I should have listened to my instincts, should have run…
Twenty-two-year-old Etarla Torlanne’s entire life has been shaped by the Domus—and the withering land, divided Territories, and suffering that resulted from its shimmering walls. Content to never leave her village, Etarla cares solely about her caretaker and survival. That is until an encounter in the woods makes her the most important asset in the six Territories…and leaves her with the violet and gold irises to prove it.
From the moment her eyes change, Etarla is hunted by the most feared Territory leaders for reasons she doesn’t understand. It’s only when she’s captured by Harthon, the fierce former mercenary with a ruthless reputation, that she learns of her newly acquired value. She doesn’t merely have new eyes; she now holds the knowledge that could save her world or magnify its suffering. Knowledge that could make someone king. Knowledge Harthon fully intends to use.
Unwillingly thrust into a new reality of high politics, perilous danger, and weighted consequences, Etarla must grapple with her unwanted responsibility and the dangerous man who’s far more than he appears.
