She was raised to believe her body was a sin. They were sent to show her it was sacred.

Piety has never made a choice that wasn't made for her. In the sanctuary on the edge of the Australian bush, The Voice of God decides everything — who speaks, who prays, who belongs. Her father calls her Jezebel for the way she walks. The elders use the House of Reflection to bake rebellion out of children who ask too many questions. And now, to keep the peace, they're trading her to a man whose fists will finish what her father's words started.

She has never seen a city. She has never been allowed to doubt. And she has absolutely no framework for four alien warriors — purple, white, green, and red — who crash into her world and look at her like she's the answer to a question she didn't know existed.

Visor thinks before he speaks, watches before he moves, and sees Piety with a clarity that terrifies her — because no one in the sanctuary ever looked at her without judgement. Wraith is a former slave, hairless and half-feral, stripped of fangs and claws by twenty years in the mines — but he knows exactly what obedience looks like when it's beaten into someone, because he lived it. Yatis smooths every edge the others sharpen, easy and quick and warm in all the places Piety has been taught warmth is dangerous. And Zaron doesn't bother with diplomacy. He is blunt, volatile, and absolutely certain that the men who hurt her should be dealt with by his fists rather than his words.

They call her podmate. Their biology is certain. Her scripture says they're abominations.

And the sanctuary wants her back. Because a woman who walks away from God's flock isn't free — she's fallen. And the fallen get stoned.

Piety can repent. Marry the brute. Keep her head down and her mouth shut and belong to the only world she's ever known. Or she can follow four alien warriors past the edge of everything she was taught to believe — into asteroid mines and deep space and a bond that her father would burn her alive for accepting.

It isn't a choice between safety and danger. Both paths end in blood. The only question is whether she bleeds for a god who was never hers, or fights for a love that is.

A woman raised to repent. Four warriors who refuse to let her. And a bond that doesn't care what her scripture says.

Romance where love is the hardest choice — and the most necessary one.
