Most would say the "sweet" and "quiet" Signorina Arabella Belmonte has lived a quiet life as a young noblewoman in her family's castello. But little do they know she pens treatises criticizing the realm's warmongers . . . and now there's a price on her head. As she struggles to hide her seditious activities, a chance encounter with a unicorn leaves her with four hooves and a horn of her own—and a form she can't control. The dark-elf queen has offered her a chance to acquire that control . . . if Bella can find the unicorn who turned her.
Prince Dhuro of Nightbloom has never met a problem he couldn't solve with his fists—that is, until he fought his sister for a place in the army's elite forces and lost. When the light-elves defeated them and his father was executed, Dhuro's inner demons laid claim to the whole of him. Now Immortal beasts are growing in power and threatening his people.
Dhuro has a chance to help his people win, but his mother, the queen, sends him on a fool's errand instead—helping a human newly turned unicorn find her sire, and asking the impossible: whether the Elder of the pacifistic unicorns will stand with them against the beasts ravaging his people.
Contains mature themes.
