To say Oli isn’t happy is an understatement. Vivian is in charge and he begins her first day with things to evaluate where her fitness level is. Then there’s Tactical Training, Gabe is in that class and Gryphon is an instructor but pretty much ignores her. Nox’s class is going to be bad as he lets it be known she’s worthless and he doesn’t expect her to pass. Sage’s bond Riley prefers his other bonded Giovanna and makes sure everyone knows it. Plus the fact that North and Nox rule the campus, although Gabe has quite the following as well.

She’s been ostracized by the rest of the students for rejecting and running from her bonds. Her bond, Gabe is assigned to most of her classes and escorts her to breakfast daily. The man is clueless as to the way things work outside of his world. The surprise and annoyance that she dropped out of high school, exhibited by North, actually made me giggle. Next up is her enrollment at Draven University and her dorm assignment. Gryphon and Gabriel want to know why and are really pissed off, Nox is disgusted and thinks he’s owed something, and North, well he’s just an arse. He is the one who will set all the rules for her. North is a councilman and is responsible for the GPS tracker. From the start I don’t like either of the brothers. Gryphon, Gabriel and the brothers North and Nox. She’s buried her own gift deep inside as well as the ever present bond.Īfter being taken to clean up some, four of her bonds arrive.

An unusual thing about the file is that none of their gifts are listed. The five men she’s destined to spend her life with. There she’s implanted with a GPS tracker and given a file on her bonds.

We jump to the present and discover that Oleander has been running from her bonds and has been taken by a Tactical Response Team and brought to an interrogation room. In the prologue we learn of Oleander’s parent’s death and her subsequent power surge, we don’t know what that power is or the immediate aftermath.
