I told Brigit my love would destroy her. Now she's on the brink of death.With my empire in ruins, our only chance at survival is to run. There's nothing I want more than to take back what's mine and restore order to the shattered remnants of my life.There's nothing I need more than Brigit.But choosing her means abandoning countless people I've promised to protect. Choosing her would make me a monster. And walking away would be the end of me.
