His insane brother Edward, the King, delights in making him pay for his efforts. Long years of watching his back, fighting wars, and solving conflicts started by his cruel brother have taken a toll on Linden's body and mind, and he needs a respite. When Linden meets an alluring young bed slave named Alasdaire, his weary heart responds. Alasdaire is an exotic mix of southern royal Totandian elf and human, and, although he's also suffered hardship most of his life, his loving personality captivates the Prince. Despite their differences, Alasdaire--canes, and Linden--scales, unite in body and soul, but their romance is nearly shattered by betrayal. When Linden becomes King, magical assassins, treachery, and threats plague them. They narrowly escape death more than once. The lovers must discover who wants them dead and more importantly, where they can turn for aid. Neither enemies nor allies are what they seem. Only time will tell who means to harm Linden and Alasdaire--the elves, the imprisoned Edward, or something even deadlier--and time is one thing they don't have.This novel was previously published as a novella by Dreamspinner Press.
