Michael still has secrets to uncover, but the biggest he has faced was finding out that he had a brother. When Michael questions why he was never told about his brother Jessiah more secrets come to light. Where was Jessiah last, and what is the connection with the mermaid who asked for their help? Michael sent Marcus one who is like a brother to him to investigate to help find answers from the Sirenian people. Michael still being new to his power, and his throne wants to make sure he can keep all of his people safe. If that means sending The Kings Blade to get it done, then that is what Michael will do. Michael knows that he must do what he can to find all the answers about his family, but he also knows his people must always come first. The question is, is, are his people not only in danger of the darkness that is to come or also the government he has agreed to help? For Michael, there was only one person to ask, and one person who works for those people. What Michael didn't know was if Jason has known all along, or was he clueless to what was happening to the supernatural community?
Marcus Sloane took on a mission from his brother and King Michael to find out what the mermaid spoke of on the day of the battle. He wasn't expecting to have the sexy Shannara Cane at his side, but he was glad for it. Who else could make a mission fun but a Succubus hell-bent on staying as far away from him as possible? Marcus knew what Shannara was to him even if she didn't, but he planned to use this mission to show her the true meaning of temptation. Since Michael came into power, he lifted the curse of never finding a soul mate for a Vampire. Shannara has always been and will forever be a Vampire's temptation, but he knew that he was hers as well. It didn't matter how she would run from it. He would always follow. Marcus will always complete my missions; rather, it be from his King or the love he has for a woman who doesn't truly know the meaning. He just had to show her that she didn't need to kill to feed and that he can handle anything she throws his way. Shannara (Na'na) Cane may be a Succubus, but she was his Kindred Soul, and not even she could keep them apart.
What other secrets will Marcus and Shannara find on their mission?
Would Marcus find out that he could be wrong and Shannara's hunger kill him after all?
How will Michael and Taria fight evil so different from what they have fought before?
Can Taria and Michael protect their children, or will she lose one to a promise?
