In een realm where the tyrant King Malakor rules by forcing citizens into artificial Mate-Bonds, Elena is a glitch in het system. Born from a forbidden union of pure free will, she is een Freeborn, possessing a raw, unaligned magic that threatens the Crown. Ten years after watching the King slaugter her parents and her childhood best friend abondon her in the ashes, Elena has hardened into the Under-City's most fearless, vengeance-driven rebel leader.
The Crown-Executioner is the King's personal monster. Hidden behind a cold, featureless silver mask, he is a heartless killing machine who bleeds for the throne. Brainwashed by palace mentors, his past locked behind walls of grey mist. He fights only to keep his family safe in their golden prison, completely unaware that he is actually the King's biological son and a Freeborn himself.
When the Executioner is sent to hunt down the dangerous rebel leader, their blades collide in a public spectacle. But instead of a bloodbath, the unimaginable happens: the blade freezes.
An invisible diamond barrier explodes between them. Their weapons refuse to strike. Their magic fuses into a cataclysmic silver shockwave that shatters the arena.
Neither Elena nor the Executioner understands the terrifying phenomenon.
As Elena escapes back into the shadows and the Exectioner faces the wrath of a panicked King, a deadly game off cat and mouse begins. But how do you fight a war when your own body refuses to harm te enemy?
