I tried to save my Charge. Now I may have doomed him.

When the Guild threatened Mark, I broke every law of magic to save him— passing my power into him in a spell no man survives unchanged.

Now he carries my magic.

And it’s burning him alive.

The Guild wants him dead before he becomes something uncontrollable.
A secret faction is moving against powerful mages.
Witches are disappearing without explanation.

But the real battle is personal.

Mark’s power surges violently.
His temper fractures.
His control slips.

And for the first time since destiny bound us together… I’m afraid of what he’s becoming.

With our wedding days away in Scotland and even dragons unable to shield us from what’s coming, I’m running out of time to save the man I was born to love.

Because if I fail—

The Guild will execute him.

And not just him.

Our child will never be born.
