The king of Hybern has been terrorizing Prythian for centuries, threatening to overtake the territory.

The night court was supposed to stop him, to invade his castle and murder him. It didn’t go to plan. The king used you and your sister as pawns, dunking you in the magic cauldron and turning your once human body into a fae one. Rhysand, Azriel, Cassian, your two sisters, as well as Lucien and Tamlin can only watch.

As soon as you emerge from the freezing water, you feel it. The tug in your chest. The mating bond that leads to Lucien. You have never met him personally, but your sister Feyre tells stories of him.

Lucien instantly lunges for you, shielding you from the King and covering you with his cloak. He’s lost so much, his family, his brother, his first love. He’s just found his mate, he cannot loose you.
