She was rejected by every god.
In a world where devotion defines your worth, Lyra Nymphaea has spent her life unclaimed—unwanted, unaligned, and dangerously close to being nothing at all. But the gods did not deny her by accident.
They denied her because she was never meant to belong beneath them.
On the day Lyra dies, she will rise as a goddess—born of strife, crowned in chaos, and powerful enough to stand among them.
And now that the truth is unraveling… they’re watching.
The God of Strife lingers in the shadows—cold, patient, and merciless—offering her the truth of what she will become… and urging her to embrace it.
The God of Lust shines in the open—seductive, dazzling, and impossible to ignore—offering her pleasure, attention, and a taste of the life she was always denied.
One will teach her how to unravel the world. The other will make sure she enjoys every second of it.
Both want her.
And the closer Lyra drifts toward them, the more dangerous the truth becomes—she was never meant to be chosen.
She was meant to ascend.
And when she does… she won’t belong to any god.
