Svera He's staring at me again. Protector, tormentor, roommate. It's against my religion to spend this much time with Krisxox – or any male – but he's a shadow I can't seem to shake. For all his hatred for the human species, he joins me on my next mission to the human colony. Our welcome party? Deception, betrayal and pirates. This isn't my first time crossing paths with the pirates seeking to steal human women. But this is the first time that I've had the coordinates to an unprotected human space station – and the pirate king wants them. Stuck in a desperate situation, I'm not sure if Krisxox is a help or a hindrance. He wants me to live, but he's a short-tempered brute and I suspect that if he can't learn to work with me – a human – both of us will end up dead. Krisxox I'm staring at her again. I don't think she's noticed. And that's good. She's a filthy human. I don't need her knowing that she's my one true mate. With enough hate, I intend to break the bond, but until then...I guess I'll stick with keeping her safe. That becomes a harder task than anticipated when human nature reveals its acidic underbelly. Deals brokered by ghosts bring pirates to our shores. They think they can take her and use her for information. Not sviking happening. I'll keep her alive. I'll keep her at arm's length. But what happens when we're trapped together in a dungeon barely bigger than a box? Keeping her alive and fighting blood-thirsty pirates doesn't seem so scary as what will happen when she finds out that she's my Xiveri mate. Taken to Heimo is a full-length (95k words), standalone, interracial, SciFi romance complete with a possessive alpha alien – who's also a big jerk – and a sweet, smart heroine who has no trouble standing up to him. This story features fated mates who are also enemies-to-lovers, epic world building and steam – lots of it. All Xiveri Mates books can be read as standalones, each one with a guaranteed HEA, but I recommend reading book 1 first to set the stage. NO cheating, harem or love triangles. Violent action scenes may be disturbing for some readers. *************************************************************************** ★★★ Taken to Heimo teaser ★★★ "You’re going to make it out of here alive. I’m the shield. Nothing will touch you. But I’m not a fool to think they’ll let me live after what I plan to do to them." “You think fighting is the only way,” she says smoothing down her skirts as if we aren’t trapped in the bowels of some universe-forsaken transporter, me – about to be dismembered, her – about to be raped. I balk, “What are you going to do? Talk them to death?” She levels me with a stare. Even and cool. It gives me the chills. Me. Krisxox. Ten times her size, I’m suddenly caught in her shadow. And not for the first time. “Precisely. I’m going to negotiate.”
