The Chosen — Kaitlyn O'Connor

Kaya grew up without her mother and without any knowledge of the world her people had come from. Kept in poverty and ignorance, no living humans had any notion of what it was the chaki wanted from them. For the chosen never returned to tell any tales.The shifter, Rahn, who befriended her as a child and mentored her into adulthood, is her protector. Lord Mordan is the half-breed chaki aristocrat who selects her from among the chosen as his consort.But Kaya is the one true chosen--hand picked by fate to free her people from the chains of the chaki to freedom.
