Solara
There isn't a person in my life who understands or accepts me. Not my mother, either of my siblings, any of their friends, my coworkers, or my uncles. They're all entitled, affluent types that love the way money talks. When they discover what I've been doing on my own, without their consent, they use their power to wreck my life. Fortunately, they didn't find out about my Alien Bride Race entry. So I leave everything behind to take my chances on finding an alien mate.
I never expected to see suave, confident Onidus again. He's the only one who ever looked at me as a person, someone with inherent value other than money. Our shared trauma is what changed us both and made us different from our peoples. He's grown into a skilled soldier far beyond my comprehension, and feelings emerge that I've tucked away for years. I know his pretty boy smirk isn't genuine, that deep down he's still haunted by why happened.
He makes it his mission to protect me, even if he won't admit it. Onidus always seems to show up right when I need someone. No one has ever backed me up before, not like he does. So I start to do the same for him. I can't afford to lose him, not this time.
When my family finds out where I'm at, they make my life miserable all over again. My ABR games get interrupted. Male interests start disappearing. Onidus says he can help me mask my identity and give me a new life, but I'm going to have to leave Earth behind...not as his mate but as a soldier for his people. I'm leaving one war to fight another. I hope trusting Onidus is the right decision. But part of me won't admit the real reason I'm following him home.
I fell for hunky, sweetOnidus the moment we met all those years ago.
Onidus
I train. I guard. I fight when war demands it. My people need me to be their go-to weapon. And I use it as a way to hide from my past. I know I need to make a change. It isn't healthy. But it's more the fear that I will be alone forever with no one to trust with these memories that are eating me up, which makes me reconsider my future. As much as bitterness and bandages feel like home, deep down, I don't like living here.
General Viriden pushes me to go to the Alien Bride Race. I'm not certain it's for my benefit as much as it is a necessity to be present for a different mission, one he's rather vague about. But when I see Solara, years after our brush with death, I know why I'm here. To say I have missed her is an understatement.
She is still as fiercely independent, sassy, and tender hearted as she was back then. Now, she's grown into a gorgeous, curvy addiction. She just gets too caught up in her family trouble to enjoy her race or focus on finding a mate. So I offer the only solution I can think of to keep her close.
I don't want to control her life. She's had enough of that. It's why I won't ask her to be mine.
While training her and turning her into an Isonian soldier helps her, it ultimately sends her away from me. When a conflict goes sideways, I realize the only way to truly keep her safe is to keep her close. No one else will protect her the way I will. I just hope she can find it in her heart to finally let me in.
And I hope she can forgive me for the choices I have to make.
A spicy fast-paced, friends to lovers, science fiction romance with action, violence, cursing, and powerful Isonian aliens.
