Uncertain Fate

Do not fall for the man sent to destroy you... I should've listened to myself the first time.

Knight knew exactly who my father was the whole time we were together. He came to Splendor with one goal: bring down Melchior O'Neil, and he didn't much care whose heart got broken along the way. Turns out mine was the price.

For one horrible second, he actually believed I was in on it. That I was my father's soldier instead of his victim.

We're not together anymore. That much is clear. What's not clear is how I'm supposed to keep fighting beside a man who looked at me like a stranger, like a suspect, like someone he never really knew at all.

But my father's illegal potion trade is spreading across every town on the map, and Knight and I are the only two people who can stop it. So here we are, riding in silence, exes with a mission, pretending the space between us doesn't ache every single time our eyes meet.

I don't know if we're over. I don't know if there's a version of us that survives what he did, what I did, what my father is. All I know is that the fight isn't finished, and neither, apparently, is whatever this is between me and Knight Vander.

Some fates you choose. Some choose you first, and dare you to fight your way back.

Uncertain Fate is Book Five in the Knight's Fae series, where love doesn't die easy, even when trust does.
