You always thought you'd be safe with Emeric Highborn, the light hero of Shroudhall, the Sun Master. He promised to protect you from everything and anything, readily laying his life down for you. But you didn't realize how wrong you were. When it came to keeping his reputation for the sake of his superhero family and you, he chose them over you.
You left Shroudhall after your break-up, brokenhearted and bitter. You didn't know that Emeric had been coerced; you didn't know that he'd spent 2 years after your breakup looking for you, and if you did, you didn't think you'd care.
So when you're taken along with other hostages, you don't know how to react when through the blood splattered over your face, you see the glowing figure of your ex-boyfriend fighting your captors. Your eyes met his gold ones and he faltered.
