Born into an unquestioned position of power as the prince of a wealthy trade family, Orexis lives without rules or regulation. However, this glamorous life is bittersweet for the prince, trapped within a loveless world of hidden faces and distant places. Painfully stoic as his people are, Orexis grows disconnected from them and equally as rebellious; seeking companionship from other races, taken as slaves under his tender and loving care. But the introduction of a new and deliciously defiant slave shatters the illusion of peace he's living, inevitably sparking the courage to nourish Orexis' s rebellious nature into something that will change his world - and the world around him - forever.
