Sixteen-year-old Lena has always felt like school is a routine to endure, until a quiet, intensely observant new boy named Kai arrives at Westbridge High. Kai doesn't understand modern slang, flinches at cameras, and calculates the trajectory of everyday noises like a machine. But when Lena catches him staring into the night sky with a look of desperate, hollow grief, she knows he is hiding something massive.
And then, during a class trip to the observatory, the impossible happens. Kai casually reveals coordinates to a distant, uncharted star system-and confesses the truth: he isn't human.
Fleeing a rigid, emotionless civilization called Astra, Kai came to Earth to finally choose his own path. But falling in love with a human wasn't part of the protocol. As the two grow closer, the countdown begins. A subspace pulse sweeps the local sector, and an alien extraction unit locks onto their coordinates.
Kai is forced to make an impossible choice: return to the planet that caged him, or stay with the girl who taught him how to feel-risking everything they both love in the process.
Some secrets are too heavy for gravity.
Packed with high-stakes sci-fi tension, intense forbidden romance, and unforgettable heart, From Twelve-Delta is a gripping YA romance about the bridges we build across the stars.
