She finally snaps that she never really had the opportunity to develop those instincts because of how she was raised, and Nyktos stills. We're always happy to answer any questions or queries you might have, please get in touch using one of the methods below. Nyktos takes a look at her injury and tells her that it’s not a bad wound so she doesn’t need his blood and so there’s no worry of him taking advantage of her.

As in the From Blood and Ash series, there is quite a lot of smut, but contrary to the last 2 books of the FBAA series where it was just ridiculous at times how they couldn’t refrain from having sex in inappropriate moments, it’s not as bad in this book. He also adds that they need to sort out the whole matter with her power–he’s unsure if she will have that amount of power to wield after she goes through the Culling without the embers, but she could still be a strong Godling or God.She claims that he’s the one that’s committing misdeeds, and Nyktos tells her he’s curious how she’s going to rationalize this. Which is how it should be in eyes, especially if their love is depicted as this GRAND and EPIC story.

Good old miscommunication will do that, but after a while, it became repetitive, and Sera’s inner monologues about her feelings were always the same. She then realizes that while Delfai may be able to tell them how to remove the embers, that would mean that the deaths of Gods and Primals would happen the same way as it happened with Kolis, and she cannot have her life exchanged for others. Nyktos promised her that he will have her protected at all times, but hopes that the Fates find them worthy so that the feasts can begin. I’ve been a fan of the Blood and Ash series since the beginning and absolutely loved A Shadow in the Ember and all the story we’re getting in the Flesh and Fire series. Answer:Three years ago, she followed him to the temple where Sera was offered to him for the first time.Nektas also reveals that Nyktos understands her position and her actions, not that he has forgiven her, which is way easier than understanding and acceptance, but also mentions that he found Nyktos fully at peace when he found them together. I will say that roughly the second half of this book is more chaotic and things are just constantly happening – things are revealed and I loved every minute of it.

King Lamont, Sera’s father, did not know Eythos was the one who made a deal with his predecessor, so he spoke freely with Kolis, demanding another deal be made that freed his daughter from any obligations. He also agrees to take her into Lasania to visit her step-sister Ezra, and to visit the Pools of Divanash–she will go with Nektas.That’s when Nyktos realizes her plan, and when the shock hits him from what she was going to do, she uses that as her opportunity to get free of his grip.
