Two fathers, two countries and no place to call home.When your skin's the wrong color and eyes a hated shade of blue, life is one godsdamned battle after another.All that's kept me alive is the birthmark for which I was abandoned, the night of my birth.

He sees a different path for me-one wherein I embrace the mystical destiny my birthmark portends.Faced by this alarming possibility, I find myself asking: Can I kill those whose blood I may share? Or will this enigmatic mage, to whom I'm inexplicably drawn, convince me to set aside a life of honor for one of magic?… (more)
