CARLA
I was done. Trapped in a metal room on an alien harvest ship, I was too physically atrophied to stand for long and too numb to care what came next. Then the rebellion hit. When the doors finally open, I don't find freedom…I find him. He’s a massive, injured alien enforcer with a cracked-open skull, a terrifyingly cheerful voice, and a strange new task: to care for me. He doesn’t need anything from me. He doesn't expect me to be brave, grateful, or magically fixed. But on a living ship where our former masters could return at any moment to reclaim their cargo, wanting to live again might be the biggest risk of all.

I have blood on my hands and a history stained by the horrific orders I was forced to execute. Now that my control chip is shattered and the ship is free, my guilt is a living weight. The moment I find Carla…fragile, exhausted, and fading away in the dark…something shifts inside my center. She thinks I am a monster built to butcher her kind for parts. She isn't entirely wrong. But as the ship’s fragile rebellion threatens to collapse around us, I will defy my old masters and tear the stars apart to give this human a reason to exist again.
