Chapters

Chapter Thirty  – Pippa “Here we go, just like grandma used to make. Probably.” I gently placed the soup bowl in front of Drex and handed him a spoon. “I’m fully recovered,” he assured me. “No need to treat me like an invalid.” There were dark circles under his eyes, […]

Chapter Twenty-Nine  – Noelle I couldn’t stop jumping at shadows. “You’re fine,” I told myself as I had to walk down the hallway where Darian had ambushed me. There was a dark alcove that I’d never paid any attention to before. That was where he’d waited, how he’d grabbed me. […]

Chapter Twenty-Eight – Pippa “You bring your supervisor down here right now, or no one in station security will have properly calibrated temperature control in their quarters ever again!” I yelled it into the comm, my lip curled. My hand would have been shaking if I wasn’t holding to comm […]

Chapter Twenty-Seven – Drex I heard the commotion, but my body still wouldn’t cooperate. Every muscle was pressed down by a phantom weight with sensation slowly—and painfully—returning.

Chapter Twenty-Four – Drex I didn’t want to leave my mate’s side the next day. Her bed was warm. Her body was soft and smelled like home. If I were a rich man, I’d lay at her side forever with no care for what was going on outside. But my […]

Chapter Twenty-Three – Drex It was a shame the shower wasn’t big enough for two. But perhaps for the best. If I stayed with my mate in the shower, we wouldn’t do anything else. My stomach growled, letting me know that I was hungry, and I wanted to talk to […]

Chapter Twenty-Two – Pippa Drex was waiting outside my door when I made it to my room, and the smile that lit up his face made my heart sing. Whatever emotion the denya bond was working, it was bringing him fully back into this world, and I wanted to help […]

Chapter Twenty-One – Pippa Denya. Mate. Drex. Words kept echoing around in my head, and even though things on the station were beyond scary, I couldn’t stop smiling. I had a mate. How cool was that? It wasn’t something I’d ever imagined before. Humans didn’t really do that, but I’d […]
