Bred by the Alien Warlord

His armada is dying out, and she is the only one alive who can read why. The warlord took her off her world - and he is never giving her back.

Sable can read why a bloodline fails. One sample, and she names the unseen thing killing a herd, a crop, a colony - and condemns the barren without flinching. It is the coldest trade on the frontier, and she is the best there is.

When a war-fleet blots out her sky and a plated hand lifts her off the ground, she expects to be one more body by morning. Instead the warlord keeps her: towering, armored, the last lord of a people whose young are going still in their cradles, killed by something none of them can fight. He needs the one creature who can read the killer - and once found, he decides she is his.

She tells herself she helps his line to survive, that she will find the way home the moment the work is done.

A warlord who has chosen does not give back what he has decided to keep.

A dark, possessive monster romance with scorching heat and a guaranteed HEA.
