Matia of Ruza is one of the legendary Battlemaids -- a woman warrior who has taken an oath of celibacy in service of the Maid of Light. When Kaska of Artane saves her from an ambush by a gang of brigands, Matia finds her oath tested by her handsome rescuer's erotic appeal. But Kaska means to do more than test Matia's faith. He worships the Dark One, and he wants to make Matia the centerpiece in a sizzling erotic ritual in honor of his god.
But first, he's got to defeat her in combat -- and win her heart.
Publisher's note: The Dark One was first released under the author's penname of Victoria Michaels.
