Claimed By the Krijese

Kala
All Krijese have known is war. Between battles and the disease that ravaged our population, we have almost ceased to exist. Which is why when newcomers—humans—arrived on our planet, my people stole many of their females to breed. None survived.
I crave nothing for my kit but to live in peace. After a small group of us left our former tribe and created a new village, we have allied with our former enemies to achieve that peace. But then Sorin meets Iris, a human female newly arrived on our planet, and becomes fascinated with her.

All Krijese have known is war. Between battles and the disease that ravaged our population, we have almost ceased to exist. Which is why when newcomers—humans—arrived on our planet, my people stole many of their females to breed. None survived.
I crave nothing for my kit but to live in peace. After a small group of us left our former tribe and created a new village, we have allied with our former enemies to achieve that peace. But then Sorin meets Iris, a human female newly arrived on our planet, and becomes fascinated with her.

Then I meet Sorin’s father. After hearing how their species murdered humans, he terrifies me. The more I’m around them, though, the more I realize my fears are unfounded.
When Kala offers me a mating of convenience and what may be my only chance at becoming a mother, I accept. Before long, it’s not just the child I want, but also his father. Now I have to convince him love is worth any risk.
