When a deadly cult destroyed her family and forced Michaela Valdis Bronwen and her father to flee, she quickly learned the world they lived in was nothing like it seemed. Creatures of myths and legends existed, magic was real, and her family was at the heart of it all. Joseph Bronwen's heart broke when his wife and eldest daughter were killed by The Obscuritas, and all he wanted was to hide his youngest away from the world forever. But Michaela was determined to find her missing middle sister and get revenge against the cult that ruined their lives, even if that meant making a deal with a daemon.
With King Corson's spies hiding in their world and among the mortals on Earth, finding allies to overthrow the king was proving difficult for the daemon princes of Caligo. The daemons and lumens were at war, and any hope of salvation lived in the blood of Aurora Valdis's daughters. Morax Ormaenus wasn't one for prophecies, but when his brother, Phenex, shared enough of his secret plans to send him after a lumen hybrid, Morax had to believe fate was on their side. Michaela Valdis was nothing like he expected, and now that she was within his grasp, nothing and no one would take her away from him.
