Publisher's Synopsis
Honor. Duty. Ritual. The Vhalgenn is a warrior, bedmate, soulmate, companion, and friend. Trusted by the king. Hated by the queen. To save the newborn prince, the Vhalgenn will risk her position, her honor, and death itself to honor the Old Ways. But when she takes the newborn prince to the queen's homeland for a ritual blessing, Raik discovers a betrayal so deep the kingdom -- and her heart -- might never recover.
