UN’OMBRA FRA LE BRACI, UNA LUCE NELLA FIAMMA, CHE DIVERRÀ UN FUOCO NELLA CARNE. "Il mio cuore perse un battito. Stavo fissando il Primordiale della Morte. E per la prima volta in vita mia provavo autentico terrore. Lui non aveva ragione di sospettare che io fossi qualcosa di diverso da quello che sembravo. Non poteva sapere che, nei due secoli che aveva dovuto attendere per la mia nascita, avevamo scoperto come uccidere un Primordiale. L’amore. Quello era il loro punto debole. Fallo innamorare. Diventa la sua debolezza. E poi annientalo. E questo era il mio destino." Scelta ancor prima di nascere per salvare il suo popolo, Seraphena Mierel sa di non avere alcun controllo sulla propria vita. E ora deve lasciarsi tutto alle spalle e diventare la consorte del Primordiale della Morte. Il suo vero destino è il segreto più gelosamente custodito di tutta Lasania: lei, in realtà, non è la Vergine promessa dai Fati, ma un’assassina con una missione da compiere. Deve far innamorare il Primordiale della Morte, diventare il suo punto debole, e poi… eliminarlo. Ed è una missione che non ammette il fallimento, perché condannerebbe l’intero Regno di Lasania alla rovina. Sera ha sempre avuto ben chiaro ciò che l’aspetta, ciò che è. Prescelta. Moglie. Assassina. Arma… Un’ombra appena abbozzata ma grondante di sangue. Un mostro. Fino a lui. Perché le parole inaspettate del suo consorte all’improvviso scacciano le tenebre che Sera porta nel cuore, e il suo tocco seducente accende in lei una passione che mai avrebbe sognato di sperimentare. Ma Sera non ha scelta, non l’ha mai avuta. Perché è stata toccata per sempre dalla Vita e dalla Morte.
