Taken by the Destroyer

It was the pit reserved for only the most horrific criminals. A collection of evil overlords, genocidal megalomaniacs, and some creatures with crimes too horrible to fathom. And through some cosmic joke, Elisa was going to be joining them. She would not last the day. She froze and slowly looked over her shoulder, and up and up, until she finally met the gaze of the huge alien behind her. He was easily twice her height and so heavily muscled she could barely make sense of it. His face could have been considered attractive with the high, prominent cheekbones and chiseled jawline, but his golden eyes held as much softness and warmth as actual gold. But none of that was what made her heart stutter in her chest. No. It was the alien’s identity. How could she have possibly forgotten the prison’s most infamous prisoner? He had destroyed entire planets, killed billions of people, and it had taken the galactic army to finally bring him to justice. He was arguably the worst criminal in the galaxy. Adnin, the Destroyer of Worlds.
