The world is not what it should be. Lucian was born of unknown blood and raised to become Rucrea's future king and Guardian of the Realms. Their enemies had long been defeated, and their land had enjoyed peace for nearly twenty-five years. But when a portal pulls him from his time, he is forced to confront a broken world. Old enemies have risen, breathing life into prophecies that should have crumbled to dust. Their schemes rot the lands and unravel the future that Lucian's fathers once fought to protect. Fate cares nothing for timelines. So, Lucian picks up his swords and fights across eras--from the myths of the past to centuries yet to come. But he will not face the darkness alone. Warning: This novel contains mature scenes, including sexual content and violence. ***This is a sequel to A Ghost's Wish. Although this is considered a standalone novel, names and events will be referenced in this novel. I recommend reading A Ghost's Wish before Dragon Lost in Time to enjoy the full experience.***

What does it mean to have a destiny? Is it the path laid before you? The blood flowing through your veins? Or the choice you make when the entire universe tells you who you're supposed to become? Akkakitsu Yves never believed he had a destiny. Ten years after the Nocturne brought his homeworld to ruin, Yves abandons ideas of heroes, vengeance, and glorious last stands. Survival is enough. Alongside the Cat-God Sol and the mythical Griffin Akame, he hunts demons and captures stragglers who mysteriously cross into their half of a painfully divided universe. Then one of those stragglers changes everything. Suddenly, the survivor who wanted nothing to do with destiny finds himself surrounded by it. Forgotten Gods. Ancient prophecies. Bloodlines carrying the weight of generations. A Goddess who divided the universe to save it. And beings whose lives were seemingly decided before they ever had the chance to choose for themselves. As the truth behind the Nocturne begins to unravel, Yves must confront a possibility far more terrifying than death: Can destiny tell a man where he is meant to stand? What blood he carries? What the world expects him to become? And when the barrier separating the universe begins to fail, Yves will have to decide whether destiny is something meant to be fulfilled... or something meant to be defied.
