Summary
Violet should already be dead. People whispered about her weak body and how she would never live up to her family's martial accomplishments. Violet rose above them all, however, fighting and killing to survive the Navarrian Intelligence Agency's brutal BASGIATH training protocol. Now, people whisper about Violet's swift ascension through the NIA's ranks as one of its most valuable operatives and assassins. The whispers don't matter to Violet: She has her own agenda, and it's a dangerous one - finding out what happened to her father.
But one mission changes everything: Suddenly, Violet finds herself in the crosshairs when she stumbles on information Navarre wants buried, and the country she fought for begins to turn on her. Violet knows too much, but she's determined to do what she does best: Survive. Her only hope is the son of the man who they say killed her brother, but their partnership is far from assured. Some grudges run deep, and trust is a currency too valuable to give freely. Xaden realizes Violet may be the key to everything, but with enemies seen and unseen closing in on all sides, the consequences of failure are deadly.

Summary
It had meant something worse.
It had meant the worst possible thing a woman could be in war.
The three of you all owe me, she whispers to the congregation of dragons that are a constant witness to her own thoughts. Her hands are trembling as she disposes of the draught into the trampled grass; she’s light headed, and fairly convinced she’ll shortly throw her guts up. Or pass out. Or both. None of us can tell Xaden.

Summary
Violet has never been to this forest before, nor has she ever played such a sexual game of hide and seek, but there's a first time for everything and she didn't survive Basgiath without learning a few tricks.
If Xaden wants to catch her, fine. But she sure as hell won't make it easy for him.

Xaden is a simp, and Liam and Garrick think its hilarious. There is nothing slow about this burn.

My trajectory is Catriona, my path is laced with curling shadows, and my fuel is wrath.
