Kiyarran always wanted to be a fighter. Now that he’s made it into the ranks of the elite Protectors of the Realm, he discovers he isn’t meant to protect his homeland but something far greater: the Veil.
The Veil separates two worlds. On one side lie untold stores of magic. On the other–Kiyarran’s side–magic is all but gone, and he’s one of the few who can control it. The priests who secretly rule the Realm see Kiyarran’s magical abilities as both a threat and a tool, and do everything they can to control him. It’s a price he’s willing to pay to be the Protector he’s always dreamed of being, even though it comes between him and Issiyanna, the princess he loves.
But the Veil has weakened in the last thousand years, and powers on both sides will do anything to keep it intact. To strengthen it, strangers from the other side have kidnapped Issiyanna. They intend to take her across the Veil and sacrifice her to strengthen the Veil. Kiyarran is the only one who can find her before it’s too late. If he chooses love over duty, he loses everything he’s worked so hard to get. But if he chooses duty over love, Issiyanna will die. Free on Kindle.
