The Stowaway Mate (Alien Erotica) / Alien Erotica (ePub)

Desperate to escape her slave master, Maia stows away on a cargo ship, only to be discovered by the disgruntled alien crew. When one alien goes into heat, claiming her as his mate, she faces the choice to stay or go back to her life as a slave. If she stays, she'll need to help the devil-like alien through his heat. Maia keeps an eye out for any opportunity to reclaim her freedom but slowly develops feelings for the first alien to treat her like an equal.
The moment Levix catches the alluring fragrance of the petite human woman, he realizes with certainty that she is his Mate. His heat takes over his body and mind and only she can help him.
When Levix's heat is over and the opportunity arrives, will Maia choose freedom or her Mate?

Excerpt:
Levix cocked his head to the side but didn't come any closer. "You want to touch me?" his voice was low, and almost menacingly, as if he was trying to scare me, but instead of feeling scared, more arousal coursed through me.
"Well, yes. That is why I am here, right? To help you with your heat."
Levix took a step closer but still held my wrist back with his tail. "Why aren't you scared of me?"
I shrugged and looked at him with a smile. "Should I be? Are you going to hurt me?"
I've had plenty to be scared of in the past years, but something inside of me said that Levix wasn't one of those things. He looked frightening, and powerful, as if he could snap me like a twig, but his eyes told a different story. One of longing and loneliness. A story that I could understand all too well.
"Never," Levix said.
That one word encompassed so much that I didn't feel like I had a fitting response to it. I just nodded and patted his tail. A strangled groan came from his throat when I touched it.
