36 partes Concluida Contenido adultoMoryana is forced to hide the secret of her true ancestry and live as an orphan destined for conscription, until a two-hundred-and-fifty-year old bargain shatters everything she thought she knew.
Desiring a peaceful life, free from the shackles of responsibility and imminent conscription, Moryana steals what she can from the rich and powerful, hoping to buy herself out of this fate. When an annual visit from her father results in the revelation that she was sired to fulfil a bargain between mortals and Fae, Moryana must choose to fight, or die.
Without the bargain, mortals stand to lose all that they have accomplished and without a mortal child, the Fae will destroy everything that humans hold dear.
As an Offering of the bargain, Moryana competes in trials inside an arena of death for the amusement of the Fae, who are ruled by brothers as fickle and cruel as they are stunning and powerful. Moryana fights to survive, and the spilling of her blood reveals a truth that changes everything.
Trying to understand who she is, and what purpose she serves, Moryana works alongside Casimir, one of the ruling brothers, and their growing feelings for each other.
If Moryana wants to ensure the mortals stand a chance of surviving the cruelty of Casimir's brother, who plans to control the conscripted soldiers that he holds hostage and force them to attack their kin, she must act quickly.
Will her heart be strong enough to withstand the cost of what must be done?
