He stole her blood's life. Now he will pay with his.

Raised to be a warrior, seventeen-year-old Leida fights in the woods for survival. Her life is simple: hunt and survive. Until one day when ash starts to fall from the sky every purpose is shattered by the dying flames of a raid.

Faced with her family's death, she decides that there is only one reason for her to live. For revenge. But when Leida has to face powers thought to be a gone, she realises that legends are real. Given a role at court Leida will keep her head down,  just that she will keep her oath-- kill the King and shatter his empire. She'll have to trust her instincts, but there are plenty of people that stand between her and the King. And one of them might as well steal her heart. 

As her lust for revenge deepens and the night gets darker, a rising shadow threatens everybody at court, including Leida. With a murderer on the loose that kills highborns in broad daylight and a monster that rules to kill, Leida will have to enter the game of betrayal and lies, risking not only to lose her soul, but also her heart.

But Leila can't stop dreaming of a black wolf with gold markings. A creature she hasn't seen yet feels an undeniable attraction to. Something she thought she'd never experience due to her status and being mistreated by those she called family. When she runs away from home and fate pulls the two together can they resolve their differences in time for Ash to save her from becoming enmeshed in a war not yet won? Or will darkness claim her as it has the others involved?

[Watty's Shortlist & WATTPAD PICKS -- Up and Coming List 06.07.2018] Now Available on Amazon!!! His hands moved down to cradle her neck. "I only have one request if you're going to keep me in suspense all day long." "What's that?" The movement of her lips drew his eyes down. "Let me kiss you again?" That voice, breathy and low, set Taly's heart racing. His lips twitched at the corners-he could hear it. Now that he could use his magic, he knew exactly the kind of effect he was having on her. But he didn't move. He waited. Her choice. She set the pace. Taking a shaky breath, she jerked her head. Yes. *** Magic marked her for suffering. Magic will save her. Magic will lead her home. On Tempris, time magic is outlawed, and suspected time mages are hunted. Humans are second-class citizens, shunned by the immortal fey that live on the island. They even have a name for their kind: Shardless. Taly is one of the lucky humans. Taken in by a fey noble and his family, she's lived a good life, surrounded by people she loves. But when an accidental brush with magic causes her to see things -- ghostly apparitions that give her small glimpses into the future -- it has deadly consequences. The Sanctorum has returned to the island, and if they find her, they'll kill her. And anyone that tries to protect her. This includes her best friend, Skye. He was the boy that saved her. The man she knew she could never have. And when he refuses to let her go, their actions might hold the power to reshape the world. An ancient evil is rising, and in order to protect those that she cares for, Taly will have to sacrifice everything. Including her heart.
