Octalia Trevarto, a Fey descendant of a goddess, returns from a fishing trip to find her village in flames, under attack by the king's soldiers. She feels helpless, powerless to prevent the utter destruction wrought by a king who has vowed to destroy Fey, dragons, any citizens with special abilities. As a lone survivor, she decides that hiding right under the nose of her enemy is a better option than fleeing further into the forest. She does not foresee the consequences of her actions.

Octalia wakes in a clinical room to discover she has become the test subject of two scientists for a transplant experiment. And she is not alone... There is another patient. A man she feels instantly drawn to, but who is he?
