"What are you?" That is the thought that runs through the King's mind as he finds himself entangled between the Terrifying Creatures that are plaguing his land, and the Terrifyingly enticing Zarina.
"Do you have a death wish?" Thaddeus repeats this question as his sister continues to search for new ways to anger the King of Dalustra, disappoint their father, the Emperor, and chase after the Rising creatures that are roaming the land.

She was light-too blinding, too pure for a man like him.
He was darkness-cursed, dangerous, and utterly obsessed.
He was a man of power, feared and worshipped in the same breath, ruling over the world of shadows where morality was a myth and sin was the only language spoken.
Love? That was for the weak. He didn't do love. He didn't believe in innocence.

Instead, she stayed, unaware that the moment she stepped into his world, she became his.
His to ruin.
His to cherish.
His purest sin.
And now, even if heaven came calling-he'd rather burn than let her go.
