(The first book in the Obsidian Order series)
A novel by Emma Luna
At Shadowmere University, power is everything—and weakness is fatal.
Lawson Radley is a Crow Pledge of the Obsidian Order, the secret society that rules the world from the shadows. He’s ruthless, focused, and destined for greatness—until she unravels him.
Harper Westmore was supposed to marry his rival. She’s remained pure and innocent to be the perfect Order Wife. But when her family’s fall from grace shatters her status, Lawson sees an opportunity—and he takes it.
She can be his. His Prize. His obsession.
If she agrees to submit.
If she offers herself willingly.
If she trusts the one man who could destroy her.
But love was never supposed to be part of the game. And the deeper they fall, the closer they come to losing everything.
