Tudo na vida há um preço. E o preço que Rue teve de pagar - ainda que fosse uma garotinha à beira da morte - fora a perda da sua liberdade. Resgatada no litoral de Pangera, única sobrevivente de um navio naufragado, Rue foi encontrada por bruxas cruéis que a usaram de cobaia durante anos à fio. Com o passar do tempo, cada vez mais mostrando indícios de que era poderosa demais com os poderes dados à ela em decorrência aos anos de tortura nas mãos das bruxas, ela é vendida para Rigelus, a Radiante Mão dos asteri, sendo usada como sua assassina particular. Embora Rue há tempos tivesse desistido de se salvar, de salvar sua alma quebrada e perdida, ela descobre que a vida é muito mais do que apenas continuar sobrevivendo. Quando Rigelus a envia para observar Bryce Quinlan nos dias seguintes ao alvoroço que ocorreu em Lunathion, ela encontra uma forma de, talvez, sair das garras dos asteri, junto de seus novos amigos e uma recente paixão avassaladora. Rue poderia tomar as rédeas de sua própria vida de volta se quisesse, se ousasse. E ao lado de sua nova família, ela estremeceria a cidade. E derrubaria mais um asteri se fosse necessário.
Porque, pelo tempo que Rue conviveu em Lunathion, ela aprendeu uma lição maior do que todas as outras: que através do amor, tudo é possível.

"She's hot."
"Yeah, I know. I'm kinda jealous..."
"I'm gonna ask her out."

Mia White was just an ordinary girl that walked the face of earth. She was who people looked up to. She had good grades, was the kindest person you'd ever meet, and was breathtakingly beautiful. Everyone in ClearHills Academy loved her. But, there were also some who feared and despised her.
Some people hated Mia because she was known as 'little miss perfect' and because she was claimed by the one who practically owned everything. Besides her best friend, Sarah, not many people approached her.
Most people feared that if they were to do something wrong, it would anger him. And that was the last thing people wanted.
Ace King was someone not to mess with. His father owns a powerful company that he would soon take over. He was what parents told their kids not become. He was the bad boy of ClearHills Academy.
Ever since Ace first laid eyes on her as kids, she was what he wanted most. Mia was the only person who he'd drop on his knees and bow down to, she was the only person he cared not to be feared by.
She was the only who could tame him.

"What is it dear? Do you want something else?" his mother asked, looking down to see his attention focused on something.
Or rather, someone.
"Her," he said, pointing at a girl, sitting on a small wooden stool with a book in her hands. "I want her."

❝Everyone knows she belongs to him.❞
