Angol
He was raised to destroy her kind. She was meant to fear his name. Now they're bound by a promise neither expected to work.
Brutus once led the children of Theseus with pride and fury-until his capture exposed the truth behind his blood-soaked crusade. After kidnapping several daughters of Helios in a bid to wipe out the Minotaurs he was bred to hate, he now sits in an underground prison, his past sins gnaw at a conscience he never used to hear. His only path to freedom? An arranged marriage with the very bloodline he once sought to destroy.
Crys has lived in quiet exile since rejecting her fated mate more than twenty years ago. Guilt has become her constant companion, but healing has taken root in the frozen reaches of the North West Angle. When offered the chance to redeem herself by agreeing to a bond no one else will take, she doesn't hesitate. She knows who Brutus is-even if he doesn't remember her.
He doesn't recognize her face. She can't forget his sins.
Neither of them expects to fall in love.
But in a city of vampires, secrets, and quiet surveillance, something deeper stirs between them-something that threatens the fragile peace of their union and the truth they've both tried to bury.
Duty brought them together. Truth may tear them apart.
But love? Love could rewrite everything.
