Betty Alecto

The seas are changing. Whispers spread from port to port of a relic long thought to be myth—the Godless Heart, an artifact said to hold the power to sever fate, silence gods, and unmake the will of kings. Empires want it. Cults worship it. Pirates kill for even a rumor of its location. And somewhere between legend and truth sails Betty Alecto. Known across the oceans for her striking beauty—wild red hair like flame, piercing eyes, and a presence that turns heads in every harbor—Betty is not what most expect. She is kind where others are cruel, merciful where others are greedy… but when pushed, she becomes something terrifyingly efficient. Those who mistake her compassion for weakness rarely live to correct themselves. Her ship, The Mercy’s Ruin, has become a haven for the lost, the indebted, and the damned. Her crew is fiercely loyal, not because they fear her—but because they believe in her. And now, she is hunting the Godless Heart. Not to wield it. But to ensure no one else ever can.
