Will update as I go most likely. Yes there are pictures.

a pic to drool over. Look inside for a surprise.

(Completed on here) (Will be going over to fix things now) When aliens arrive on Earth, they don't bring war. They bring choice. Nathaniel Cross is a human guard assigned to protect an alien commander during first contact. Caelion Threx Aurel is powerful, controlled, and bound by laws of consent and restraint that terrify the governments trying to manage him. Among Caelion's species, bonding is biology. A bonded human gains protection, accelerated healing, and survival beyond normal limits. It's permanent. It's voluntary. And it changes everything. Nate is human. Unbonded. Fragile by alien standards. As protests turn violent, politics fracture, and desire becomes impossible to ignore, Caelion must balance duty against instinct, while Nate is forced to decide whether he wants safety, autonomy, or the truth about what the alien sees when he looks at him. This is a story about power without coercion, desire without ownership, and two beings navigating attraction in a world watching their every move. It's not about conquest. It's about what happens when survival, consent, and want collide-and no one looks away.
