The Exile's Gift

Laurent and Sabre's story continues... All Laurent de Rue wants to do is live a peaceful life with his husband, Sabre, and support his little sister Rose's rise to stardom on the Starian stage. But learning the truth of his heritage, and rediscovering his magic, brings a whole new set of problems...most notably the Archmage of Mislia, who is determined to find the apostates who fled his wrath all those years ago. He's willing to use any means necessary to track down Laurent, and that includes cursing his own son and heir, Hektor Drakos, who fled Mislia with Prince Adrien and is now all alone in a city that bears no love for his kind. But Laurent soon discovers the dark-eyed mage and his clever fox demon is no threat...but a young man in need of healing and a place to hide from his terrifying, power-hungry father and his father's demon -- a faceless creature who can travel vast distances through mirrors. Despite the danger, Laurent's never been one to turn away someone in need of protection. As he and Sabre make a place for Hektor in their unconventional family, they're besieged by old enemies and new threats alike, and Laurent will have to harness the true strength of his magical gift to protect the people he loves.
