The Nysein: Salvation — Beth Mikell

A wasting disease marks the Nysein race after King Darién seeks vengeance upon his mother's murderers. Every day he chokes on loneliness and past mistakes as another innocent victim dies. His only salvation lies in a whispered prophecy -- he must take a mate. The idea is so repulsive, he can't imagine ever fulfilling…mating with a half-human, half-vampire woman he has never met. But one look upon the half-breed's face and his rationality plummets.For scholarly beauty Jenera Cole, life moves in slow motion. It's another strike against her…another disappointment. She is unaware of her immortal destiny until fate traps her inside an otherworldly hell. However, a stranger appears within her supernatural prison. He is a man with seductive eyes and an incredible power. Destiny isn't only a word, it is the source of the Nysein magic, and Jenera must accept her fate. She must lay claim to the lost king as secrets bury them, lies unite them, and a war begins…
