They ended up working together and made a great team. He tried to hate her and manipulate her trust to escape but couldn't shake his protective streak. She was ultimately true to her instincts, brave and took care of him at great risk to herself. Revisiting the dead mountain Mina and Rowan had an interesting start to their story, with Mina reminding me of a siren luring her King to capture and the humans hold him prisoner. Each book gives you a completely different experience and vibrant characters, it's not just the same old concept with different names like some SFR series.

the rest of the book was great and I still had to rate 5 stars. Thankfully they only appeared at the beginning and end briefly. I was even more disappointed when the coven was doing some blood magic thing. Zoey's writing and world building is fantastic and I really felt like there were so many other paths that could have replaced that part being more unique and fulfilling to the story she is creating. I was worried the whole witches thing was going to ruin the entire book, it's such a generic overused plot line and I didn't feel like it fit in with the world of Dakar with Kakari and Drukar. When he discovers my ultimate betrayal, the enraged horde king vows he will take me as his prize, that I will wear his chains, and that I will serve him in whatever way he wishes.Īnd, as the dangers on Dakkar loom, I find myself craving my wicked, wicked ruin.all at the hands of a horde king I should’ve never crossed.

Instead of fear, I feel hot and unwanted desire, awakening instincts that tell me I’m his. Yet, when I offer myself to him, all under the premise of luring him back to the witch, his touch sets my blood on fire. Only the horde king in question is the fiercest male I’ve ever seen, with glowing demon eyes, a god-like body crafted in battle, and a cold, cruel grin that promises destruction. Instead, she finds herself wearing his chains…Īs a fatal curse continues to spread over the planet of Dakkar, I make a deal with an alien witch who claims she can stop it. To save Dakkar, she must lure him to his deadly prison.
