Why am I pink? I've always wondered. I've always asked. I've checked every file in the ODP archives, too, but nobody could ever give me an answer. Until I meet three high fae who seem to know everything about me. They mock me, humiliate me, and I can do nothing but take it. And that's not even my only concern. Derek Dane is gone, and Dominic needs my help to find him. Having to play bait isn't something I look forward to. Sleeping under the same roof with him is going to test both of us, and we were never good with keeping our hands off each other.

Everything I needed to fight until my dying breath was right there in my hands, until it wasn't anymore. I made Erick Adams into the monster that he is today. I doomed the whole world by giving him the means to become invincible. Wilder said to me once that, whether it's a blessing or a cruse, I'm never, ever on my own. This time, it will be no different. I'll go to the end of the worlds if I have to, sell my soul to whoever will buy it, just to kill the monster I created, and save the people I love from a fate more horrible than death.

Being accused of treason against the paranormal community on Earth and getting dragged out of my apartment by ECU soldiers was nothing short of what I deserved. It's why I let them have their way with me, until five masked witches manage to kidnap me right in front of the soldiers.

The Carnival of Light didn't exactly go the way the ECU had imagined. We ended up putting the best show in the world for them. Hiding away in an abandoned monastery while all our enemies knew where we were sounded much better as an idea. Now that we were actually living there, all Storm witches who'd come to meet us at the carnival, it was a whole other story. We'd gotten every person on the ECU hit-list under one roof, and we had no means to protect them. Yet. Finding the Spellmaker kid is our top priority. Without spells, we don't have much hope to make our place in the world.

The Elyseans have always thought themselves better than us mortals. At least, that's what they want the whole world to think. I believe it—until I complete the Elysean Trials they force me in and attend the Academy of Divine Light and Beauty. Until I meet a real Olympian goddess, and she finally sheds light on the gods' biggest secret, and it's worse than I could have ever imagined. Turns out, there's a purpose to the Elysean Trails. There's a reason why they exist and why they choose mortals to bring to their Academy. A very good reason, just not the one the world knows.

I never wanted to have anything to do with Elyseans, descendants of the Olympian gods. When I'm forced to participate in their deadly trials, I also learn that not everything is as it looks, and my past might just be very different from what I remember. So when I complete their trials, and they offer me an invitation to the Academy, I do the unthinkable and say yes. The plan is simple—find the man who did something outrageous to me when I was five years old, get out of the city of gods, and never look back. If only it were that simple.

When I left my captor behind and went home to prepare for my wedding, I was sure about a lot of things: I was never going to see Lucien Di Laurier again until he came to kill me in two years. I was never going to learn more about the reign of dragons, how it started, what it means. I was never going to change my mind about who my father is... who my mother was. And I was dead wrong about all of it. Pretty engagement dresses, fancy gifts, and parties do not change the truth about my life. I am a prisoner still, in my own home, in my own skin.

I heard the stories about Savage Ax. They're whispered among vampires everywhere in the Hidden Realm. He's dangerous, merciless, a predator even among monsters…but nobody told me that he was dangerously sexy, too. Now, on top of having to go searching for a vampire out there in the human world infested with sorcerers, I have to do it with him by my side.

My family has played god with shifters for over eight centuries. They've conquered in silence, have gathered and saved power for themselves, failing their people. No more. The draca live. All four of us are alive, on the same timeline, and we have what it takes to summon the Ether and bring back the balance of elements in our world. Give the people back their magic. Put a stop to the Azarius reign.

When we summoned the Ether, we thought we were saving the world. We thought we were ending the reign of dragons, freeing the people of power-hungry Azarius kings and queens once and for all. Turns out, none of us had any idea what the reign of dragons truly meant.

Ennaris used to be whole once. A beautiful land full of magic and magical creatures, a place where dreams come true. Then a siren was betrayed by her sisters. A siren ate the heart of a man she loved—and ruined the entire continent.

The Evernight brothers are determined to have me, and now that I'm all alone, trapped in their castle, it's only a matter of time before one of them claims me. And there is nothing I can do about it. Grey is gone, sucked in by a hole in the sky, and I'm all alone, surrounded by the Evernights. Surrounded by brides and a whole nation of Enchanted who hated my guts, and blamed me for Grey's banishment. The brothers are looking for reasons to punish me and force me to become theirs. Sooner or later they'll succeed—if I don't find a way to protect myself first.

I made a deal with a sorcerer. I'll help him stop an evil nobody even knows exists yet. In exchange, he'll set me free of the monster that lives inside me. Sounds like a sweet deal, right? I thought so, but there's one thing I forgot to think about: Ax Creed.
