En'Daria is on the run from an unknown enemy, aided by a pit fighter and a cyborg hybrid she isn't sure she should trust. While she grows closer every day to Croe'ix, her attraction to Tyn-Hy the Cold leave her confused. She wants him. She's wary of him. She's enchanted by the glimpses of vulnerability she sees in him, but also senses the danger hidden beneath his emotionless façade. Ominous dreams and erotic interludes with her traveling companions leave Daria wondering if she'll return to Endiku with her heart intact.
Tyn-Hy the Cold has never been this disturbed in his remembered existence. He worships at the altars of Logic and Emotional Distance, yet from the moment he sees En'Daria, things begin to change. When the princess's enemy offers him the one thing he wants, it seems a logical choice to get closer to En'Daria to gain her trust before he ends her life. But between a highly protective Croe'ix and the strange feelings En'Daria stirs in him, he will have to decide if bonding with them both is worth giving up his quest to discover his past and, instead, look to the future.
