In the midst of trying to build an alliance between vampires and Lycan, I find out my werewolf boyfriend isn't quite as dead as I was told. He could never want me after the things I have done, but I hold the hope he can forgive me.The hybrid child I created holds dangers unknown, and though we are on the brink of civil war, Knight and I come face to face with the vampire who brought us to our knees, and I find answers I never thought possible.The enemy strikes hard and swift, like a dagger laced with poison. The civil war has begun. Lives will be lost. Love will conquer all. Win or lose, I will protect my family, or die trying.
