"Is freedom always worth the cost, even when it would cost you everything?" After the life-changing past week, Destiny Walker knows she's messed up, but she isn't stupid. Her magic's missing at the moment, some big-name Magiks want her dead, and as long as she's property of the director of the vampire internal affairs agency, she has protections she wouldn't have if she were a person. The problem with the 'property' thing is what kind she is: concubine. Her owner ignores that part of it, perhaps because he's fonder of her than is good for him. Regardless, after what her previous owner put her through, she's perfectly happy with the haven her new owner provides. She's not the only one he protects, and she'll do whatever she must, to keep him safe. No matter who's behind the attempts to kill him. --- A fast-paced dark urban fantasy novel wherein a girl must figure out what she wants despite others' interference. Contains mature themes, some violence and gore, and a few cases of objectionable language.
