Publisher Description
In this sequel to the novella, "Inside the Blue Cube," Lyla Wilder is faced with a life-or-death dilemma. Diagnosed with a serious illness, her best option for a cure is offered to her by her former abductor, Aram – an alien hybrid who previously held her captive in a cell that resembled a glowing blue cube. To receive this so-called miracle cure, however, Lyla must return with him to his moon, Siguin, known throughout the galaxy for its scientific research and experimentation…on other species.
Feeling desperate, she reluctantly agrees to go with him, even though she knows if her decision turns out to be a mistake, she will be trapped aboard his ship and at his mercy for over a month.
The flight is fraught with problems. Faced with resentment and prejudice from the crew, declining health and an enemy on board who is plotting against her, Lyla begins to depend on Aram more and more for support and protection. But the closer the two of them become, the more she questions his true motives for convincing her to return to Siguin with him.
Despite her reservations, Lyla cannot deny what her heart is feeling when she realizes she is falling in love with Aram….and it frightens her even more than her illness…or the Malum – a violent, mutant species on Siguin.
