Broken, beaten-down, and plagued by nightmares, Amihanna di Aetes is surrounded by the Aunare race that makes up the other half of her heritage, but she feels alien amongst them. She\u2019s not sure which is worse: SpaceTech\u2019s overt hatred of Aunare or the Aunare\u2019s covert hatred of halfers. She hears their whispers whenever she enters a room and sees her death reflected in their eyes. Amihanna doesn\u2019t know who to trust anymore, but she hasn\u2019t survived this long by ignoring the warning signs all around her, especially when her instincts are screaming that a familiar choice is coming: flee or fight.<\/p>\n

Her parents assure her everything is okay\u2014that there won\u2019t be any reason for her to fight, let alone flee\u2014but with Amihanna\u2019s sudden return, questions arise among the Aunare: who should be blamed for the start of a full-scale war with SpaceTech, how much danger will the war bring, and is Amihanna truly fit to be the next high queen?<\/p>\n

Honestly, Amihanna wants to forget all the politics, her betrothal to Lorne, and the possibility of being queen. Her needs are much more basic. All she wants is a solid night\u2019s sleep where she doesn\u2019t wake up screaming with the phantom pain of her skin burning. All she needs is to live without fear of a mob tearing her away from her family. All she hopes for is a chance to dream of a future instead of constantly fighting for her right to live.<\/p>\n

And yet, somehow, everything she does leads her back to Lorne. He always seems to know when she\u2019s about to break under the pressures of her new life. His quiet patience is wearing Amihanna\u2019s protective walls down, and she\u2019s terrified of what will happen if they fall.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>
