It wasn't meant to be like this.
Dylan's life in the spellster tower grants him everything he ought to need: magical knowledge, safety and women. All at the cost of his freedom. When the chance to leave the tower—even as a leashed weapon for the King's Army—arises, he seizes it.
Things go from bad to worse as his first scouting mission goes awry, casting him adrift in a hostile world with the tower a distant beacon of safety. Only the flirtatious Tracker, an elven man whose very presence awakens a long-repressed desire in Dylan, can escort him back to his old life.
But Dylan is soon to discover that his internal dilemma of lying with another man could be the least of his concerns as everything he thought he knew begins to unravel around him. Views: 39
