<p>Elira Vane never imagined she would be chosen by a prophecy she didn't understand-and yet the High Oracle declares that the fate of the world rests upon her union with the Demon King.

In a world where destinies are written in blood and obedience love becomes the most dangerous rebellion of all.</p><p>Some marriages are forced.<br>Some loves are earned.<br>And some flames-once ignited-cannot be extinguished.</p>
