The Guild wants my husband dead.

And the most dangerous mage-lawyer alive is offering me a choice:

Divorce Mark…
or watch him executed.

Mark is my Charge—the man I was born to love, protect, and die for. I broke every magical law to save him. I bound my power to his. I brought him back from death.

Now the Guild fears what we’ve become.

When Rick discovers I’m pregnant, he weaponizes it. He forges divorce papers in my name, drives a wedge between me and Mark, and makes sure every word I send him disappears. He turns the Guild against us and pushes for a trial that won’t end in justice—only execution.

If I stand beside my husband, they’ll condemn him for the power I gave him—and expose our unborn child to a world that already wants us destroyed.

They call Mark’s magic unstable. Dangerous.

They’re right.

Because if they force me to choose between love and survival—

the dragons of Loch Ness won’t be the fiercest fire we unleash.
