About this story
Their species is fading, and they need a partner to save it — no courtship, no waiting. Their captive insists on being known first. Twenty-five chapters of alien etiquette lessons, a garden grown from memories of Earth, and a trek across a planet that feeds on desire, where giving in would kill all three of them.
Who you’ll meet
Dark and Light, the two alien queens who court the reader together and rule side by side.
