She had been confident in her magic, but… well, maybe she wasn’t sure after all. Was she really cut out to protect the city?
Even with her team, maybe that was a bit too much. Was there a better option than to fight till death?
Lia wasn’t expecting to meet another magician in the city, not to mention someone with… a different kind of magic. Adrian offered her help, but what was he about?

I’m Val Thorvald, and I kill bad guys for a living.

My half-elven blood, magical sword, and telepathic tiger give me an edge, at least against most villains. But when dragons show up in Seattle, the city is in serious trouble—and so am I. Dragons are bigger, stronger, and more powerful than anything I’ve battled, and they don’t appreciate it when you sass them.

Just ask Lord Zavryd’nokquetal. That’s a name, not a cat hacking up a hairball, and if you mispronounce it, he’ll either insult you, incinerate you, or throw your Jeep up in a tree. Trust me, I know.

Unfortunately, he’s taken an interest in me. He’s on a mission, and he’s decided I’ll make the perfect bait to lure his enemies to him.

If I can’t figure out how to get him to leave me alone, I’ll either end up his servant for the rest of my life… or dead. And who’s going to protect Seattle then?
