Alien Lord's Captive


Risa Rills - 2016
    In fact, Marie Cassidy was prepared for none of this…. Up until two days ago, the curvy woman had thought she had landed her dream job. Now, in orbit around Planet Venari with no contact from her employer, Marie feels more alone than ever. But, ending up a warp jump guinea pig and the world’s least prepared ambassador to an alien planet is the least of her problems now… With her height coming up to the shoulder of the average Venarian, Marie sees no hope of escape when these barbarians seem to be interested in nothing more than having their way with her. But, what makes her whimper is a single touch of Garin, the Alien Lord and clearly one of the most feared men on this planet. He is shaking. And in the backs of his eyes, Marie senses a sudden, ferocious joy that she cannot understand. The moment he isn’t acting like an ass, she can feel how something in her wants him. Sure, the muscular hunk looks good, smells good. His touch is strangely comfortable. She loves to hear him talk, that velvet voice like a panther speaking... But, his attitude and his impatient demands have already ruined everything for Marie. Or, is it really what it is? So why is it that she still craves his touch and only wants more of the Handsome Monster? Reader Note: 18+ Only!
