How I Helped My Smokin' Hot Alien Girlfriend Conquer the Empire

Life was good. I was captain of a cruiser in the Combined Corporate Fleets. Master of my own destiny. As much as you can be master of your own destiny living under the Terran Corps. Then it all came crashing down. A simple mission to roust a livisk invasion fleet from a planet human colonists had rightly stolen went bad. Long story short I sort of got captured by the alien hottie I kinda disgraced at that aforementioned colony world battle and taken back to her world as her prisoner. Only I didn’t get thrown into the reclamation mines with the rest of my crew. No, for some reason I’ve intrigued my alien captor. For some reason she’s keeping me close by in her luxurious skyscraper surrounded by her personal army. For some reason I kinda like it. Especially after I discover her species has warrior pairs who psychically bond, and we accidentally pulled the whole permanent mind meld thing. Which shouldn’t be possible between human and livisk. Oops. Now I have a new mission in life. Free my crew from the mines and figure out what’s going on with me and my alluring alien captor. The only problem? It turns out her love language is conquest! It won’t be easy. There’s a mad empress trying to kill us, nobles plotting around us, a crew to rescue, an empire to overthrow, and maybe if I play my cards right a wedding to plan. On a world where wedding planners think trial by single combat is a perfectly reasonable way to deal with a bridezilla! Who knew it would take getting captured by humanity’s mortal enemies to find true love?
