Saphora: Retention (Volume 1)
by Jaz Johnson

Daughter of Athenian and Guardian, a forbidden pairing of the two dominant species on Athena, Saphora is the key to the war’s end and the tool in the start of another. Each species on their own hold tremendous power. But combined, should Saphora survive its capacity like none before her, her power could mean supremacy. And Ares can’t have that. Exiled heir to the Kiran throne, she’s bent on reclaiming it - even if it means exterminating the remaining bloodline to do so. In an attempt to save her from the midst of war, Saphora is cast to Earth. As a mere child, her memory of Athena - and her power, taken from her upon impact. This grants her body the maturity needed to contain her power. Power that as she ages, she discovers - along with pieces of her memory. Unfortunately, she is not the only one to discover them. Being his patient for nearly her entire life, Dr. James Lupin has noticed more than a few anomalies. And so has the man sent to kill her - her awakening now allowing her to be tracked. With her world turned upside down, Saphora’s got a new check-list. Find her guardian, figure out Lupin’s agenda, return home - and stay alive.
