Overview

Three summers ago, Myrine arrived on Patmos as a Leopard trainee. After initiated into the elite unit of Amazzi warriors, she becomes a Leopard Captain committed to training new recruits. Returning to Apasas wasn't on her agenda but after being ordered home Myrine is determined to complete the mission and return to Patmos. From the moment Myrine steps from the boat she's faced with undeniable changes. Committed to her assignment, she avoids her feelings, but when she sees Kynna again, buried passion erupts, testing her vow to protect her people and herself. Content with her found family, Kynna awaits the birth of her child. But as the intrusion of the Mycenes intensifies and threatens the safety of the Amazzi, Kynna sends word to Myrine begging her to come home. Kynna accepts that Myrine has ignored her, but when Myrine finally comes home she is distant, angry and not alone. Kynna tries to accept that friendship is all she can expect, focusing on her studies as a priestess of the Goddess Rhea. When the city erupts and the Mycenes bolster their control over Apasas, Kynna makes a decision that will change everyone's future.
