The world wants balance. Fire and water. Sound and silence. Those who can use magic, and those who can absorb it.
In the empire of Khesere, magic rules. Those who can control it hold all the power, until that power turns on them and consumes them from the inside out. That's where Safyia comes in.
She's an Inert. The opposite of magic, and the one thing that's sure to save a sorcerer's life before their power burns them into pieces. She's also been enslaved by the empire for the last three years.
Now, given to the empire's most elite group of sorcerers, Safiya expects the worst. She knows the horrific things agents of the emperor are capable of doing.
But they're nothing like she expects. Their hatred of the empire burns almost as bright as her own. And every day that passes, they feel less and less like enemies, and more like the thing Safiya has been wishing for.
But the eyes of the Emperor are never far away. The more magic Safiya consumes, the more he wants her for his own. Safiya and her lovers will fight with everything they have to stay together. Because if the Emperor takes her? He'll never let her go.
