Lust. Tribute to the Alphagods, #1

Every thousand years, the Gods demand tribute. Chosen at birth. Cultivated in secret. To the public, they are special, prodigies: musicians, athletes, scholars, and artists blessed with unimaginable talents. But beneath the glamour lies a brutal truth: they were never free. They were never lucky. They were chosen. As a sacred offering to the immortal Alphagods, twelve humans are unknowingly prepared from infancy to become sacrifices.
Everything about them has been designed and manufactured to make them a more desirable gift to the divine beings waiting for them. On the week of their twenty-fifth birthdays, their long-awaited fates are sealed. Snatched from their lives, they are dragged into a hidden facility and sent into another realm. But the reckoning is only the beginning. Transported to a realm where gods still reign, the chosen must face the truth.
Caught up in something much bigger than themselves, they have to learn to survive in a place beyond Earth, where the Gods play. Ashten, an accomplished musician learns to navigate in her new life with Apollo, the God of Music.  Perfect for fans of mythology, sacrifice and twisted gods who don't play fair.
