Running from an attack by the Alliance
and looking for cover, a derelict ship unexpectedly comes into view.
JeVit of the Pure takes the opportunity to hide behind it, not expecting
to find an open bay door inviting them in. Too late she realizes she
should have rejected that invitation.
Centurion Zeke
Rossi and his team are in pursuit of an enemy ship when it
just…disappears. Spotting an alien vessel they don’t recognize, the
Terrans temporarily give up the chase to investigate, and Zeke is tapped
to board the ship first to look around. Immediately, his gut tells him
something is wrong. It’s not until he enters the spacecraft that his
feeling is validated, but he has no idea the worst is yet to come.
The ship seems to be truly deserted, but
the two couldn’t be more wrong. When their paths cross, JeVit realizes
that although Zeke is injured, their best chance of surviving is to call
a truce and join forces. However, trust between enemies proves
difficult.
When escape becomes possible, JeVit
chooses the path most likely to save Zeke’s life, and hopefully not end
hers on sight. But when Zeke awakens, his memories are nothing but
flashes, other than the gray-eyed, blue-headed beauty he keeps
envisioning. What happened to him? What happened to her? And how does
she fit into the puzzle of his piecemeal memory?
Raised to be sworn enemies, the two
can’t resist the pull to be together, despite what it means for their
future. They’re willing to risk it all, but can they convince the
Terrans and the Hafu to unite against a common enemy?
Warning!
Contains beef jerky, trust issues, lessons in swearing,
Vah plus six, absolute darkness,and one man
making the ultimate sacrifice to return to the woman he's come to love
when he knows he has nothing left to lose.
