Synopsis: Facing an unstable future, Chela Prizeon leaves Castle Hayne and crosses over to enemy territory in pursuit of Faris--the boy of royal blood who is cursed by a bitter rival. But soon Chela learns that he has been taken deep into the treacherous frozen prisons--a majestic, but deadly place where people enter and are never seen again. To find the boy she loves and his lost sister, Chela must join forces with one of her greatest enemies. And even though she pulls strength from the good in her powers, she finds herself drawn to the dark side's temptation as well.

Excerpt:
Faris
The
shackles tightened on my wrists and ankles, digging deep in my flesh.
Dark magic eased its way through to my skin. I sucked my breath and
held it, waiting for the fiery feeling to pass. Curse it. I could
hardly move, let alone think. A small band of light eased in through
the windows above me, giving the metal chamber a touch of softness.
"I
ask you again, Faris Toulan. Is this girl worth your life? Your
immortality? Or what's left of it anyway," Olivia hissed into my
ear, a sneer on her face. I stayed silent, refusing to give in. She
grasped my chin and forced me to look at her face.
I
glanced deep in her empty eyes, and said: "Yes. Chela is
everything to me. She’s all that you could never be. Your tricks
can't remove what I feel for her."
Dark
eyes glared at me. Her harsh laugh ripped through my soul. The
kindness she showed me earlier disappeared at once. I didn't care.
All I hoped for, all I ached for was a chance to see Chela again. I
promised to return as the protector she needed me to be. I refused to
go back as the thing she was cursed to destroy. That would only hurt
her more than I had already done. I intended to keep my word.
"I
do hope you understand what you've agreed to do," Olivia said in
a low, but deadly voice, her breath on my ear, her cold fingers
stroking my face. "By the time I’m done with you, there won't
be any other name you'll call except mine. Because that's how long
you'll beg for mercy."
She
moved closer to my face and kissed my lips. I wanted to gag. Inside,
I was already screaming. But her torture, or whatever she planned for
me, was nothing compared to facing a life without Chela. By thinking
of her face, her laugh, even the way she sometimes annoyed me, I
could handle anything Olivia did.
Hell
most definitely existed. I was about to experience it in full force.
And
then I heard Chela call my name…
Chela
In
my dream, I felt his suffering as if it were my own. Every burn, each
tingle, the agonizing way he screamed from inside that awful dark
chamber. Lying in my bed, I thought of the kiss we shared the last
time I saw him. My eyes flew open as I grasped at the air around me,
reaching for him, but finding emptiness instead. And then the tears
fell, and kept falling.
My
mind was shutting down one cell at a time. Even breathing took
effort. It was as if my lungs were a balloon, and his breath was
magical helium; something that only the luckiest girl could find…and
lose.
"Faris."
I called his name out loud, hoping with all my faith that he heard
me. Was it possible for us to connect even with so much distance
between us? I had to try. If he can hear me, then our link will pull
him through whatever they were doing to him.
I
can't just sit around and wait to hear news about his death. I had to
do something.
"Chela.
Can I come in?" My best friend, Alexa, stood in the doorway to
my room. I didn't even hear her open it. She walked over to the edge
of the bed and sat down. Her kind eyes filled me with warmth after so
many cold nightmares had left me shivering.
"Baby,
you've been in this room almost a week. Jalen and I miss you. Come
back to us." She stroked my hair and laced her fingers with
mine. Those small gestures were just enough to make me sit up and
bury my face in her shoulders. "You got snot on my school
uniform. Well, at least that's a start." I pulled back, glancing
at Alexa's face as she studied her shirt. Looking up at me, she
wrinkled her nose.
"Eew,
gross," we both said at the same time. And then we both burst
out laughing, covering our mouths as we giggled. She was right.
Smiling was a good start. And then I heard a boy's voice speak in my
mind.
"Chela,
I heard you. By the lights, I heard you," Faris
said.
