Part of The League: Nemesis Rising, book 5.5
First published 2017
Maris Sulle was born different in a royal Phrixian military family that valued conformity above all else. As one of their most skilled warriors, he fought to prove his worth until his deadly secret destroyed his birthright, his family ties, and his military standing. Ture Xans has spent years hiding from everyone who might hurt him, keeping his head down and trusting only his best friend. When the League captures Ture during a coup he never wanted to join, the legendary soldier saves his life. Both men carry deep scars from betrayal and loss. Maris knows that relationships end in disaster, yet something about Ture makes him stay when wisdom says to leave. Ture cannot understand why this fierce warrior would risk everything for him. When their past enemies resurface to destroy them both, the two outcasts must choose between fighting together or facing death alone.
