Gods of Mist and Mayhem, Tome 2 : Captured

Résumé

Jade Blakely has managed to keep her and her best friend alive in a strange realm thus far, but with no idea what the Dust Emperor intends, things are looking bleak. The God of Command is sexy, but he’s also the devil incarnate, and even though Jade’s body reacts to his touches, all she can think about is how to escape and get her and Amelia safely back to their world.

Then the Emperor offers her a deal. Break into the abandoned house of a long deceased god and steal something for him in exchange for her freedom. If Jade agrees, she and Amelia will be allowed to go home. If she refuses, Amelia will pay the price in blood.

Forced to agree, Jade travels across the Celestial Empire with Koya as her guide and watcher. Koya is loyal to the Emperor, and during the day he’s abrasive and almost childish with his remarks, but at night he seems different. Under the cover of darkness Koya changes, becoming skilled with his tongue and more forward with his hands.

Can Jade figure out what’s going on with him and steal the item for the Emperor, or is she destined to die at the hands of the gods?
