A healer who served in a combat unit for cleansing, I’m used to being ready for any trouble. But it turns out: even unflappable Helyena Goreyskaya can be thrown off balance. First it happened to a foreign prince, and then—mighty emissaries of the Darkness.
They say you don’t refuse offers from the utter depths. Especially when along with them they force on you a partner—charming and endlessly sarcastic. He unsettles the soul, robs me of peace, and I’m not allowed to fall in love!
The most sensible thing is to refuse the dangerous mission, but… the world is about to slip into the abyss, and even the king assures me that without me, they won’t manage.
To agree and step in—or still try to protect my heart from new trials? It turns out, contrary to rumors, mine is not cold at all.
