10 parte Ongoing MatureLyra Fowler, a healer gifted with the ability to mend wounds and cure ailments through touch, has always lived on the outskirts of her village-both physically and socially. Branded as an outcast and accused of witchcraft, her life is marked by isolation and ridicule. But when the village Chief's daughter, Helena, succumbs to a mysterious illness no doctor can cure, Lyra becomes their last hope.
Helena's condition, however, is beyond saving. Despite Lyra's desperate attempts, the young woman dies in her arms. Blamed for the failure and accused of fraud, Lyra is brutally beaten and left to die by the very people who sought her help.
Yet, instead of death, Lyra wakes in a luxurious chamber under the watchful eyes of two strangers. One is otherworldly and enigmatic, the other is the King himself-Calean Ryne, Helena's grieving betrothed.
Now, trapped between the fury of a mighty ruler and the enigma of her own survival, Alia must uncover the truth behind her gift, her destiny, and the immense forces at work-forces that surpass the trivial malice of her village.
