As one of the few human women trapped aboard the galaxy's most infamous breeder prison, escape was impossible... until I stole the one thing no empire dares challenge.
A mating bond.
Now every scanner, every guard, and every law in the galaxy believes I belong to him.
Flara is a towering four-armed alien warlord with a reputation for violence, obsession, and never letting go of what's his. He knows our bond is a lie.
He also knows it's the only way we'll both get off this prison barge alive.
To fool everyone around us, we have to share a cell. Share a bed. Touch. Hold. Pretend we're hopelessly claimed.
The problem?
His species doesn't understand the difference between fake and real.
Neither does my heart.
Because every possessive growl... every protective touch... every heated glance tells me the same thing.
I may have stolen an alien mate...
But the ruthless warlord is determined to keep me forever.
