I’ll stop the traitor to protect my people … and my mate. When a traitor enslaves a peaceful ally, it’s my job to see them rescued and the turncoat brought to justice. I never thought liberating Valkredian allies would lead me to my mate. By the looks of it, Judy doesn’t belong among the Macurians, but the little human was raised from infancy by the King and Queen and she’s just as royal as any of them. The soul of a warrior beats within her and she’ll stop at nothing to save her people. Nothing could make me want to leave … until I meet him. Dhimurs shows up like a conquering hero to save Macura from a traitor. Though I’ll sacrifice anything to save my people, I alone am not enough. This Valkredian warrior is just the person I need … on the battlefield and off of it. But as the bond between us grows stronger I’ll have to decide where I truly belong: with the Macurians who accepted me or the alien warrior who saved me. What will become of a human raised an alien princess if she leaves her kingdom for a chance at true love?
