Synopsis

The King of Garrick wants to kill her. The King of Allel wants to love her. And shapeshifters stole her baby's soul! In a world where natural-born offspring are essential to the ruling dynasties, Mallory of Settlement 20 was blessed with fertility by the goddess Asherah and destined to become a pampered and protected chalice.. Born to poverty and hunger, Mal now lives in Red City. She's trained to detach from the world so she can serve humanity, but her firebird totem lands her in a power struggle between the city-states of Allel and Garrick. Soon Mal's feelings for one king threaten everything she's worked for, shatter her fundamental beliefs, and reveal her true destiny.
