Four alien soldiers. One human survivor. Nothing about this is gentle. 🔥 The world ended in fire... And I woke up surrounded by monsters who claim me as theirs. They call themselves Dravari- Towering, battle-scarred predators built for war. Lethal. Disciplined. Terrifyingly beautiful. And somehow... I've become their obsession. Thalen, their commander, watches me like I already belong to him. Lyren, the medic, touches like he's trying to memorize my soul. Ryn, the mechanic, hunts for me like I'm something worth bleeding for. And Kael, the youngest, looks at me like I hung his stars. They call me their Circle Female. Their only. Their forever. But I'm still human. Still broken. And surviving this world might mean surrendering to creatures who were never meant to love me- or finding out I was never meant for Earth at all. 💀🔥 Love in the ashes. Desire among monsters. The end of the world never felt so forbidden.

A well-loved tale, retold. Set in a universe where our single-minded deity did not make the same choices as he did, and peace was achieved a little bit differently. Because, no matter the time, place, or universe, DH will always fall in love with FJ. Inspired by that final scene in the PB Outtake, where DH said, and I quote: "So even if we didn't know each other, as soon as I saw you, I would fall for you very quickly. No matter how many times it happens, it would still be the same."
