He is the Kingof Luda, blood brother to the Emperor and his line will die with him. He will have no offspring forno female would join with him for once he was scarred he was considered 'unfit'. The TornianEmpire has been dying ever since the great infection caused the birth of females to become a rarity.Since then they have been searching the known universes for compatible females. The Emperor'sdiscovery of a compatible female on a slave ship changed that. He'd ordered Grim to find hisEmpress' home world so more 'unprotected' females could be obtained, knowing Grim would neverbe allowed to Join with one.Lisa Miller is a widowed mother of two little girls, Carly and Miki. Her husband died just a yearago, after a long battle with cancer and she misses him immensely. Friends want her to start datingagain but in her heart, she knows there isn't a man on the planet she could love like her Mark. Whocould love their girls like their own. Therefore, she'll stay alone.When Lisa is discovered 'unprotected' at her husband's grave, she wakes on an alien ship headingfor an alien world. Refusing to accept this she confronts the large males, demanding she be returnedto her children. Seeing his chance to have a female, Grim agrees to accept and protect her offspring,if she agrees to Join with him and only him. Realizing this is the only way she can retrieve herchildren Lisa agrees and the Tornian Empire changes forever.Chapter OneThe sun shines brightly as Lisa crosses the grass to Mark. It is the perfect spring day for a picnic.“Happy Birthday my love.” Lisa smiles, setting down the sandwich and drink. She tosses aside astray blade of grass that has invaded their make shift table as she sits cross-legged in front of him.“Yes, it has that stinky blue cheese on it that you love. Ricky remembered just how you liked it.”Responding to the question he always asked, leaning back on her hands she closes her eyes, letting thesun warm her face.“The girls are doing fine. I’ll bring them by later. Trisha’s with them while they take their naps. Ijust wanted some alone time with you.” She forces the tears from her golden brown eyes as she looksat Mark’s headstone.“Mark Wilbur Miller” It reads. “Loving husband and father.”“I miss you Mark.” She whispers. “I miss our talks. How you could always make me laugh. Imiss your arms around me, holding me in the middle of the night, letting me know everything will beokay. I miss our fights….I miss making up….” Lisa finds she can’t go on.“Sorry.” She half chuckles wiping away her tears. “Here it is your twenty-seventh birthday andI’m crying like an idiot.” The birds sing to her in reply as the wind dislodges a strand of long auburnhair to caress her face.“I know.” She reaches up tucking the piece behind her ear. “You’d be here if you could.Protecting us, making sure we have everything we need but we’re going to be okay. Carly startsschool this fall and Miki will have her play group." Lisa sighs deeply thinking how fast her babiesare growing. "I was thinking that maybe I’d finish up that degree I started before Carly was born.”She looks to the stone. “I’d only have two years left and you always liked how I decorated the house.I mean, I’m only twenty four, I wouldn’t be that much older than the other students.” When the sundims Lisa looks up frowning, there isn’t a cloud in the sky.“Well that was strange.” Forgetting about it, she looks back to Mark. “Trisha wants me to meet afriend of hers but I told her it was too soon and don’t think you can change my mind Mark Miller!”Lisa finds she can’t sit. “It’s barely been a year since you died. I’m not ready to ‘meet’ men. I don’twant to ‘meet’ men, no matter what I promised you when you were sick! There’s not a man on theplanet that I could love as much as you, who could love our girls as much as you and I won’t settle foranything less Mark. I want it all…again…or I’d rather be alone.”The snapping of a twig, followed by a low growl, has Lisa spinning around, but before she canprocess what she’s seeing, her world goes black.Through the view port of the control room, Grim glares down at the small blue planet, after weeksof endless searching, he'd finally found it. How had a species so primitive, so backward, been able toamass so many females while leaving them unprotected? How had the planet never been discovered?Dozens of species were scouring the universes searching for compatible females, for they were themost valuable resource in all the universes. They were all that stood in the way of extinction formany since the great infection, including Grim’s own, the Tornians.It is why his brother, the Emperor of the Tornian Empire entrusted him with the task of finding hisnew Empress’ home planet. Her arrival on Tornian had shocked many, for while she is smaller andsofter than their females she is nearly identical in all other areas. No other females in the knownuniverses were as compatible.She’d been found on a Ganglian slave ship bound for their home world where she would havebrought a high price with her pale skin and flaming red hair, for colored hair is as rare a females.Slavery was against Tornian Law and Ganglian ships carrying them were banned from their [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
