Abracadabra

What was supposed to be a simple article about a magician's mysterious past turns into a deadly balance of fighting for her life and learning the truth of a bloody world hidden behind mirrors.

At first, Antony Devrue's flirty misdirection was typical of a magician hiding typical secrets. But then, Cadence Conway asks her questions at the wrong moment, and she is forced through the portals to experience a world fueled by the blood of its inhabitants. From this collision of poor timing and curiosity, Antony is desperate to keep Cadence and his life on Earth a secret from his home, but fails catastrophically. Now the two of them form a bridge burned long ago between two violent and warring civilizations, and it's too late to go back.
