This was one of the greatest losses the female Granian had ever experienced in her life of war and combat.
A battle which she once thought would be quick and flawless in their favor turned into defeat once a fleet of Ethisians appeared suddenly, destroyed the Granian forces from advancing forward and then took Helda and the humans as their prized prisoners.
Meanwhile, her mate Grim—the one who was put in charge of the whole operation and given a fleet to control—was nowhere to be seen. He vanished without a trace, leaving his pregnant mate and unborn child behind at the mercies of the Ethisians.
Distraught, speechless, and too pregnant to fight back, Helda let the Ethisian soldiers bind her arms and legs before they took her to Commander's ship.
Her mind tried to make sense of the entire situation but it didn't stick. How did the Ethisians get there so quickly? How were they able to cover such a great distance like they did?
