    About this ebook

    Aerospace engineer Missy Caine is far too busy with her research to bother with men. No one she's dated can keep up with her intelligence and drive anyway. She prefers to spend her time working on building a new trans-space drive.

    The last thing she expects is to be kidnapped by hugely tall and muscled Mal-Tunak. 

    Mal is Prince of the Actabarans. He is a Lord of Astria, a sexy warrior guardian of the galaxy and defender of Earth. He claims kidnapping her was an accident and he meant all along to ask her to be his bride.

    The Dark Nebulans threaten the peace of the universe and Mal will do anything to win Missy, the chosen human woman of his heart. Even risk his own life.

    This is a fun and quick romantic short read.

      Mated to the Alien King - Juno Wells

      CHAPTER ONE

      So, Abby says looking up from her salmon with an ear-to-ear grin. When are you going to 'settle' down? She arches her eyebrow just like our mother.

      Laughter bursts out. I cover my mouth quickly to keep from spraying food across the table and embarrassing myself in front of the other restaurant guests. This, of course, is hilarious to her.

      Seriously, have you been practicing that in front of a mirror? I ask.

      Oh you know, an innate talent to channel Mom. She asks me every week if I think you're going to find a 'nice young man' to settle down with. Preferably, you know, rich, handsome, and of course well hung.

      Hung? I chuckle. "I'm sure Mom says that."

      Oh yes, absolutely. Mom's very concerned about the manhood of your prospective mate that doesn't, you know, exist.

      I've been busy-

      Avoiding men, she interjects.

      With work! And hey, it's not like you've settled down with Mr. Right.

      Ah, but I'm the baby of the family. Privileges come with that.

      She's right. Mom and Dad dote on her. I can't deny it but I do it too. I love my little sister. Her cherubic face, infectious smile, and bright shiny green eyes fill me with warmth. She's my best friend as well as my sister.

      Must be nice, I snort.

      You have no idea! she laughs. But seriously, how is the love life?

      Non-existent to be honest.

      No one? When's the last time you went on a date?

      It makes me sad that I have to actually think about it. When was the last time I went out? Her frown deepens as I try to remember.

      Well…

      Yeah. Too long if you have to think about it.

      I've been seriously busy with work.

      Look, I know you're like this super-genius and doing all that science-y stuff but there's more to life than trying to create the next… whatever the hell it is you work on.

      Trans-space drives, I fill in for her.

      Sure, whatever that is.

      It's an engine that will allow us to travel to other planets.

      Yeah, super genius techno-babble. So anyway my dear Star Trekker you still need to, you know, get a man. One here on Earth preferably. One who you can-

      She fills out the sentence by holding her closed hands out in front of her and moving them and the lower half of her body below the table in a circle. She looks ridiculous so I laugh
