Fivra, a resilient Terian female born in a penal colony, is uprooted when alien raiders abduct her and her friends and sell them at a galactic auction. Thrust into the dazzling world of Erovik--the elite, galactic brothel that bought her--Fivra draws the eye of Cyprian, the enigmatic director of Erovik. As their romance grows, Fivra learns that the Axis--the shadowy force that imprisoned her people--plans to seize the stolen females, including her. With her life at stake and Cyprian resolute in his determination to protect her, Fivra must release her fears and uncover her true strength, or risk losing everything. Cyprian Dek'lak has built a name for himself as the untouchable and calculating Zaruxian director of Erovik, but his flawless control shatters the moment Fivra is thrown into his orbit. With a dragon's possessive instincts surging through him, he is drawn to her in ways he cannot--and will not--deny. Her presence stirs long-buried questions about his hidden past. When the Axis comes for Fivra, Cyprian ignites a dangerous conflict with a power far greater than himself, one that threatens to destroy everything he's worked for. Contains mature themes.
