An Empress of Earth & Darkness by Noelle Rayne

An Empress of Earth & Darkness by Noelle Rayne

Under the light of the approaching Wolf Moon, Emara Clearwater finds herself torn between her duty as an Empress and the truth that lies in her heart. With no Supreme emerging between the Elemental Covens yet, Emara must take the reins to fight for what she believes in-paving the way for women in a new world. But the darkness in her powers is building and the secret of her bloodline hangs in the balance. Will Viktir Blacksteel be the one to bring down Emara's new world all around her? Or will she succumb to the name that haunts her, Balan, King of the Underworld?

Being a guard to the Empress of Earth is becoming more difficult as forbidden feelings grow, but they are not the only thing on Gideon Blacksteel's mind. He finds himself in the middle of a Blacksteel civil war between his brother and father in the inevitable fight for dominance. When given the choice, whose side will he stand on?

Torin Blacksteel's hope for a future of his own choosing was ripped out from under him in the blink of an eye. Struggling to find his way, he turns to darker hobbies and dangerous interests. But his new lifestyle doesn't align with what his heart truly wants. Will he step up from his shattered reality and fight for Emara, or will he be too late? As long as his father is commander, will he have a choice?

Breighly Baxgroll is in deeper than she thought. Trying to find her place in the kingdom with witches, her protective pack, and a certain inked Warrior of Thorin, she quickly finds herself overwhelmed. But as the demons of her past swarm around in her head, mixing up her emotions, she will need to hold on to her fierce tongue before she ruins special relationships forever. And with the Wolf Moon-also known as the mating moon to wolves-in the sky, she finds herself in another predicament.

In a race against time to find the stones of the Gods before the Dark Army, the Blacksteel Clan must work together-regardless of their feelings-to figure out where they are. With Kellen Blacksteel's visions getting stronger, will he be able to keep them a secret, or will he expose himself in the process?

It seems darkness is written in the stars of destiny, and Kellen's visions spell suffering for Emara and the clan. By the time the Wolf Moon reaches her fullest peak, the earth will be soaked in hunters' blood, and there isn't much the Empress of Air can do to fix the impending tragedy.

Or is there...?
