For weeks, he stood by my side, twisting his words into pretty half-truths. He enraptured me with his smooth temptation, leaving no corner of my being untouched. He consumed my mind and my body, then finally claimed my heart for himself. But Caelum’s true identity is terrifying enough to bring me to my knees. Then, I discovered the truth of who he is. Caldris is whispered in the Nothrek wind. The legend we only speak of with hushed words, in shuttered rooms, for fear of drawing his wrath once again.

Estrella ist am Boden zerstört. Wochenlang hat Caelum sie mit geflüsterten Versprechungen und manipulativen Halbwahrheiten umgarnt, um ihr Herz zu erobern. Bis er schließlich die Wahrheit über sich offenbarte: Er ist Caldris – ein Gott, über den nur hinter vorgehaltener Hand und mit geflüsterten Worten gesprochen wird. Und er ist ihr Fae-Gemahl. Entschlossen, sie nach Alfheimr zu bringen, muss Caldris Estrella nicht nur vor seinen Feinden beschützen, die ihren Tod wollen, sondern auch vor den Menschen, die sie für die Zerstörung der Barriere verantwortlich machen.

Jahrhundertelang schützte eine magische Barriere die Welt der Menschen vor Alfheimr, dem Königreich der Fae. Doch als dieser Schleier bei einem Ritual zerbirst, findet sich Estrella mit einem geheimnisvollen Mal gebrandmarkt und auf der Flucht wieder – nicht nur vor der Wilden Jagd, die sie zu ihrem künftigen Fae-Gemahl bringen soll, sondern auch vor ihren Mitmenschen, die sie aus Angst töten wollen, bevor das passiert. Auf ihrer Reise trifft sie auf den attraktiven Caelum, der wie sie mit einem seltsamen Mal gekennzeichnet ist und zu dem sie eine unbestreitbare Anziehung verspürt.
