    Summary

    "What if I help you?" Grace blurts out desperately, sweating even in the coolness of his house as his words finally manage to stop Adrian from storming out.

    "What?" Adrian says after a tense moment.

    "I can prove it to everyone," Grace says, his heart in his throat. "I'll - I'll make you and Rocky the most celebrated couple on Erid. I promise."

    "Stupid human," Adrian hisses. "You would give up your chance for him just like that?"

    "Yes," Grace says hoarsely.

    "Anything for him."

    ***

    Adrian does not like Grace.

    Which sucks, really, since Grace loves Adrian's husband and all.

    Summary

    The more that I think about it, the more I believe in the small possibility that my unfertilized eggs may be safe for Grace to consume. It’s at least worth trying, I resolve, as I watch him cry himself to sleep for the fourth consecutive cycle. His stomach is constricting, growling loudly. He’s been unable to keep the coma slurry from resurfacing once again.

    I can detect his body shutting down. I decide I can't allow this to continue. I won't allow myself to sit by and watch idly as he dies in front of me, like so many others have before him.

    Unfortunately, there is only one method that I can use to procure Eridian eggs for Grace's consumption.

    Summary

    Grace and Rocky survived the trip to Erid. Now, all Grace has to do is live on a planet meant to kill him, charm his best friend's mate, and figure out why all these Eridians keep giving him rocks. Easy right? As long as he doesn't die of scurvy, first.

    Summary

    Grace is always asking me about my mate. “What was he was like when he was young? How did you both meet? What does he act like when I’m not around?” Slightly invasive, personal questions, all of which I find myself answering without hesitation.

    I try to hold back my excitement. It becomes rather clear to me that “best friends” must mean something slightly different for humans.
