All I know is that I will do anything to avoid becoming like Lucifer, and to protect those I love, even if that means protecting them from me.Kobal,No matter what it takes, I will keep River safe, even if my actions end up driving a wedge between us. River is mine to protect, no matter how hard that might be to do now that our journey has begun. I won't stop until Lucifer is destroyed, won't stop until I claim my throne, and she will be by my side when I do. It's all just a matter of keeping her alive until then.***This Series will follow Kobal and River throughout. Not all things will be resolved in this book. Due to graphic language, violence and sexual content this book is recommended for readers 18+ years of age.***
