The Hematoi descend from the
union of Gods and mortals. Children of two pure-blood Hematoi possess god-like
powers and are like the royalty of their community. Children of a pure-blood
and a mortal – not so much. They have two choices in life: become a slave in
the households of pure bloods, or train to become a Sentinel and protect their
community.

Aiden has taken responsibility for Alex’s training and Alex is determined to
prove that she’s got what it takes to become a Sentinel. Her journey isn’t
helped by both others’ wish that she fail and her forbidden attraction to
pure-blood Aiden …
