What does it really mean to be consumed by hatred?
What does hatred become, if left to simmer too long?
Born into the dregs of society and with a background drenched in the blood of her loved ones, fugitive and illusionist Corinne Loucair seeks vengeance against the powers at be in the colossal city of Port Creave-the King's Seat.
With a reluctant ally bound by oath to support his new, powerful representative, Corinne claws her way up through the ranks and right into the King's Court.
But what happens if the men and women in the King's Court are not the monsters she envisioned?

Battle in the Storm
In grief, she found vengeance. In vengeance, she may lose herself. Dr. Lydia Allard wanted to heal. War taught her how to hunt. Eleven years after the Fae opened portals into Earth, sparking war and misery across human cities and wildlands. Lydia-once a leading physician studying the lethal residue of Fae magic-has already paid the war's highest price: her parents and her young daughter. When her brother's experimental portal briefly succeeds and is then destroyed to keep it from the wrong hands, the only path into the Fae realm is through the enemy's own magics. With a rogue team-including a half-Fae ally-Lydia plans a perilous infiltration: pass as Fae within a human-realm based war camp to be carried through the gates into the heart of their realm to find the one who took her very soul. But the deeper they go, the more the war's narrative unravels. The magic that mummifies the dead whispers of design, not chaos. Allegiances blur. And a hidden architect seems intent on feeding two worlds into the same fire. Driven by a mother's grief and a scientist's precision, Lydia must navigate knives, lies, and a power awakening in her own bloodline-before the true enemy turns both realms into kindling.
