Water Witch (Elemental Magic, #1)
Thea Atkinson
ALAYSHA is a unique witch reared to be the tool of Sarum's Emir--who just happens to be her own father--to conquer and plunder lesser tribes, bringing them into the city as chattel for its citizens to own and exploit in their own turn. Lately, though, he has used her to destroy entire villages, taking no captives and preserving no lives. The jaded young witch begins to question her megalomaniac father and his purpose despite the years of teaching she has received from him that the enemy is nothing but a target to destroy.
Ostracized by her own people as a dangerous tool her father controls and uses at whim, and trained by him to love no one lest she become too compassionate to do her duty, she soon finds herself embroiled in a battle of wills and violence that forces her to see things differently. The one charismatic youth who manages to escape her deadly power in her latest annihilation urges her to question her heritage, sending Alaysha into the darkest depths of her own memory for answers, and into a battle to save those she comes to love from certain death.
See if discovering that ability to love has only taken Alaysha into deeper waters of power and manipulation.
