The secrets hidden from her will unfold before her eyes, no one can escape the truth. ~~~ The book excerpt: "Here, I have a key to your heart," I left the key in my palm, metal, and skin together. I stumbled upon the ancient artwork in the locker rooms. It caught my attention because it resembles a dagger, so I took it and waited for the perfect opportunity. "Silly girl, that is not the key to my heart. Pathetic attempt." Vladimir growls in disgust. If I'm lucky, I'll be free by the end of the night. Taking the first step toward my destruction, I grin and move my hips in time with the slow music in the background. Vladimir swallows, his Adam's apple bobbles in his throat. The vampire's eyes focus on the crook of my neck as I stop directly in front of him. I place my palm on his chest, guide my fingertips down to his abdominal muscles, a corner of my lip twitches in disgust. When he closes his eyes, I take the opportunity to plunge the key directly into his heart, smiling as his eyes shoot open and he looks down at me in horror. "Are you still convinced I don't have the key to your heart?" I ask, grab him by the collar, and pull him closer. My lips nearly touch his ear as I whisper, "It fits."

Lily Forte has known her mate since she was born. The Fae Prince, Aolis, realized she was his mate while she was in utero. He has waited patiently for Lily to grow up and reach her 18th birthday so she and her wolf will recognize him as her mate. However, when Lily turns 18, even though she feels the mate bond, she doesn't respond to it, asking Aolis for time. He has always been like a brother, like the other sons of the Guardians. Now, she's supposed to feel differently for Aolis because her wolf says he's her mate? Not only that, but she has never dated another man. She has no idea what it is like to be kissed by someone.

If not, he will find another mate and take over as King. Lily, not realizing the severity of Aolis's ultimatum, doesn't arrive in Araphrya, Aolis's home, until after his deadline. When she does, she realizes he has already left to find his mate. Lily rushes to find him and interrupts his wedding.
