Welcome back to Charybdis Station!

Fire may be a deadly Crellic Element, but he much prefers napping and snacking to murdering armies. After centuries of being used as a weapon, he's finally able to live peacefully on Charybdis Station. While he's content to spend his days visiting his friends and raiding their homes for food, he longs for one more thing. A mate to call his own.

A trip to the nearby planet of Burnished Outpost gives him far more than he planned on.

Quigley lives in a narrow-minded clan in the deep desert of Burnished Outpost. His days are spent hunting for survival, guarding his family from the rest of the clan, and hiding a secret that could get him killed. When everything goes wrong and he finds himself on the run, all he can hope for is to live long enough to get his family to safety. When the most amazing being he has ever seen swoops in to save the day, Quigley knows he's found his mate.

The two men may be fated mates, but the differences between them are striking. Can Quigley adjust to a new life on Charybdis Station and can Fire find his place in his brand new family?
