Olena Shevtsova

A necromancer from the Dark Principality. A light mage from the Secret Chancellery. Their union is doomed... or perhaps it is only the beginning. Alika's reputation has been destroyed by her cousin's intrigues, and her family's patience has finally run out. Now she has a groom she has never met, a marriage arranged without her consent, and, perhaps, the only chance to escape the Dark lands before the scandal consumes her completely.
Dan Kir ri Ramar is a light mage and an officer of the Secret Chancellery. A forced marriage is the last thing he wants. He does not believe in love, and to him, Alika is merely another political pawn placed in his path. But what if he is wrong?Duty and desire, loyalty and betrayal, suspicion and trust: their story is just unfolding. Neither of them wanted this marriage. But perhaps it will become the one thing that saves them both.
