Earth is no longer ruled by humans. After the arrival of the Velari - a race of exquisitely powerful, dual-bodied conquerors - mankind was reclassified. Not enemies. Not allies. But pets.
Y/N has stayed off their radar for years, living quietly in a forgotten rural sector far from the Empire's crystal cities. She knows how to survive: obey the rules, stay unseen. But when she's summoned to attend a compulsory exhibition in the capital - a pageant meant to display "unclaimed strays" to the elite - everything changes.
Because he sees her.
Crown Prince Caelen never expected to bond. Velari bonds are rare, a biological link formed when instinct collides with fate - overwhelming, violent, unbreakable. But when his eyes meet hers across the gilded hall, it happens.
He doesn't know her name.
He doesn't care.
He only knows one thing:
She belongs to him.
Now Y/N is dragged into a palace of obsidian and glass, wrapped in velvet, chained in silk. Caelen calls her his treasure, his mate, his little stray. He is gentle when she's good. Punishing when she's not. And when she tries to escape?
He shows her what it means to be claimed by a creature with two hearts, two forms, and a single desire: to keep her forever.
She wants freedom.
He wants her in his bed, in his arms - and in heat.
He's not the villain. He's worse.
He's in love.
Will she escape, or will she remain in his grasp forever.
