The nomad life calls to me, as does the drive to hunt a dark soul. On the road, the last thing I expect to discover is an unconscious woman. Finding her on the brink of death sends a pang to my chest, and with it comes clarity. I want her to be mine.

It's a mystery how she ended up on death's door, one I'm determined to explore. There's more to Aura than meets the eye, but I knew that from the moment I touched her. Lies and lust, beauty and betrayal, all of it is a price I'm willing to pay. I'll do anything to keep her. Anything.

After all, I'm no prince, and this is no fairytale.
