A Star Trek-inspired slow-burn queer romance about forbidden longing, political intrigue, and finding unexpected gravity among the stars.
Dr. Kaelen Drix spent his career charting the stars, not his heart. As Chief Physicist aboard the USS Caelestis, he thrives on order and precision. Until a diplomatic envoy beams aboard, bringing secrets, politics, and Soryn, a young attaché whose quiet grace hides deeper edges.
With the Caelestis embarking on a five-year mission through contested space, Drix finds himself drawn into Soryn's orbit. Tensions rise between factions, ambassadors, and crew alike. Every glance carries weight, every touch has consequences, and some connections could compromise the mission itself.
