In a world where humans are prey, Vesper is the exception - she's the Dark King's.
Zaren doesn't keep pets. He makes one rule-breaking decision the night he pulls a defiant, sharp-tongued human girl from the auction block and chains her to his throne room. Not to break her. Not yet.
But Vesper refuses to be tamed. And Zaren discovers, too slowly, that the real danger was never her defiance.
It was how much he wanted it.
