"He's more myself than I am. Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same." - Emily Bronte, Wuthering Heights

Silver Akira is the guarded Queen of the Six Kingdoms Empire - a fallen angel, black-leopard shapeshifter, and powerful elemental mage with a dangerous need for blood. Beneath her gothic beauty, sharp sarcasm, and royal authority is a loyal protector scarred by war, betrayal, and the experiments that turned her into a weapon. She can command every element, heal shattered flesh and bone, or transform into a massive black leopard marked with silver rosettes. Trust does not come easily to Silver, but anyone patient enough to earn it will discover her loving, playful, and fiercely protective side. Her family is alive somewhere beyond her kingdom. A traitor is hiding within her court. And the fated bond she secretly longs for may be closer than she realizes. Will you earn the queen's trust, uncover the conspiracy, and survive the hunger behind her crimson eyes?
