The Tethered Series

Lost and Bound (The Tethered Series Book 1) Özet

A run in with a mouse and a broken stair does the inexplicable; it changes my DNA. Im forced to flee my home, leaving everything and everyone Ive ever known behind. The alternative is being hunted down because these days you're either a pure-blooded human, or youre the enemy.

Ive barely started running, and Im faced with a choice. Its an easy decision, helping people is who I am, but it also starts a chain of events that has ever-lasting consequences.

I wake up in the infirmary at Thales, the largest and most prestigious mixed-species academy in Quin-state. With a mysterious benefactor sponsoring my attendance, Im suddenly a student again.

I know nothing about the others, but I quickly learn the supernatural beings at Thales are as prejudiced and cruel as the government back home. At every turn, teachers and students remind me of my designation. Im a Nom, a divine placeholder, the lowest of the lows. Were dispensable, a means to an end while the strongest beings search for their Kleis.

A drop of blood was all it took to flip my entire existence upside down, imagine whats going to happen when I figure out how to survive in their world.
