Lila Winters, a mortal with no divine power, married Kane, the heir to the Goddess of Order's might, simply because of an old promise. For three years, she was the lowest in the temple: scorned by all, treated as a burden by her husband, and constantly overshadowed by Serine, the gifted adopted sister who always stood at Kane's side.
When Serine's schemes and Kane's silent complicity push Lila to the breaking point, she leaps into the World Rift that connects to the human realm. Everyone knows that without a godly bloodline, she will be reduced to ashes.
But deep in the rift, something ancient stirs. A bloodline that would make even the gods kneel awakens within her. Instead of returning to the temple, she vanishes into the mortal world, choosing to live as an ordinary human. For the first time, Kane tastes regret.
He exhausts his divine powers, scours every realm, yet cannot find a woman who simply does not want to be found. Until, on a demon-slaying battlefield, he finds her calmly saving the very lives he failed to protect. This time, the almighty god must learn to humble himself and beg her to come home.
