Adrian Elias and Sage Tamir have been brought together by destiny as soul mates and they aren't taking that exceptional gift for granted. However, before they can get accustomed to their new life together, they find themselves in trouble and inconvenienced by the powerful council of mages known as the Echelon Imperial. After being called to a mandatory meeting, they are given an ultimatum that could be deadly if they don't choose wisely. If that isn't enough, the vampire Archduke of Chicago, Salino Laurent, calls in the favor owed him for saving Sage's life. But when Adrian and Sage hear about what he wants, the two mages wonder if it's even possible and, if so, is it worth the risk? More importantly, will they survive? On top of that, Adrian gets a time-sensitive case, and this one he knows he can't do alone. It is magic deeply rooted in darkness; he will need Sage. But if they fail, then a young boy may not get the chance to see his next birthday. For anyone else, these would be extraordinary circumstances, but for Adrian and Sage, it is starting to feel like a Monday. With everything coming at them from all directions, they will need to be able to trust each other and what they share more than ever before.
