When Pia Thompson went on a cruise, she never expected to end up a Zorya and married to a Dark One. When she met Alec, she though he was the one for her but in the end Pia is the Beloved to one man and one man only and that is Kristoff, Alec's friend. After finding out that she is meant to be with Kristoff, Pia returns home to her old life in Seattle. Kristoff isn't communicating telepathically with Pia anymore and she feels he's closed himself off to her. Since he's washed his hands of her, she decides to do the same.

But when people from the Brotherhood show up at Pia's door demanding that she come with them, Pia has had enough. She doesn't want to be a Zorya anymore and she lets that be known. The Brotherhood informs her of the steps she needs to take to give up her title. Without any other choice, Pia goes along with them so she can be done with all of this nonsense once and for all.

While negotiating with Dark Ones to free members of the Brotherhood, Pia runs into Kristoff being held captive for crimes he's accused of committing. The crimes are so outlandish and Pia knows they're not true but when they start accusing Pia also of a list full of crimes, things become scary. Will Pia be able to return to her life in Seattle or will she be forced into being a Zorya once again?
