Possessed by the demon of Defeat, Strider cannot lose a challenge without suffering unimaginable pain. For him, nothing stands in the way of victory. Until Kaia, an enchanting Harpy who tempts him to the razor’s edge of surrender.

But as the competition heats up, only one prize will matter—the love neither had thought possible...
