When an exiled half-breed Dark Fae princess's family goes missing, she seeks the help of a master mage. Eve Darknight, daughter of a Dark Fae princess and a Kitsune shifter, has had many challenges through her life, the most recent being the disappearance of her mother and stepfather. She seems help from the only person who, aside from her parents, cared for her as a child, Master Mage and Praetor, Cyrus Stormwrend. Cyrus, however, is trying to give up his powers and become a mortal being again, having lost his wife and many friends over the centuries. A Dark Fae king had gifted him with immortality for helping him in a time of need, but Cyrus, after so long, is ready to leave it behind. Can a misfit princess convince the Master Mage that he's needed still, and can the Mage convince her that she's worth so much more than she has been made to believe?
