DESTRUCTION by Kallista Dane and Kate Richards

Menace fills the skies.

Hadeon

We were the sole survivors of the destruction of our planet Arythios. A squadron of warriors adrift in space with nowhere to go and, worse, no females left alive to carry on our race.

The Interstellar Federation rejected our plea for sanctuary. Instead, one of their leaders sent us a ship filled with naked comatose women.

A gift from the people of Earth, his message read. They will see to the needs of your men. He called them willing, but we soon learned they had been kidnapped. To our great good fortune, they stayed with us and became loving mates to a handful of warriors blessed by Fate. After we defeated the Rydek and found a new home, Earth’s new chancellor created the Centauri Brides program, sending groups of willing females to this beautiful planet.

Working hand in hand with our Brides we established a settlement and turned our attention to peaceful pursuits. New homes graced the forests and hillsides to shelter the offspring we created, children of Centauri we hoped would carry on the best of their Arythian-Terran heritage. A Bride was even now aboard ship, on her way to join me on this beautiful, rainbow-colored world.

And…we let our guard down.

By the time the immense ship loomed in our skies, it was too late to correct our mistakes. Now we’ll have to fight to keep our world from destruction. If the enemy wins, there will be no more Centauri children born.

Because we, the surviving Arythian warriors, will lay down our lives before we let the Rydek destroy our home again. And our courageous Brides will fight by our sides.

Except for mine. She is not here – and I fear she never will be.

I never thought I’d leave Earth. Not even for one of the “tourists in space” expeditions, which were far beyond my modest means. But when my boyfriend dumped me for my cousin, my company shut down, and I couldn’t find another job for my limited skill set, I had to consider other options. At least in the employment realm.

When I overheard a neighbor talking about a “scandalous” program trading sex for space travel, I welcomed the distraction and looked it up online. To my surprise, the Centauri Brides program was not that at all, but a chance for somebody like me to make a fresh start in every way. A new life on a paradise across the galaxy, far away from my cheating ex and the landlord leaving messages about eviction.

Sign me up.
