My name is Hector Briar, and I live for revenge. It's been eighteen years since Witch Hunters murdered my parents, and still, the night haunts me. A part of me died that night when six-year-old me was forced to listen to their brutal murder. Since then, I've gone from prey to predator. I spend my nights stalking Oxford's streets for those who'd see me slaughtered for being what I am. A witch. And more than that, the son of the last Grand High.

What a disaster! I only just made my flight to New York to help my uncle, and the phone I'm holding is not mine! It seems to belong to some commitment-phobic serial dater who's never made it past four dates (according to the constant notifications he's getting from his fake dating profile).... And worse? I have a sinking feeling it's that hot suit-monkey with the arctic grey eyes I just had a run-in with at the airport. Somehow, I have to persuade him not to get a new phone until I get back. My whole life is on that phone. I knew I should have backed it up. It's only a few days. Surely, we can handle it.

When I launched the knife to stop the warlock aiding the enemy's escape, it took me a moment too long to realize the man I'd killed was my mate. When I met Wren again in Otherworld and he thanked me for killing him, I realized my hasty action had turned out to be his salvation. I'd never been the kind of person someone went to for comfort, but could I be that for my mate while also protecting him from the evil we're working to defeat?

Nothing felt worse than getting betrayed by the person you trusted the most. Finding out I'd been around my mate for decades without recognizing him hurt. But with an evil queen intent on usurping the throne of Otherworld, and all of the demon realm under threat, we hardly had time for romance. Not that I'd let that stop me, no matter how reluctant Lionel was to accept me as his mate. Could I balance love and war, and win them both?

Would I be able to get out in time, or was this the end for me?

But with children getting kidnapped and an evil unlike I'd ever seen growing stronger, my realm and my king needed me more than ever. Could I really make a choice between my family and my mate?
