Scold’s Cession , Worship Series Book Six
 
PRISON AND DEATH
Io has been reminded how perilous life is. As the house becomes dangerous; nearly deadly, her every instinct is to run, but Xavier will tighten his hold on her. She may now be a prisoner in a place filled with people who would have her gone or dead so they can replace her as both wife and mistress.
 
Restraint and Mortality
Xavier can hardly hold back from drawing his sword to end those who stand against his wife. If it was anyone but his own mother… But as incident after incident comes closer and closer to taking Io’s life, he knows he must act before she is lost to him, and he is lost to hell for the defeat.
