Résumé traduit en VF L'amour est-il plus fort que la vengeance ? Tout ce en quoi Poppy a toujours cru est un mensonge, y compris l'homme dont elle en est tombée amoureuse. Poussée par ceux qui la voient comme le symbole d'un royaume monstrueux, elle sait à peine qui elle est sans le voile de la Vierge. Mais ce qu'elle sait, c'est que rien n'est aussi dangereux pour elle que lui. Le Ténébreux. Le Prince d'Atlantia. Il veut qu'elle le combatte, et c'est un ordre auquel elle est plus qu'heureuse d'obéir. Il l'a peut-être prise, mais il ne l'aura jamais. Casteel Da'Neer est connu sous plusieurs noms et avec plusieurs visages. Ses mensonges sont aussi séduisants que son toucher. Ses vérités sont aussi sensuelles que sa morsure. Poppy sait qu'il ne faut pas lui faire confiance. Il a besoin d'elle vivante, saine et entière pour atteindre ses objectifs. Mais il est le seul moyen pour elle d'obtenir ce qu'elle veut : trouver son frère Ian et voir par elle-même s'il est devenu un Ascensionné sans âme. Travailler avec Casteel plutôt que contre lui présente ses propres risques. Il la tente encore à chaque instant, en lui offrant tout ce qu'elle a toujours voulu. Casteel a des projets pour elle. Des plans qui pourraient l'exposer à un plaisir inimaginable et à une douleur insondable. Des plans qui l'obligeront à regarder au-delà de tout ce qu'elle croyait savoir sur elle-même, sur lui. Des plans qui pourraient lier leur vie d'une manière inattendue à laquelle aucun des deux royaumes n'est préparé. Et elle est bien trop téméraire, trop affamée, pour résister à la tentation. Mais l'agitation s'est amplifiée à Atlantia alors qu'ils attendent le retour de leur Prince. Les murmures de guerre sont devenus plus forts, et Poppy est au cœur de tout cela. Le Roi veut l'utiliser pour envoyer un message. Les Descenters veulent sa mort. Les loups sont de plus en plus imprévisibles. Et alors que ses capacités à ressentir la douleur et l'émotion commencent à croître et à se renforcer, les Atlantes commencent à la craindre. De sombres secrets sont en jeu, ceux qui sont imprégnés des péchés sanglants de deux royaumes qui feraient tout pour garder la vérité cachée. Mais quand la terre commence à trembler, et que les cieux se mettent à saigner, il est peut-être déjà trop tard.

As in get married?
To him?
Suddenly, I thought of all those girlish fantasies I'd had before I learned who I was and what was expected of me-daydreams given life because of the love my parents had for one another.
Never once did those little-girl dreams include a proposal that wasn't remotely an actual proposal. Nor did they incorporate it being announced at a table full of strangers, half of which wanted me dead. And those dreams surely hadn't involved what had to be the kingdom's worst-and possibly most insane-non-proposal of marriage to a man currently holding me captive.
Perhaps I had some sort of ailment of the brain. Maybe I was experiencing hallucinations brought on by stress. After all, there had been so much painful death to process. His betrayal to deal with. And I'd just learned I was descended from Atlantia, a kingdom I'd been raised to believe was the source of all the evil and tragedy in the land. Stress-induced hallucinations seemed a far more believable reason than what was actually happening.
All I could do was stare at the larger hand holding my much smaller one. His skin was slightly darker than mine as if kissed by the sun. Years of wielding a sword with deadly, graceful precision had left his palms callused.
He lifted my hand to an indecently well-formed and full mouth. To lips that were somehow soft yet unrelentingly firm. Lips that had spun beautiful words into the air and whispered heated, wicked promises against my bare skin. Lips that had paid homage to the many scars that riddled my body and face.
Lips that had also spoken blood-soaked lies.
Now, that mouth was pressed against the top of my hand in a gesture that I would've cherished for an eternity and thought exquisitely tender just days or weeks ago. Simple things like hand-holding or chaste kisses had been forbidden to me. As were being wanted or feeling desire. I had long since accepted that I would never experience those things.
Until him.
I lifted my gaze from our joined hands, from that mouth that was already curving up on one side, hinting at a dimple in the right cheek, and from the slowly parting lips that revealed just a hint of fatally sharp fangs.
His hair brushed the nape of his neck and toppled over his forehead, and the thick strands were such a deep shade of black, it often shone blue in the sunlight. With high and angular cheekbones, a straight nose, and a proud, carved jaw, he often reminded me of the large, graceful cave cat I had seen once in Queen Ileana's palace as a child. Beautiful, but in the way all wild, dangerous predators were. My heart stammered as my eyes locked onto his, orbs a shade of stunning, cool amber.
I knew I was staring at Hawke -
