Hai has always been an outsider. Here in Wyvern's Court, the avian and serpiente royal family keep their distance, refusing to acknowledge Hai's cobra bloodline.

They know that Hai's magic is so volatile, she can barely control it, and images of the past and future threaten to overwhelm her. When Hai's cousin, Oliza Shardae Cobriana, abdicates the throne of Wyvern's Court, Hai has visions only of destruction. Now Hai will do anything to protect her new home - even if it means betraying the very people who need her most.

And to prove once and for all that - highlights and high heels aside - those who make the rules are the only ones who can break them.
