Chosen

I uncover an ancient secret society formed over two hundred years ago to keep me safe—me! I never asked these people to die for me, and I don't want it. I must win this fight on my own. Prepared or not, I'll face my fate and become the Chosen I've been destined to be all along.

My name is Juliet Wildfire Stone, and I barely escaped my sleepy Arizona town alive after a Seeker tried to murder me. There are three others like me—Chosen hybrids—each with different abilities. I must find them, because an alien race is plotting to enslave the world, and only the Chosen can stop them. We must fulfill our destiny... or run. As the Alpha, only I can lead the others, but how can I trust these people I've never met? No matter, because I'll do anything to stop the enemy... even if it kills me.

I need answers only my father can provide. Separated from birth, we’ve only recently connected. Still, I have no one else to turn to. The Deltites are hunting me and they’re close now. We’ll fight our final battle soon. Needing more information, I force him to tell me a story about the beginning, my beginning. He sheds new light on my mom, on my grandfather Sicheii, and on how I started down this path. He spins a tale about love, a recent murder, and mysterious strangers who come to town looking for a medicine man, my grandfather.

My name is Juliet Wildfire Stone, and like it or not, the fate of Earth rests in my hands. When I finally met the Prime Elector, he was nothing like I expected. He was supposed to be our mortal enemy, a monster I needed to destroy to fulfill my destiny, yet he was nothing like that.
