Chitterl is half-spider, half-woman, and fully dedicated to conquering humanity. She knows her place. She knows where she belongs: in the darkness. Then her best (well, only) friend turns traitor and runs off with a pair of bisexual humans. She's forced to hunt him down, with the lives of her unhatched eggs on the line. Undercover in a den of humans, she meets two men. One is a sunlight-haired warrior who adores her, is determined to protect her, and shows off for her at every opportunity. The other, a sickly but brilliant transmasc mage, is is prickly, brooding, and suspicious of her every action... even as an undeniable passion draws them together. Oh, and they're a package deal. Will Chitterl complete her mission, destroying the traitor and his human lovers? Or will she find redemption?
