Sold to the Nalgar by Callia Silver

Cecilia Lim doesn’t have time for distractions. At thirty-five, she’s a sharp, relentless attorney in one of Manhattan’s top law firms, known for her precision, tenacity, and an unwavering commitment to justice. She doesn’t chase power—she chases outcomes. The right ones. For her clients, and for the truth.

But all of that ends one night when she’s dragged from her apartment and vanishes without a trace.
She wakes on another world. Cold. Disoriented. Terrified. At the feet of something huge, armored, and utterly inhuman. He doesn’t speak—not at first. Doesn’t explain why he’s taken her. And when he finally does, it’s worse than anything she imagined.
None of it makes sense. None of it feels real. But the fear is.
And Cecilia isn’t the type to kneel and obey. Even when she’s out of her depth. Even when her captor watches her like he already owns her.
As the strange connection between them deepens, one thing becomes terrifyingly clear:
She was stolen for a reason.
And he has no intention of letting her go.
