Serephina had always know what her future held. Her life had been planned out and controlled up until this moment. The moment when she would be bonded to her Rumion, becoming the first blood-bonded couple in the last nine decades. She and her Rumion were the chosen ones, the ones who would stand by the gods' words. The celestial ones. Only one problem: Serephina would not surrender to the bond. She hated Nicolas, the tall, brown-haired, gray eyes boy who was tied to her for life--who would be her life source. And who despite everything, made her heart flutter every time he touched her. Serephina would not give in to the temptations and pulls of the bond, nor would she allow herself to be bossed around by Great Willa, the woman who had performed the ritual. Serephina thought her biggest problem was fighting the bond, but now this bond is making her question everything she's ever known.
