I don't know what happened to my life.
Just a few months ago, I was independent and had an exciting
job I loved. Now, along with my friends, I'm in hiding.
Why? Because I'm one of the Five, a group of human women
bestowed with powers and abilities to fight and control supernatural beings. A
prophesy was written about us centuries ago. We are supposed to save the world,
though none of us knows how.
Now, Cornelius, the leader of a malevolent group known as
the Faction believes that by killing us and absorbing our power, he will become
unstoppable in his bid to control not only the supernatural domain, but the
entire world.
After evading capture and an attempt on my life forced me
into months of hiding, I finally have a chance to take action against the
Faction — as bait.
Asher Leroux, the vampire tasked with helping me, makes me
feel things I don't understand. It's as if he fills the empty places in my
soul, spaces that I didn't know existed.
As the final battle draws closer, I know that defeating the Faction won't give me back the life I once had, but maybe that's not such a bad deal after all.
