I escape Mothership Marst in a pod, but I dont stay with the other women. Im caught in a dust devil and thrown far into the desert. No one comes for me, so I set out on my own. Ive been hitching rides on Solcrue vessels, looking for my sister. This is nothing new. But now, Im confident Im being followed....

Esthi
I escape Mothership Marst in a pod, but I dont stay with the other women. Im caught in a dust devil and thrown far into the desert. No one comes for me, so I set out on my own. Ive been hitching rides on Solcrue vessels, looking for my sister. This is nothing new. But now, Im confident Im being followed. I fear they know who I am.
Just as the squad of Solcrue approaches my position, a team of Titans confronts them. Im caught in the crossfire until a shield appears out of nowhere, ratcheting up from the dirt and into a cocoon of metal that protects me. The Titans push the battle away but dont return for us, leaving me alone with the mostly buried CyberTitan named Armor, who has a voice like thunder.
He protected me when he didnt even know me, a gesture uncommon to me in recent years. I dig and scrape to break him free. There are many more like him that we free, though Armor is more than enough Titan for me.
I hope the word Armor receives of a ship leaving Ellipsis is true. And I really hope they dont forget us. I still havent found my sister. She might be on their ship. Then again, being stranded on a planet with hunky Titan, Armor, doesnt sound so bad.
Armor
For many years, I have hibernated in this dust like my Brothers. I can hear some of them, but I fear for the rest. Esthis arrival is unexpected. She is small but works diligently to get me up and running again. I have never seen a human fight so hard to save a Titan before. I am indebted to her and dreaming of things I shouldnt. I cant help it. I must be broken. Titans are forbidden from fraternizing with humans.
Together, we free my Brothers only to be forced to run from Solcrue and Cyborg Security Patrol soldiers. So much has happened in the years weve been buried. The single enemy ship I remember has turned into four, plus a massive fleet of berserkers and skysprinters that are eager to rip us to shreds for surviving their galactic domination.
Luckily, we arent as alone as we thought. There are rebels like Esthi on our side. Ill do anything to keep her safe and get our Brothers and Sisters off this wretched world for good. I havent tasted freedom for long, but Im certain that a future with Esthi is worth fighting and even dying for.
A steamy, one-love, fast-love, science fiction romance with cursing, violence, and action.
