Nyssa wants to be dominant. Eve needs her to submit.
Nyssa Deburio is a fairy that has everything she could ever need, but nothing she wants. She wants to be important, but her family doesn't give her a second thought. She wants to be an only child, but she’s the forgotten middle of seven. She wants to be loved, but nobody in her life has the love to spare.
Nobody except her attendant Eve, an enigmatic woman who offers to help with those woes. Nyssa used to think she wanted to be at the top, but Eve’s lessons show her how loved she can feel at the bottom.
However, Eve is not the saviour Nyssa thinks she is. The attendant is fae, an infiltrator who stole her real attendant’s visage. The lessons are preparations, grooming her for something sinister. Eve needs Nyssa to love her, it’s vital to the plan. She just wishes she hadn’t started to love Nyssa back.
