    One with countless accolades behind him.Now, he’s been relegated to oversee the Debiraan Embassy on Earth, a planet whose humans are ungrateful and ignorant of the risk they’d faced had he and his people not saved them from the threat of the Baza.The only good that had come of it, and he used that term loosely, was that these humans were reproductively compatible with his species, offering his fellow Debir’s hope that whatever the Baza had done to dwindle their population could be overcome.Still, he has no desire for such things, or worse...to find his huerta -his other half-, something all Debirs long for and cherish above all else.He isn’t sure what’s worse: that he found his huerta...or that she’s human.Such a thing should not be possible. Yet, the more he tries to deny it, the stronger the pull towards her, and he’s losing the battle to keep himself away.LeilaThe Debir had invaded Earth. Well, that’s what people said anyways.
