The battle continues as the Witches choose another target. Secrets are exposed when the Hand-Me-Down Boys(Demi-deuil) of Fire Ridge Pride join forces with the Blood-rights of Amber Light Pride. Who lives, who dies, and who is caught in the middle?
Hide and seek becomes a dangerous game when Alisdaire Di Gatti, Blood-right and grandson of the Fire god, goes missing. Every attempt to locate him fails until the God Council mates him to the only Hand-Me-Down Boy who can find the living.
Elijah Di Gatti is crushed when the mating contract arrives for Lane Barstow, and it includes his brother's name. He knows Lane is honorable and would save Daire, no matter what. Elijah also knows his brother is conceited and cares only for himself. Elijah wants Lane any way he can have him and makes a blood pact with the goddess. She grants him permission to help Lane when things go wrong- and they will.
Will the Witches succeed and take Lane down, too, or can Elijah save Lane's life and win his heart?
We find what you left behind.
All blood bleeds red, but it does not always bleed magic.
