The Masses

"When a King chooses his Rainha, the universe trembles."

VALERIE PETERS
Look, I didn't ask for any of this. I didn't ask for aliens to invade Earth when I was eight years old.
I didn't ask to grow up in a world where humans survive by keeping their heads down and their mouths shut.
And I definitely didn't ask for a knife to come flying at my chest in a back‑alley fight I should've walked away from.

But when death comes for me, something else comes first.

A massive green hand with purple claws appears out of thin air, catching the blade inches from my heart.
Then the rest of him materializes - seven feet of muscle, armor, fangs, and a growl that vibrates straight through my bones.

He looks at me like he knows me.
Like he's been waiting for me.
Like I'm his.

And that's when my life stops being mine.

VORK
I am one of the Five Kings.
Forged in war.
Crowned in blood.
Feared across galaxies.

I do not protect.
I do not comfort.
I do not save.

Until I scent her.

The human woman with fire in her eyes and destiny in her bones.
The one the Supreme Mother warned me about.
The one the Dark Lord wants dead.
The one the planet itself bends toward.

My Rainha.

When the Ominion return to claim the galaxy - and her - I will tear worlds apart to keep her safe.
Let them come.
Let them bleed.
Let them learn what it means to threaten what is mine.

Because I was born a beast.
But for her, I will become a god.
