the only person to ever give her a choice. To let her find her own destiny and draw her own lines.

They might have won the battle to rescue Ariana, but the war is still coming... Still heavy with the losses she endured and those she felt she caused, Zelene is unsure of what to do next even though all eyes seem to be turned to her for guidance. Paralyzed with grief and fear of losing anyone else, she would rather lock herself in her room with the literal ghosts of her past than take another step forward. Unable to sit by idly or wait for Zelene to make a move, Terrena takes matters into her own hands. Fresh on the heels of her betrothal to Reilly, the duo make plans to unite the lands as the prophecy calls for. First on her list is the Athucreans, the warrior race that breeds the Cynewards bonded to the girls. Determined to honor Kenward, Terrena ignores the warnings that the warrior race would rather see their heads on spikes than make peace. When familiar faces find their way back into their lives and those they thought they could trust turning against them, the bonds holding the young Duillaine together start to fracture. The girls struggle to win the war against their grief and keep hold of their growing power before it consumes them all.

In the darkest of night a run down old barn housed a woman in sheer pain, her body screaming as her lungs pushed out sounds so blood curdling it was sure to attract unwanted attention. With every scream she feared the unborn child she was about to give birth to, would never see the world. With the forest in ebony a lone stranger padded silently threw its under brush, he'd heard the terror of screams and was drawn to it like a moth to flame. Now that he was within ear shot, the stranger froze. His brain telling him that this was foolish beyond compare, while his heart said that he was in the right place. To which came another painful cry from a woman he knew nothing about, a decision he'd have to make- soon. Pushing the half torn door away from the barn he stared as a beauty with golden hair lay on the cold hard ground, blood sliding down ivory legs as she gripped the earth for some salvation. A whimper of a cry was all he picked up, as the woman looked to him with a final plea. "Please.....my baby"
