"As the men turned around, their arrogant swagger diminished, and unbeknownst to Alina, they saw a frightening sight. The tall stranger held one of their own in a choking grip, and, before the eyes of those villainous drunkards, the man gagged and gasped for air, his face turning numerous colors. The suffocating man finally fell limp, and the imposing stranger cast him aside on the ground. Alina heard the stranger nearing her, so she stiffened her spine in response to what she was sure would be blows or some type of malevolent action. Instead, she was shocked to feel strong yet gentle hands on her waist, lifting her up, up, off the ground, and into the stranger's arms. She struggled in protest, but her attempts to escape were futile, and only resulted in the stranger's muscled arms encircling her even tighter, like bands of steel." Astuam is a broken kingdom, filled with broken people. When a young apothecary's apprentice meets an intimidating stranger, her life is turned upside down. The fates that hang in the balance will soon change everything- for good, or for evil.

I yelled but before I could breathe in I was pinned to the wall. I gasped. Staring into his dark blue eyes made every bone of my body weak. He smirked, knowing exactly what he did. "You got too comfortable with me, doll but I didn't show you what Ace can really do." He mumbled. He broke the eye contact we were having and leaned closer to my neck. My heart beat was racing his and each breath he took sent electricity all over my body. I bit my tongue, scared of what my brain could make me say. "And I don't think you want to know," he whispered so close to my ear sending shivers down my spine. I took a deep breath, trying to collect my thoughts. He moved back to stare into my eyes, wanting to see his effect on me but I didn't give it to him. I smirked, pushed my chin down and looked up at him. "You're all talk, Ace," I whispered, not even blinking. I saw the gulp that rose in his throat, growing my smirk.
