My witchfire wakes for Cassian Dragomir-the immortal vampire king fate carved into my skin.The mate mark on my wrist burns brighter every night.And the court feels our bond rising like a storm.My magic mutates after the war.Sparks I can't control.Heat I can't hide.Power that responds to Cassian with every breath he takes near me.The High Houses want me chained or crowned.Cassian becomes my dark protector.Cold strength.Hot devotion.A king who stands between me and every nightmare.But when ancient magic erupts beneath the castle, my witchfire claims its true form.And sealing the mate bond with Cassian becomes the only way to save us all.
