"At the Mercy of Her Pleasure"

Senth, a master thief of the Thieves' Guild, undertakes his most dangerous mission: stealing from the ruthless Empress to secure his brother's freedom. He must ally with the by-the-book rebel captain, NarrAy, whose intoxicating pheromones threaten to unravel his focus. As they infiltrate the Empress's stronghold, Senth finds himself irresistibly drawn to NarrAy. Her presence ignites a hunger he struggles to contain, knowing one misstep could cost his brother's life. For NarrAy, the stakes escalate. Duty comes before desire. But as a Better, her pheromones enchant. Yielding to her desires jeopardizes the mission her parents died for and hands a prototype transporter to the Empress. Yet, with each stolen glance and fleeting touch, duty and desire blur. Can they complete their mission without succumbing to temptation? Or will their undeniable chemistry plunge them into chaos? A workplace happy ever after sci fi romance (with forced proximity, age gap). See trigger warnings at the top of my website menu. Be aware: My writing delves into the shadows, weaving intense emotion with an undercurrent of lurking danger, but ends in a happy ever after.
