He's working his way through school at the Premier Escort Agency.

He's been at the Agency for years now, and he's handled all sorts of clients, but Karli is special.

He's been at the Agency for years now, and he's handled all sorts of clients, but Karli is special. She's past the legal age of consent on Haivran, but she is still very young, a school girl, in fact, innocent and naïve. Jared isn't quite comfortable with this. And he begins to realize that not all of the people around her have her best interests at heart; some of them, in fact, look like predators, and he needs to act decisively to protect this child, who already has a bit of his heart.
This is a novella, one of several prequels to The Misborn, to be released in the near future. The story is suggestive rather than explicit.
