Alien Captain's Claimed Bride

Being the only female on a ship full of hot dragon warriors would be a dream come true for most women. StacyIf it weren't for all the wounded pouring into her med-center, Stacy might enjoy the novelty of being surrounded by so many admiring dragon males but the trauma eclipses it. Even a heads up when a battle was brewing would help. However their taciturn captain leaves much to be desired when it comes to communication. Primed to give him a piece of her mind, he offers himself for punishment for his oversight. The poignant reminder of the abuse he'd suffered at the hands of his former queen melts her anger. Guard down she has to admit the big, scarred captain is attractive. Protecting her heart is going to be a nearly impossible task. MericDraconian queens are deceitful, vicious and thought nothing of digging their claws into a warrior when least expected. Having been a breeder for ten long solars, Meric knows too well. Draconian females are hosts for parasites that feed on pain. They lull a male into a false sense of security then unleash horrible physical and emotional abuse. Humans are unlike them. They seem open, outgoing and almost innocent compared to Draconian queens. There is no arguing that they're clever and intelligent beings, but Meric harbors reservations. He guards himself until he is sure they aren't more skilled at deception. Especially the lovely healer who insisted on joining his crew. Meric knows that he spends too much time thinking of her. It takes all his discipline as a warrior not to follow her with his eyes and run when she needs assistance. He refuses to become enamored with another cruel female, albeit one wrapped in a beautiful package.
