☆ COMPLETE NOVEL by Lynda Williams & Alison Sinclair ☆ Eighteen years ago, Ev'rel gave up the throne of Sevildom to Ameron in exchange for a Pureblood son known as the Throne Price, gifted to her by Ameron. However, problems arise that re-open the question of whether Ameron or Ev'rel should lead the empire - problems that will lead to the challenge floor, and the death of one of Sevildom's last Purebloods. Caught in the middle, Amel keeps his dangerous secrets quiet in a troubled heart. His relationships with those in power are strangely deep, but perilous. Meanwhile, raised on foreign ideals of truth and equality, young Erien enters the court of the Sevolite empire. Despite his formidable intellect and a stint of fleet service under Horth Nersal, he is as innocent, in his own way, as the sixteen-year-old Princess Luthan he meets there. As the younger generation, they and Erien's foster brother Ditatt struggle to act on their ideals in the face of duty, danger and the complexities of politics.
