Fulfilling Caspian's long sought dreams, Samantha has remembered all her past lives. Two lovers pulled apart for thousands of years have found a way to be reunited in euphoric bliss. Kaeda, a powerful adversary comes knocking, demanding that Caspian fulfill a long standing oath— to rise up as the chosen one and defeat an abomination that destroyed the dragon race nearly three thousand years ago.
Since Samantha has awakened her phoenix abilities, she manipulates others with no apparent boundaries. As Caspian commits himself and his armies to aid Kaeda in killing this genocidal abomination, Samantha's rivalry spikes. When Samantha manipulates Caspian to fulfill her own desires, she unknowingly puts in motion the beginning of the end of their passionate relationship.
Caspian must call upon his own exhausted resources, or what is left of them, to help him defeat the abomination. Meanwhile, Samantha's web of lies thickens and entraps the other followers. Enshin burns with self-hatred for what he has become. Although Dorian is loyal to Samantha, he's also always looking for the highest bidder. Morgan's loyalty is conflicted when she's forced to keep Samantha's secret. This single action not only drives a wedge between Morgan and Caspian, but also with Peter who becomes unstable.
To truly understand their enemy, they all travel to meet an informant, imprisoned by a cruel king and his militia of werepanthers. When Samantha is given a self-reflective look at what she has become, she is mortified. Realizing she is more evil than even Kaeda, Samantha distances herself from Caspian at a pivotal moment when he needs her the most. During the greatest battle of their time, Samantha has a vital decision to make that impacts the lives of those she loves. When the climax of the battle unfolds, the full resurgence of Caspian's prophecy comes to glorious fruition. His enemies become allies and his once trusted companions betray him in unforgivable ways.
