Uncovered by the Alien Commander

He’s all claws, confidence, and charm—a dangerous combination for someone I'm about to betray

Tyrxie

Lost, and alone on this rundown starship is dangerous, but it’s all I’ve ever known. I’ve mastered the art of hiding in plain sight, dodging the gaze of my volatile captain and dangerous males. But when the powerful Klendathian Commander Xandor boards our ship, there’s nowhere to hide from the hulking hunter. His intensity is a force of nature, and his fierce golden eyes always uncovers me, forcing me to confront the past and reveal who I am… and what I am. But how can I trust him when my very survival demands I betray him?

Xandor

As Second of Clan Draxxus I've conquered battlefields and planets alike—and I'm undeniably its most handsome warrior. With no fated mate to bind me like my chieftain, I was the perfect choice for this mission of peace. Then I boarded this junk heap of a ship and found... her. Tyrxie. This fascinating human who somehow resists my obvious charms, hunts my thoughts like a stalking venefex! Behind her wary eyes lies both pain and a hidden fire. Though she fights our connection, I've sworn to protect her at any cost. But as ancient hatreds resurface and revenge threatens all, can I prove that my true strength lies not in my claws, but in our growing bond?
