In a war-torn wasteland, desire is as dangerous as the demons outside. I've spent my life fighting for my people--fighting to keep them safe, to keep them alive. In a world where magic is fading and the earth itself seems ready to crumble, I've been their shield, their sword, their unshakable leader. Emotions have no place in my world. Desires are a distraction. Until now. The betrayal came like a knife to the back, cutting deeper than any blade. And now, everything I've worked for teeters on the edge of ruin. To survive, I'll have to trust the unthinkable--the son of my enemy, a man who embodies everything I've been trained to hate. Worse, he's not my only complication. My longtime lover feels every emotion I try to hide, and together, the three of us form a bond I don't understand but can't ignore. Passion. Power. Pain. If I lean into them, it might destroy me. But if I don't, we'll all burn.
