Romance
There is no mercy in the demon realm. No escape. In this place of desperation and conflict, anyone who is not purebred is virtually powerless. Until a blind priestess lays claim to a half-breed warrior, body and soulโฆ Hunted and marked for death by NaโReish demons for their half-blood heritage, the NaโChi are searching for a new homeโsomething an alliance offered by the human leader could provide. With both races divided by prejudice, when Light Blade rebels brutally attack the NaโChi, the alliance seems doomed to fail. Varian, leader of the NaโChi, a hybrid race of gifted warriors, is cursed with the darker impulses of his demon heritage. Controlling the part of himself that craves the high of the battle is a struggle heโs afraid heโll loseโuntil he meets Kymora Tayn, a priestess driven to serve her deity. While heโs unwilling to trust anyone outside his people, he finds himself drawn to Kymoraโs strength and passionate nature, and discovers she has the power to calm the darkness inside him. When the NaโReish raid human territory for blood-slaves and kickstart the war, the key to the survival of both racesโNaโChi and humanโis an alliance. However when Kymora is kidnapped, pitting human against human, Varian realizes he must embrace his darker half, not only to save the allianceโฆbut also the woman he loves.
