When a dragon's mind shatters under an impossible attack, only his human partner can save him—by becoming something the galaxy has never seen.

Agent Mara Grayson knows two truths: trust your partner, and follow the mission. But when a cryo-bomb assassinates a wyvern diplomat and her dragon guardian Thalen is paralyzed by a force that shouldn't exist, both rules shatter.

The weapon was designed to kill dragons. The conspiracy behind it reaches into the highest levels of galactic government. And the evidence trail leads straight to Mara's own father.

Forced off the books and hunted by the Syndicate, Mara has nowhere to turn—until she meets Aelora, a dragon prophet who's been waiting for her across lifetimes. Together, they uncover a truth buried for millennia: the Vek'Shar, an ancient warrior race thought extinct, are returning. And they've been twisted by bio-engineering into psionic weapons that can tear minds apart.

To save Thalen and stop the conspiracy, Mara and Aelora must unlock an ancient prophecy and forge a bond that transcends flesh and spirit. But the transformation into the Seraphant—a fusion of human will and dragon fire—demands everything they are.

And deep in the Null Zone, something darker is stirring. The Vek'Shar Queen has awakened, and the man who freed her will stop at nothing to see the galaxy burn.
