Treasured by the Alien Pirate. Mates of the Kilgari

I'm a wanted woman. In more ways than one. I was arrested, then imprisoned in cryosleep, and finally rescued by a crew of horned, golden skinned aliens. Now my government has branded me a traitor. Whoever is after me is willing to kill--to destroy anything and anyone in their way. They're powerful and without mercy. It's enough to make me lose all hope. Until Grantian. He's a dangerous man and he promises to protect me.
Former mercenary with the Hael Hounds--more blood on his hands than he cares to recount. He's experienced suffering. And pain. And loss. I can tell that he sees something in me. Something that makes him willing to kill again. Yet with him, I feel safe. And even if we travel to the ends of the galaxy, With him... I feel like I'm home.
