It takes more than mushrooms to break Nora’s will.
Spending years working in the fields to fill the kitchens of the Order Academy has kept Nora alive, giving her a space to keep her head down amongst the towering rows of gargantuan mushrooms. She was strong before she arrived and is stronger now after years of hard labor, and she knows she has to escape or die a slave in the sunbaked fields. She has a plan, ready to act on one of the two rumors she learned over the years.
She just needs the right Aetheriani to bargain with.
Crystallo looks like an angel, with glimmering white wings and devilish eyes that look at her like she is a feast for his very soul. One year of service to him is something she is more than willing to promise for freedom, especially when his wingtip ghosts over her body, causing her blood to seer beneath her skin.
But there is a problem.
The other rumor going around about his kind? It’s about the oversized weapon that swings from his hips, a weapon she is now expected to handle. But Nora is strong, and she has spent years twisting and breaking the stems of mushrooms she can’t get both hands around.
He’s about to find out just how strong she is.
