Ellyana Harrow is an outcast. Born in a world of the fae and offered to the military of the Human Realm, her heritage made her a second-class citizen. But despite her hardships, Ellyana rose through ranks to become one of the most talented intelligence officers in the kingdom. Her latest assignment is a subject named Galenor, a fae from the Realm of Wind. She needs to spend a month locked in the same quarters as the fae, befriend the subject and extract any information she is ordered to.

Ellyana finds herself betrayed and imprisoned, separated from Galenor and uncertain about her future. Has she sacrificed her entire career for a lie? Survival demands Ellyana’s compliance with Prince Dorian’s manipulative schemes, the mastermind behind this betrayal. As she discovers her pivotal role in the feud between brothers, choosing a side becomes imperative. The challenge intensifies as Prince Dorian closely monitors her, tempting her with an offer she can’t reject. Reluctantly bound to the prince, she is struggling with a task she swore never to undertake again.
