Until a blind priestess lays claim to a half-breed warrior, body and soulβ¦ Hunted and marked for death by NaβReish demons for their half-blood heritage, the NaβChi are searching for a new homeβsomething an alliance offered by the human leader could provide. With both races divided by prejudice, when Light Blade rebels brutally attack the NaβChi, the alliance seems doomed to fail. Varian, leader of the NaβChi, 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 heβs afraid heβll loseβuntil he meets Kymora Tayn, a priestess driven to serve her deity. While heβs unwilling to trust anyone outside his people, he finds himself drawn to Kymoraβs strength and passionate nature, and discovers she has the power to calm the darkness inside him. When the NaβReish raid human territory for blood-slaves and kickstart the war, the key to the survival of both racesβNaβChi and humanβis an alliance. However when Kymora is kidnapped, pitting human against human, Varian realizes he must embrace his darker half, not only to save the allianceβ¦but also the woman he loves.
