Fall of the Arch Lich (D’Vaire, Book 6)

Months after his mate broke his heart, Lich Sentinel Alaric is doing his best to put the pieces back together. His sentinels now belong to the Council of Sorcery and Shifters, but it is of little comfort when the necromancers are determined to fight their freedom every step of the way. They are led by Arch Lich Chander Daray, the one person Alaric wishes to avoid at all costs. Despite Chander’s decision to end their matebond, Alaric cannot stomach the idea of signing their separation papers.

Arch Lich Chander Daray has never been more miserable. His mate is gone, and he believes he’s been betrayed in the worst way. Chander thinks he’s at rock bottom, but there is more pain to come. The elder council demands his title be revoked, and when they offer a petition signed by thousands of necromancers, Chander feels he has no choice but to resign.

With nothing but time on his hands, Chander pushes his magic to its limits. Alaric is not idle either and is determined to get the sentinels out of their prison. Though things between them are over, they soon find themselves face-to-face. There is love in Chander’s heart, but Alaric must be willing to forgive him the mistakes he’s made. Chander is ready, but for Alaric, it will require a leap of faith to trust Chander again. Will they decide to start fresh or simply walk away?
