Hauling scrap to feed his family and pay for his sick brother's plague treatments, The Twilight Scion of a Lost House finds himself in possession of a Human that somehow managed to escape the Grays.
Humans, and Earth, are strictly Off-Limits, and being caught with Chess--no matter the circumstances or reasons--will be the final destruction of his House and family. But he also can't shove her out an airlock or abandon her at a shipyard. She's an innocent victim, and the Grays will be looking for her. Her fate in the hands of the Gestalt authorities will be just as bad.
She's delicate, soft, and luscious. Clearly, he's been alone for too long if he's attracted to a Human. And this particular Human is already spoken for, with a mate of her own waiting for her back on Earth. But Chess shines as bright as a star, and resisting her pull is nearly impossible.
There's only one way to buy the time to keep her safe until he can figure out how to get rid of her. He'll have to spend his family's meager savings on the trinket that will awaken his awareness of his true mate, and present her as that mate. She's brave enough to go along with the plan, and kinder to him than he deserves.
His brothers will be furious, the Gestalt will mock him, and she'll need to be gone before his true mate arrives.
The little Human's secrets are astonishing, and her courage undeniable, and when the moment comes, the Twilight Scion isn't sure he will be able to give her up... even if it's impossible that she stay with him.
Spared By The Monster is a standalone sci-fi monster romance. No cliffhanger, of course!
