When everyone she has ever known is massacred, Aylsa becomes the lone survivor of her wild elf village. Lost in grief and thrust into a world she does not understand, she clings to the one being who offers her comfort: the enigmatic elf who calls himself Elreth. But Elreth is no ordinary elf. He has waited lifetimes for her, hunted her since her first breath, and will stop at nothing to claim her as his own. To Aylsa, he is a savior, a guide, a stern master who promises safety in a world that feels cold and hostile. Yet beneath his watchful care lies a hunger she cannot name-and a plan she does not suspect. As she struggles to reconcile her innocence with the weight of loss, Aylsa must navigate forbidden desires, the fragile trust between creator and fledgling, and the tangled bond that ties her fate to Elreth's ancient will. Torn between freedom and devotion, love and fear, Aylsa begins to question whether her protector has saved her life... or stolen it.
