She spins lies for a living. He is the truth she can't avoid. The galaxy just forced them into the ultimate compromise.Fleur Neria is the Voice of Eterna, a diplomatic liaison who has built her life on charm, deflection, and perfect masks. In the glittering neutral zone of the Sky City, she navigates treacherous politics with a smile that never reaches her eyes. She doesn't do real connections; she does strategic alliances.Governor Tiran is her opposite: a Xylian bred for absolute duty and stoic perfection. He sees emotions as liabilities and protocol as scripture. For years, he has watched Fleur from a distance, disapproving of her chaos while secretly cataloging every detail of her existence. He is cold, efficient, and utterly untouchable-until a brutal Draken attack shatters their neutrality.Trapped together in the crumbling infrastructure of a dying city, a dormant "Unity Imperative" snaps into place, binding them in a biological mating bond that demands total surrender. Suddenly, the Governor who despises inefficiency is willing to burn the world to keep Fleur safe, and the Diplomat who never loses control is desperate for his touch. To activate the station's ancient defense grid and save thousands, they must achieve perfect synchronization-a fusion of mind and body that requires stripping away every lie they've ever told.Diplomacy has failed. Instinct has taken over. And the only way out is through each other.
