To elude Kailer St. James, Azreah agreed to return to Akkadia, where not even the Dumuzi can step foot. Unfortunately, the beautiful alpha land is the last place Azzy wants to be. Now a refugee in the home of the man who crushed her, Azzy is also confronted with memories of the past she's tried perpetually to forget. Abel isn't the wild, carefree spirit she left behind, though. He's grown into a kind, polished prince with unlimited patience and unwavering adoration. Refusing to let Abel sneak back into her heart is close to impossible. Making things harder is Kai, who turns up with an ultimatum: turn over Azzy or face a procreant massacre. Unwilling to accept either scenario, Abel and the rest of the Akkadians agree that they must first find their Alpha. Allah is the only one who can reset the balance between the species and defeat Kailer for good. On the road once again, Azzy finds her allegiance tested. Blood is spilled, and the answers to questions she didn't even know to ask become clear. Betrayal is possible from either side, but with the stakes so high, will Azreah survive or become another casualty?
