Synopsis

She asked the heavens for a hero—but instead, found a weapon who would burn galaxies to protect her. Gwendolyn Model. Fashion Icon. Pawn. “Beauty is only skin deep.” If I heard it once, I heard it a thousand times during my career. My worth—to my parents, my manager, my agent—was measured only by the perfection of my face. Surrounded by people, I was still utterly alone. No friends. No love. No connection. Just a commodity—used for profit, status, and fame. Then one act of madness changed everything. I vanished from the public eye, only to be abducted by beings not of this world. At the lowest point of my life, I found something I never expected: hope. He doesn’t say much, but his actions speak louder than words ever could. I’d wished on countless falling stars for a knight in shining armor to save me from my gilded prison. Instead, fate gave me something far better—a dragon who would set the world ablaze to protect me. Murgul Beast. Warrior. Survivor. “The only constant in life is change.” I’ve always hated that phrase, though I can’t deny its truth. I’ve never known peace or comfort—only pain. My earliest memory is of a sterile room, a masked being driving needles into my flesh, forging me into the perfect weapon. Unfortunately for the Void, they succeeded. I’ve never known tenderness or love. I am an abomination that shouldn’t exist, yet I endure. Then a chance encounter with a lone Velgriddix ship turns my existence upside down. From the shadows of the netherworld, I find her—a light so bright it cuts through my darkness. She is everything I’ve ever longed for, everything I’ve been denied. But the horrors the Velgriddix inflicted on me unleashed something inside… and he lives for nothing but her—and will destroy anything that dares to take her away. This storyline ends in an HEA, but continues on throughout the remaining series as each book concentrates on a particular couple. Have questions? Keep reading, and all will be revealed...
