Summary
Lena Kieran ran from the Luthor name straight into the Systems Alliance Navy and never looked back.
After enlisting as a teenager, Lena leverages her service into an education the Alliance can’t refuse: multiple degrees, cutting-edge research, and finally a doctoral placement light-years from Earth at the University of Argo on Krypton. It’s meant to be a clean break. A future built on science, discipline, and distance. No family. No baggage. No attachments.
Then she meets Kara Zor-El.
As Lena navigates the pressures of Alliance expectations, Kryptonian custom, and a galaxy still uneasy about humanity’s place in it, what begins as a chance encounter becomes something far more dangerous.
Because falling in love is one thing.
Doing it across species, cultures, and the weight of history is another entirely.

Summary
Lena realized, with mounting horror, that it wasn't Lex's portal watch; she'd had that in her pocket. That was-
Mercy's lackey flipped the cover open, and just as Lena blurted out a sharp "Don't," he pushed the button.
"You idiot," Lena choked out. "That's my signal watch."
"Signal watch?" said the Child of Liberty.
"Signal watch?" said Mercy. "Signal watch! You idiot," She rounded on the others. "We need to leave, now. Get Luthor and-"
Somewhere in the distance, there was a crash of shattering concrete and a series of harsh bursts of automatic gunfire. Mercy tensed, taking a step from the door as the sounds grew closer. Cracking concrete. Rending metal. Screaming.
"You have no idea what you've done," Lena choked out.
"What do you mean?"
"The Kryptonite in your chest," said Lena. "It's red."***
After Lena betrays Kara and abandons her at the Fortress of Solitude, Kara is again exposed to radiation from Red Kryptonite, unleashing her darkest thoughts and impulses. Will Kara and Lena burn the world together, or rise from the ashes?
