Synopsis

Being new to slaying doesn't mean that Thess likes being infantilized, especially by an over-protective demon named Anya, who's controlling at every turn.

But concerning Cora Devonshire ― Thess's current crush ― is there any validity to Anya's suspicion?

As she and Cora get closer, Thessaly's flippancy and resentment might just get the best of her though, when she takes on a job from the Watcher's Council, and is pursued by some admittedly sexy stalkers...
