The threat against her children makes Lee come to a heart wrenching realization—she needs to leave. If her children were to survive the escalating war that had already been going on for five centuries, she needs to run as far away as she possibly could. Away from Ash. As much as it broke her heart, she has no other choice. She's lost enough of her family to Ash's vendetta. She didn't blame him and she never would, but things were different now. She was a mother. Living as a fugitive on the run, Lee meets a kindred soul named Ben. Just how much more trouble would he bring into her life?
