Protecting a gifted five-year-old who is half human and half god, and with the destiny to someday save the world, is, admittedly, not an easy feat. Garrett Swopes was a convinced skeptic until he met a certain ugly woman and her husband. Having barely averted disaster, the couple disappeared, leaving Garrett, a mere mortal, to protect their gift to humanity. But the mentioned gift also manages to disappear, and Garrett is forced to ask a freak of a slightly different kind for help. The one who can see through space and time. And the very one who once betrayed him. Let her receive a truce for the duration of the deal, but she will never deserve forgiveness. The birth of Marika Dubois’s son, a warrior in the upcoming war between heaven and hell, was foreseen long before his birth. In order for the child to have the strength to survive the trials destined for him, Marika needed an heir to powerful magic. And she found it in Garrett Swopes. There was only one small thing left - to conceive a child from him. The undertaking was accomplished only by cunning, which Garrett, of course, will never forgive. However, years later, he himself knocks on Marika’s door asking for help, and the former traitor sees in him an ardent passion, which he desperately denies. Now Marika must decide whether to risk her own heart again for the love of her life.
