The queen's traumatic contest is over, but that's just the beginning of Sera's journey. Sera only wanted to survive the contest. She never wanted to win, and she certainly didn't want to stay in Seelie Court. But as the betrothed to Prince Camden, it looks like she doesn't have a choice. Until Fate throws her a twisted and dangerous lifeline. Mysterious Dark Fae crawl out of the depths of their tunnels and caves and invade Seelie. They demand Sera surrenders Queen Lani's powerful diadem, and she has no choice but to run. Sera flees to the one place Dark Fae won't think to look: Unseelie Court. King Sebastian helps Sera understand her new power and her past. Truths are revealed. Some hurt, while others have the potential to change the Fae Realm forever. Sera had only wanted to survive, but Fate has other plans. Will she make it out of this mess alive? Or is she bound to die to free the power of the Dark Queen's diadem?
