After three years in prison without trial, Amullette is given the opportunity for parole if she agrees to raise a stolen child named Mikaya, as her own. Another condition of parole is marriage to a high-ranking soldier of the Universal. As fate would have it, her selected spouse is her ex-fiancé, Admiral Semaj Kroan. Adjusting to her new life is easier than she expected as she falls in love with Admiral Kroan and adores the little girl the Universal has asked her to raise. However, as Amullette and Kroan begin to build a beautiful life together they risk everything to get Mikaya back where she truly belongs.

Evenous

Amullette awoke in bed alone to a knocking sound. She noted the chill of the room then turned to find a bathrobe and slippers next to the bed. She only barely registered the oddity of having these needs met without asking. 


She could smell food coming from downstairs and began heading in that direction when she heard Kroan speaking with Dr. Kepp. 


“She is still a prisoner,” Dr. Kepp reminded him. 


“Well, I’m not,” he responded. “For the time being, this is my home and I am not letting you barge in and out at your leisure, disturbing me or my wife whenever you want. Dr. Meadow wants us to create a normal environment for the child. So, if you want to speak with my wife you will have to make an appointment like a normal doctor.” His use of the word wife did not escape Amullette. 


“How can I make an appointment? She doesn’t have a com unit,” Dr. Kepp argued. 


“Then get her one, damnit!” Kroan barked. “Don’t come back without one.”
