My entire life, I’d dreamed of asking Nyaxia for this very gift—but never did I think it would be under these circumstances. I said, “My Mother, I ask you for a Coriatis bond. Please.” My voice cracked over my plea. A Coriatis bond. The god-given gift I’d once thought would give me the power I needed to be Vincent’s true daughter. Now, I was giving up my father’s greatest weapon to bind myself to the man I’d once thought was my greatest enemy. To save his life. Love, over power.
