She was an orphan in her first life- forgotten, unloved, and unclaimed. When death came, she expected nothing. Instead, she awoke in a world ruled by beasts, bloodlines, and a god who assigns destiny like a verdict. In a land where power meant eeverything, she is reborn as the one thing that does not belong: a human. Without a beast form and without protection, she survives through silence and resilience. For years, she hides at the edges of society-learning the rules of a world that was never meant to include her, all while fearing the one law that cannot be escaped. At eighteen, every female is marked by the Beast God and bound to her destined beastmate. Humans are never chosen. Or so she believed. On the night of her coming of age, fate breaks its own laws. The mark on her neck burns not once-but five times. Five ancient bloodlines answer her call: dragon, nine-tailed fox, phoenix, obsidian serpent, and white tiger. Five sovereign beasts. One fragile human. As gods stir, nations tremble, and seals begin to weaken, she must confront a truth far more terrifying than being unwanted- She was not overlooked by fate. She was chosen for a reason.

Lyra is one of four humans who awakens in a dazzling but dangerous world, lightyears from home. The stars are unfamiliar. The skies burn with twin moons. And Earth, as they knew it, is gone-erased by a cataclysm they can't explain. Somehow, the four of them have appeared where they shouldn't-even in theory. Declared anomalies by the Tharions, an advanced and war-forged alien race, the humans are placed under guarded observation. Assigned to watch over them is Kael Vel'Sar: heir to the throne, commander of the Royal Forces of Tharion Accord, and a figure whispered about more for his battlefield legend than his compassion. As Lyra begins to adjust to the new reality, she finds herself inexplicably drawn to Kael, whose loyalty to his people runs as deep as the scars of war across his skin. Kael is bound by tradition, honor, and blood. His duty is to protect his world, investigate the time-tossed humans, and report to the Council . But Lyra is unlike anyone he's ever met- curious, fearless and irresistibly human. Their chemistry ignites the moment they meet... a heat neither of them dares touch. Kael is forbidden to bond with an outsider. But Lyra is already a disruption to Tharion order. And because one kiss could shatter an empire. In a world where love between species is not just taboo but treason, Lyra and Kael must choose between their hearts and the fragile alliance that is all that stands between peace and extinction.

She sneaks away every night after that to meet him, finding herself falling for all 7 feet of him.... even if she can't understand a thing that he says. Fray has come from Rytaria to collect human females, the salvation of his race. As soon as he meets his precious Soleil, he knows he has to have her. Little does she know that Fray will do whatever it takes to make her his mate, and he will worship the very ground she walks on.
