Elian Valemor has spent his life mastering control—of his emotions, his words, and the dangerous games played in the shadows of Morrithar’s noble houses. But when he learns that his own family plans to kidnap the one person he swore to keep at a distance, control is no longer an option. Desperate and reckless, he seeks them out in the dead of night, breaking every rule to warn them.

Their families are rivals. Their connection is forbidden. And now, the only way to keep them safe... is to run.
