Skin Magic
As a new emperor ascends the throne, the city of the Rhodoi is about to run with blood.
Larissa has to escape. Her only way out is to accept a bargain made with Xander, a beautiful stranger who practises the mysterious spirit magic of the Sardisians.
She knows the deal could cost her a piece of her soul, but the magician's spirits want something else. Something she never expected. They want her body, her untouched flesh.
For Xander's own pleasure.
