She's a fugitive with a secret that could ignite a war.
He's the exiled alien who just claimed her as his.
I was just a corporate archivist... until I uncovered something I shouldn't have.
One secret. One mistake. And now every hunter in the Shattered Rim has a kill-on-sight bounty on my head.
My ship barely holds together before crashing into a ship graveyard, and I'm certain it's the end... until he finds me.
A Gryx. Towering. Obsidian-skinned. Terrifyingly possessive.
He drags me from the wreckage, marks me as his fated mate, and promises protection from the killers hunting me.
But safety with him comes at a cost. His touch burns hotter than any danger outside... and captivity never felt so intoxicating.
Now I have to decide:
Will I survive the corporation determined to erase me,
or the alien who claims I belong to him?
Because one truth is clear—nothing in the universe will ever be the same again.
