Thousands of years ago, humans were prey to powerful races with wild magic until an agreement was reached. For many centuries, elves have been taking girls from the village of Luella to sit on the throne of the Queen of Humans. The villagers are convinced that this means death for the unfortunate chosen ones. Nineteen-year-old Luella, a herbalist and the only healer in the village, believes that this fate will pass her by, as she has no magical powers. However, for some reason, the elven king comes... specifically for Luella. Everything the girl has known about her life so far turns out to be a lie. In a strange world full of wild magic, she is forced to become the wife of the cold and withdrawn King of the Elves. Because the magical land is slowly dying, and salvation depends on the Queen. But the real test for Luella will be a passion she never wanted.
