Snippet. The large, looming figure bent down on one knee, studying me. I was nearly flattened on the ground, staring at the one towering over me. He leaned in closer. Time was slowing down. My muscles stiffened and I stared – I was watching a dangerous predator ready to sink its teeth in and finish the job. I tried to think of a way out, but it came up blank. I saw something I shouldn’t have. I was going to die right there. “Rise,” he commanded. The power in his voice reverberated throughout my body. The weight holding me down loosened, and I sat up with ease. Words escaped me when a large arm stretched out. Somehow, I was compelled to take it, feeling safe to do so. Before our hands made contact, a static spark struck me from his fingertip, and I was instantly transported back to that snowy pathway under the northern lights. Background is the top of a body of water.

Princess Saphirra has no shortage of problems: the threatened mage uprising, a recent assassination attempt, and to top it all off, the king is missing, which means her years of cleverly avoiding marriage are coming to a close. A political rival and likely insurrectionist, the great mage Algar, proposes marriage as a means to solve her issues - the threat is clear, marry him or face an attack. But Saphirra knows the true source of his power is an enslaved mage named Reve and Reve is a far more tolerable option for marriage. Reve has a secret that only Algar knows; he’s not entirely human, which is why he’s only been used as a weapon...until now.
