Opis

The road to ruin is often paved with good intentions... Memphis Halsin is on a man on a reckless self-destructive quest to lure the last Horseman of the Apocalypse, Karanthos of Plague, into a winner-take-all fight. Unfortunately for Memphis, his bold moves have actually cost someone else very dear to him, their life. Not to mention, they nearly cost him his own as well if not for the one woman who swore to never have anything to do with him; Callie of the Griffins. Back to square one, Memphis has little choice but to trust Callie and take an entirely different approach, something that make just break this devil may- care Halsin. Time may heal all wounds but it does little to help the heart... Callie of the Griffins was once just as reckless as Memphis but she too has paid a high price for her actions. Swearing to never return to those ways, she buries her past and becomes the tranquil Rare that everyone knows her to be today. Though since Memphis arrived on Terriana, the home of the Animalia, she has been far from tranquil as she recognizes him immediately as her mate. Callie fought the call for years but after Memphis has a near brush with death, Callie knows she has lost that battle and accepts her fate, though there is she still believes there is no hope for them with the Horseman of Apocalypse still looming over them. The final battle is upon us, who will win? Memphis knows that he must fight for a lot of things; his family, his people and most importantly his mate. Though for the first time in his life, Memphis must believe in an ancient prophecy that he has always scorned. The prophecy that has declared him to be 'The Last Defender', the only being able to stand on the very edge of disaster and hold back the tide. In order to do this he must journey around the world, fighting not only his own fears and self-doubts but the very real minions of the last Horseman of the Apocalypse that are out to kill him and those Memphis holds dear. After all, Memphis isn't the only out for revenge, Karanthos is too and this is one battle that may be too close to call.
