The Creator of all immortals has left his lair. His reason for paying a visit to Veil Rock is just... the need to know if Everly Shade is indeed the one creation that was never meant to be born. Knowing that she could ruin everything he has ever created, he must see to it that she is dealt with before the Hunter's Moon. Everly can no more prepare for the warlock's arrival than if she was going to Hell itself. Still in possession of the grimoire, she searches through powerful spells she hopes will keep her alive long enough to save the ones she loves.As her power to wield magic intensifies, she can no longer hide in the shadows. When the White Ones come for her, the only protection from their mental assaults is her own power. They don't fight fair, the fight for what's theirs. But, Everly belongs to no one.Through her growing strength, Everly refuses to let murder, blood lust, or ancient magic keep her from what's rightfully hers, the freedom to live.
