Book Description

Their uneasy alliance could lead to love—if the demon will allow it.

A Gezane Universe Novel

Melchior, King of the Bhresyas, is quickly growing tired of the war between his kind and the humans who view them as demons. He proposes a peace treaty with the most powerful human kingdom. His only stipulation? Once she comes of age, the human queen’s daughter must be his bride.

Serenity has spent her entire life preparing for her role at Melchior’s side. Other women might be frightened, but she embraces her destiny, knowing in her heart that she and Melchior have been twined together by fate.

While he wants cooperation between their two peoples, his union with Serenity cannot and should not lead to love. The more she tries to bring them together, the harder he pushes her away—until she lands in the arms of those who would do her harm.

Love is the answer. But before Melchior admits to his, it may be too late.

Warning: this title contains cursing, a sociopathic heroine, horny males, and copious amounts of gratuitous violence.

Excerpt

Serenity’s voice shook when she asked, “Was that all you wished of me, King Melchior? A legal marriage and nothing else?”

“My intentions were to solidify the peace, nothing else. You said on our wedding day you understood marriages of state, Serenity.”

“I understand a loveless marriage where heirs are still expected,” Serenity replied in a breathy voice. “I understand a marriage of convenience to unify two kingdoms into one. I do not understand why I needed to leave my home. I do not understand my place in this kingdom.”

“Cheslav is more inclined to keep and maintain the peace so long as you reside in Nexeu.”

“I’m a hostage.”
