Hunted By Alyth

Run. Climb. Fall—because in the Mate Hunt, there’s no escaping the tide.

I signed away thirty days of my life for credits. Enough to buy freedom for my family.
Now I’m trapped on a storm-tossed world of jagged islands and coral towers, forced to run from a hunter who owns the sea itself.

Aylth is water and shadow, scaled strength and grasping tentacles. He waits in the surf, follows through the reefs, coils around me whenever I think I’m safe. He doesn’t chase like the others—he pulls me under. Holds me tight. Forces me to admit how badly I want the capture I swore I’d resist.

Every wave drags me closer.
Every touch leaves me shaking.
Every moment in his grasp, my body learns to crave the monster I was meant to fear.

I tell myself I’ll never surrender.
But the tide doesn’t ask permission.
And neither does desire.

A scorching sci-fi romance featuring storm-lashed cliffs, primal tentacles, and a heroine who discovers that sometimes the only way to survive the Hunt… is to fall for the alien who refuses to let her go.
