Shield

I was their captive. Now they're my destiny.

In Legacia, women with shield power are magical weapons, used to protect men until we burn out … and die. When my power was exposed, four elite, ruthless guards—my own countrymen—dragged me away to serve them. They thought I'd be obedient. They were wrong.

When I finally escaped them, I didn't find freedom; I found a prophecy. I'm Destiny's champion, the warrior fated to unite the fractured realms. And the only way to fulfill the prophecy is to bind myself to six men—including the very guards who stole me from my home.

I hate everything about this fate. I refuse to be controlled. So why does my magic sing when they're near? I escape to enemy territory, only to find two new, forbidden men whose brutal protection comes with a heat that threatens to consume me.

Six men—my enemies and saviors—will stop at nothing to claim me. Destiny demands I accept them.
But I'm done being fate's puppet. If I'm truly Destiny's champion, I'll forge my own path—before the coming war destroys everything I'm meant to protect.

The most dangerous thing in the realms isn't a sword or a monster—it's a woman who's finally taken control.

Contains mature themes.
