Ensnared

Two rival empires, forged in technology, are racing to hunt down every piece of the magic Recovery Scrolls. Once assembled, these ancient artifacts will point the way to any sorcerer alive, no matter where they're hiding. Notorious assassin Jason Chanz knows who their first target will be: Terra Cross, Elite Prophet and the only friend he has ever known. If either empire gets their hands on her, they will drug and torture her until she uses her gift to serve them. To save his friend from a life of perpetual torment, Jason must find her first-and avoid capture himself, for he is their next target. Isis really shouldn't have agreed to help Jason find Terra. It's only going to get them both killed-or, worse yet, captured and thrown into a Selpe prison. She just barely escaped her last incarceration, and she's not keen to repeat the experience any time soon. Nor does she have any intention of ending up once again at the mercy of the ruthless Selpe soldier determined to make her his. She already has enough problems with the tempting assassin leading them to their doom.
