The explosive conclusion to Stacey O’Neale’s award-winning Mortal Enchantment series reveals the secrets of the fantasy world!
Valac has stolen two of the sacred objects. In a bid to rule all four courts, he has threatened to use Excalibur to cut the mist that protects Avalon—ultimately ending the lives of thousands of elementals. As the Akasha, Kalin has the power to stop him. And she refuses to lose anyone else she loves.
Will she have to sacrifice herself to save them?
Desperate to save Kalin’s life, Rowan searches for the long-lost creator of the mist. But what he finds is the very last thing he expected. Everything he thought he knew about his past is turned upside down, and he questions whether he’s meant to be the savior or the elemental that destroys them all.
Told from Kalin, Rowan, and Marcus’s perspective, the final installment to the series follows their journey of courage, duty, sacrifice, and love.
Excerpt:
Kalin had to sacrifice herself?
Pain seared my chest, burning its way into my heart. I watched her mouth as she continued to speak. Words I didn’t hear. The only sound in my ears were my own heavy breath. I wasn’t sure how long we sat motionless. Each one of us waited for the other to react. Frozen in a circle of marble chairs, we were seemingly unable to comprehend what Kalin had said. I met eyes with Britta, then Orion. I wanted desperately for one of them to say there was another solution. That this wasn’t the only way. It couldn’t be. Not after everything we’d been through. Everything we’d lost.
I couldn’t lose her too.
It had been eighteen months since I first saw her. I’d been sent to kill her by my own mother. She was supposed to be a danger to us all. Yet she seemed so fragile. More mortal than elemental. Untrained in her element and naive of the world that waited for her. There was no way I could end her life. I decided soon after that she needed to be protected. That I’d keep her safe. If I was being honest with myself, I’d admit my feelings for her started then. And now, I couldn’t imagine my life without her. I loved her. How was I supposed to stand by and be okay with her decision?
I wouldn’t.
