All my life, I was trained to be the perfect killer. An assassin. A ghost in the night. The sort of phantom that gives grown men nightmares. But the woman who raised me to hunt dragon shifters made a mistake, and that blunder left me marked. Magical. Determined to undo all of this, Zurie is now at war. With me.

There are no boundaries to what I can do - and that terrifies everyone who has been trying so desperately to control me. The fact is, I’m a diamond dragon - the only one of my kind. The only other diamond dragons in history were the gods themselves. So...what does that make me?
