Souls of the Lost

The Houses' needed protection - allies to support them as the threat of a long ago prophecy loomed over them, taunting them at every turn and all five houses rushing to form bondings in whichever way they could.
Callista Barros turned out to be the way for the House of Barros to bind themselves to the House of Madden, an alliance formed using the sacred vows of marriage to Nicholas Madden, the most feared fae in Ekradel.
Callista has accepted her fate, doing all she can to fulfil her purpose and make the best of the impossible and less than ideal situation.
However, with a husband who possesses no need for a civil friendship, much less relationship, and a neglectful family who seem to possess secrets regarding her which start to slowly unravel as time goes on, Callista feels as though she is on borrowed time, the impending drop of doom threatening to drop on her.
