"My name is 625. At least, that's the number branded into my skin, the only identity I have. My real name, whatever it was, was stripped from me when I was sold into slavery at age eight. I am now 20, and no more than property, my only purpose working in the palace. Until the day I meet him." The Elves and Humans have been at war for millennia.

A captured Elf, sworn enemy of the Human people, forced into making Elven weaponry to fight against his own kin. Will they see past the differences between their races and help each other to survive? Or will their union only serve to stoke the fires of hatred? This book is intended for audiences 18+ and contains some scenes of violence that some may find distressing.
