Breaking Storm by Lola Malone
The Imperials of Helion are about to learn what survives the storm.
Ryneth Kyron was never meant to make it home.
What should have been a simple job off-world ends in a cage. Auctioned by the Concordant, injured, and trapped far from everything he knows, Ryneth survives by being exactly what he has always been: furious, defensive, and impossible to break. Then the Imperial family realizes what he is. One of theirs. And instead of setting him free, they hand him to Daven Caelith.
Daven Caelith keeps what he’s given.
Beautiful, controlled, and dangerous in ways Helion’s elite often forget until it’s too late, Daven knows how to play his role. He knows how to smile, how to perform, how to make people underestimate him. But the moment Ryneth is placed in his hands, something shifts. What should have been temporary turns possessive fast. Because Ryneth isn’t just angry. He pulls. He sparks. And as the enemies circling them close in, Daven and Ryneth are forced into a battle neither of them expected, one that will drag them out of Helion’s glittering halls and into the heart of the storm.
