Summary
from Goodreads:
Open your eyes to darkness. What do you see? Does the darkness frighten you? Now imagine the darkness being the cargo hold of a slave ship. Your city has fallen. Your family is most likely dead. You don't know anyone around you, and some of them aren't even human. Giving up would be so easy to do, but not for Arowyn Mason. Not after being raised in a military family with seven brothers. Every great story should begin with a plan. Aro's was to escape and to survive.
Open your eyes to darkness. What do you see? Does the darkness frighten you? Now imagine the darkness being the cargo hold of a slave ship. Your city has fallen. Your family is most likely dead. You don't know anyone around you, and some of them aren't even human. Giving up would be so easy to do, but not for Arowyn Mason. Not after being raised in a military family with seven brothers. Every great story should begin with a plan. Aro's was to escape and to survive.
Escape comes, but at a price. As they reach the shore, Aro and the other survivors learn that freedom doesn't mean safety. The slavers want their property back and will do anything to get it. The party uses every ounce of their brute strength, a hearty helping of cunning, and even ancient magics to keep themselves alive. Sickness, danger, and even love surprise them at every turn. Dealing with danger becomes their way of life, but none of them ever considered that nothing can be quite as dangerous as a prophecy. Running turns into another race altogether as her world falls to pieces again and again.

Excerpt:
Her
eyes opened to darkness.
She
wasn't surprised. When bad things happened and you finally opened
your eyes it was always dark wasn't it? Because otherwise when you
woke up you wouldn't be scared, not right away, not until you
remembered. Yet in darkness nothing else could be seen but the
memories of what had happened, it didn't matter if you opened your
eyes or kept them squeezed closed.
What
happened…
She
closed her eyes again, not against the memories, but the sudden tears
and choking sobs. Still, she tried to not
remember,
but her head hurt. All of her hurt, but her head hurt the worst.
She'd been hit by something, very hard. She had no trouble
remembering the pain. She remembered falling to the ground, her
brothers screaming her name over the insane loudness of the fighting
and everything fading to nothing as darkness claimed her.
She
sucked in a deep breath. The fighting. Yes, the city had been
attacked. The walls had been breached. There had been fighting in the
streets. She had
been fighting. Her brothers had been trying to get her out. They had
been so close. Had they?
She
shifted and froze, terror creeping up her throat and choking her at
the same time until nothing but a strangled gurgle came out.
They
had not.
She
knew because she felt the cold metal shackles around each wrist, felt
the weight of the chain between them. The same fetters bound her
ankles. Dirty straw prickled her cheek and the other smells of her
surroundings overcame her. They overwhelmed her and made her gag. The
rank scents of piss, shit and vomit almost covered the stale reek of
sweat and the tang of salt.
Salt.
She'd
thought her head had just been spinning, but no, everything moved,
lurching and swaying. She was at sea.
At
sea in chains meant only one thing. The rumors had been true. The
Gelanians had allied with the Franuan Slavers. Beneath the combined
attack, Kingsport had fallen and the Frans had taken their cut,
citizens to sell as slaves. She was a slave.
Well
that sucks.
