Rhys nodded, dread coursing through him. His thoughts went

back to what he and Noah had been discussing earlier. What if the

demons had come up with the unlikeliest plan of all? What if they had

attacked the one person Rhys had always seen as invulnerable? What

would happen if the near-omniscient Sidhe king fell?

As the helicopter started maneuvers to turn around, Rhys held on

to Noah’s hand tightly and placed his other palm on his abdomen.

Oddly enough, his fear began to vanish. Even if they were basically

heading into the unknown, Rhys and Noah were together. As long as

they held on to their bond, no one could beat them. After all, that

connection had defeated death and had created life. Nothing, not even

an entire demon army, could now stand in Rhys and Noah’s way.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

A native Romanian, Scarlet was born in 1986 and grew up an avid

fan of Karl May and Jules Verne, reading fantasy stories and

adventure. Later, when she was out of fantasy stories to read, she

delved into her mother’s collection of books and, of course, stumbled

onto romance.

As a writer though, Scarlet Hyacinth was born one sunny summer

day, when a dear friend of hers—the same friend who introduced her

to GLBT fiction—proposed they start writing a story of their own. As

it turns out, the two friends never did finish that particular story, but

Scarlet discovered she had a knack for writing and ended up starting

to write individually. And so, between working on her dissertation,

studying for exams, and reading yaoi manga, she started writing the

Kaldor Saga. Along the way, Scarlet met a lot of wonderful people

who supported her, and in the end, she found her story a home and, in

the process, fulfilled a beautiful dream.
