"The stone first started to show on his father's right forearm. Pale onyx veins then spread throughout his body, shining like polished marble."               

Stone has claimed most of the magical creatures of the world, forcing the rest to go into hiding. It seeps into their skin and sucks the magic out of them, drop by drop until only their husks are left behind.                          

Xander is the prince of the Tuatha Dé Danaan, also known as the fae. He is tasked to find the one who can stop the stone. But after five decades of trying to find it, he comes up empty handed. Until one fateful night, when he sees a girl breathe life into stone.                   

Ember is that girl. She gets thrust into a place full of magic, mystery and tragedy. Danger shrouds her at every corner, as she struggles to save a world that isn't her own.

"Beckett thinks I like you," I announced. Oh my god, Lara! Shut up! My grip wavered as his hand came around my face, holding my cheek in his delicate touch. He brushed his thumb against my lower lip, his eyes averting back-and-forth between my eyes and lips. He ran his fingers up my abdomen, gliding it up my cleavage to my mouth. My hold on him softened until I completely let go-my hand falling limp in between us. My pulse throbbed in my wrist. He tilted my face up. "Do you?" My breathing picked up pace as I tried to concentrate on my feelings. His hands roamed about my body, leaving a trail of burning sensation to grow from his intoxicating touch. "Do you?" I countered. He smirked, his thumb grazing harder against my lips. He inched his face closer to mine. My heartbeat picked up pace. I didn't know what to do. My body froze as I tried to comprehend my next move. God! Why couldn't this be as easy as sparring? "I don't know, Lara," he said. He dipped his head low, and my eyes automatically fell shut. "Do I?" His lips crashed on mine. *** Lara Deadwings is a silver-blooded girl in a world full of red-bloods who won't accept her in the society.
