HE SAID WE WOULD BE CLOSE, BUT I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THAT MEANT IF I DIED, HE WOULD TOO.

TAMSIN HEWETT

I only wanted to return to Earth, but the aliens murdered him before my eyes.

On the way to Earth, leaving a piece of me behind, my heart sank as I watched the man I cared for, allow me to walk away from him without a word.

Out of nowhere, we landed on the planet of Polyphemus III, and the one who holds a piece of my heart stepped forth. For the first time in my life, I believe that happiness, the joy of sharing your life with another, might be mine. My life has never been roses and champagne and this time was no different. Fairytales are popular on Earth, and every young girl secretly longs for her knight in glistening armor. This isn't Earth and my deepest fantasies were decimated like a nuclear bomb.

Right before my eyes, I watched them murdered him.

I want to deny my fated mate. Deny myself, but my heart is weak and my body under his command. His need to protect me and keep me safe makes his domination over me almost unbearable. I have tried to be his good little submissive and obey his command, but I can't. So, I do what us humans, do. Smile at him and plan my next move. What he and I have, is something so precious I can't even comprehend the magnitude of this intimate bond that the gods have bestowed on us.

In my heart, I hope the gods, will be on my side once more, keeping my fated mate and our bond protected, allowing him to understand… Revenge is mine. As I stand on the precipice, I know that my next steps will send me to stars or the fiery depths of hell. I'm not sure I will be able to live with my decision, which is fine since this is a one-way mission.

Precious, beautiful things usually don't last long. Like a shooting star, this moment in time might be fleeting but its effects carved into the depths of my soul forever.

IARRED ACKMED

Will our passion turn her eyes a stormy emerald or will they remain an amber color like the jewels in the Vhalian caves?

I never dreamed that my fated mate would be a human female nor that she would be so reckless that her revenge would cause her to willingly lay her life down. She is skittish and I would chase her through the nine galaxies if need be. Someone hold my crown. As a royal prince I am used to getting my way, however my mate does not understand true submission or how to obey. I am flabbergasted that after our intimate moment I am left with a parchment upon my dresser as she once again puts her life in danger.

The goddess truly did not make a mistake when gifting me her. I underestimated her need for justice just as she did my unwavering determination.

My fated mate does not understand that his death was a bigger than we could ever have imagined. I place her life above my crown and planet. I am facing the most challenging battle yet, as I must save my planet, my people, and my mate.

Humans are exhilarating, frustrating and utterly captivating. What prince wouldn't want that kind of excitement in his life? I am looking forward to teaching my Tamsin, many things. Humans get bord easily, yet our lives will never be monotonous.

If the space pirates touch what is mine, I will annihilate their entire species. I will destroy planets to protect her fragile heart. When I get my hands on her, I will teach her true submission. She is mine: to love, cherish, and protect.
