She chose them. Now the Reach demands she answer for it.
Kira knew going to the Zorathi Reach would be dangerous, but she didn't expect to be put on trial for loving the wrong men.
The Tribunal calls it contamination. Cultural corruption. A human who dared bond with four Zorathi Knights and "polluted" an ancient tradition. The punishment? Prison. Separation. Exile.
But the trial is just the beginning.
As Kira faces the Knights' powerful families—a First Prefect heir, a scheming diplomat, a corporate titan—she and her Knights uncover a conspiracy woven into the Reach's leadership. Hidden deals. Quiet betrayals. Corruption rotting the ruling class to the core. And Kira? She's the most convenient scapegoat they could have chosen.
The tribunal wants her silenced. Kira plans to make them listen.
The tether between Kira and her Knights burns hotter under pressure; protective glances, forbidden touches, devotion sharpened by the threat of being torn apart. These warriors didn't choose her because tradition demanded it. They chose her because they would burn the Reach itself before letting it take her.
Perfect for readers who crave:
- Reverse harem alien romance (1 woman, 4 fiercely devoted warriors)
- Political intrigue with real consequences
- Spicy romance with guaranteed HEA
- Found family standing against blood legacy
This is book 3 in The Zorathi Knights series and is best enjoyed in order.
