His enemy's courtesan. Her only chance of escape.
As the assassin for his duke, Lord Silas Graveston's world is clear-cut-protect his liege, protect his family name and honor, and the rest will take care of itself... Or so he believed until three years ago, when his aunt was attacked in the capital and his family's emerald necklace stolen.
When the emerald choker appears upon the neck of his long-sworn enemy's new courtesan, Silas knows he'll stop at nothing to get it back.
But Silas isn't the only one engaged in a deep masquerade, and he's not the only assassin in the queen's court.
The threat of violence is a familiar shadow for Natalya Slipshayde, an ever-present force following her every step. She has no family, no code. All she needs is a way out.
Unfortunately for them both, the webs of Draykemire are more intricate than even the most skilled assassin can navigate, and there are predators lurking at every turn.
