Alien Warlord’s Fury by Ava York

He wants a plan.
I want action.
But the children don’t have time to wait.
I escaped Hammond’s experiments—barely.
Now those monsters have Nyxari younglings, and I’ll burn through the world to get them out.
Nirako is everything I don’t want—controlled, calculating, maddeningly calm.
And the only one who insists on coming with me.
His touch steadies my unstable markings.
His kiss? It unravels everything.
We’re connected by something ancient and electric.
But if we can’t trust each other, it won’t just be the mission that breaks—
it’ll be us.
