Torn between two realms, the fate of a kingdom and my father hang in the balance... I need my mate-a darkly dangerous fae prince-more than ever. And he needs me to help claim his throne. But Ruskin is gone. Disappeared into a place most dare not speak of. There isn't time to mourn. In the human realm, a cruel king holds my father captive. While in the fae realm, Ruskin's mother, Evanthe, is determined to use her corrupted magic to wreak havoc on the Seelie Court. Suddenly, something is changing in me. And I'm afraid that as my powers become more fae, I'll become just as cruel and violent as the worst of them. Especially when a terrifying new prophecy comes to light. Ruskin and I might not be the ones to save the fae...but the ones destined to destroy them.
