Take him from Heaven's Seat. Bring him to me. We will protect his sacred head. Stryver Zorti's mission appears simple. Kidnap the Godchild and deliver him to his master. But with the first meeting of the holy man's azure gaze, desire surges in him to strip bare the God and touch the man within. Worshiped all his life, the Godchild is shocked by the stranger who dares lay hands on him, even if it is to save him from assassins. With a different name given by his new ally, Blue is freed from the constraints of the holy order for the first time. He revels in the extraordinary experiences opening to him, then in the passion that sparks between him and the hard-edged, oddly gentle Stryver. But a god does not love, and if discovered, their precarious utopia will shatter, destroying any chance for a future together--that is, if the assassins don't kill them first.
