Synopsis
Only one path remains for the woodcutter's daughter Ellysetta and her truemate, the Fey King Rain. Souls bound, magic entwined, they must join forces with their allies to defeat the gathering might of the Dark mage Vadim Maur and the army of Eld—or die trying. Ellysetta's birth was engineered by High Mage Vadim Maur himself so he could take over her body when the time was right. Now Ellysetta hasn't fully revealed the secret of her parentage to Rain because she fears what he will do when he finds out the truth. How can she be the truemate of the Tairen Soul when she carries the taint of Eld?
