Ven is a tool of the Sun, bred to work the dark magic of resurrection. Nearly a year ago his work ended in tragedy and he retreated behind a vow of silence. When he is called to duty again, a beautiful girl will die if he cannot shed the weight of his sins and turn lust into love.
Sesha is only half-human but she is human enough to know earthly pain. Ven's pain haunts her. Duty commits her to service but a need to know and heal commits her to the man. She will love him enough to save him from himself, even if it means her death in the end.
