Leisha, a human female, is a non-commissioned officer on a S.U.N. scout ship. The young, rescued alien ticks all her boxes. Older than Bantan, she's happy to further his education.

A young alien genius, Bantan S'kan, has no experience with females and is bitter over his kidnapping by pirates. He's out to do as much damage to the pirates as he can. Then he meets her.

Leisha's family summons her home. She leaves the ship and Bantan. The Arkalian doesn't take rejection well. S.U.N. needs him, but he needs Leisha. Can he hurt the pirates without losing his life? How can he have a life with Leisha, and keep the pirates and S.U.N. from finding them?
