The Curiosity Shoppe

Cajun Zebadiah LaCroy is a long way from home. Infected with a bad case of wanderlust, Zeb's been working on an intergalactic merchant ship. He's seen all manner of strange worlds and stranger beings. When his ship docks at Station Janus, Zeb searches for a gift for his sister back home and finds more than he bargained for. Come and see, a female voice calls telepathically to him. Never one to be able to deny his innate curiosity, Zeb can't resist. He's caught in her spell.

When he finally sees her, hears her say his name, Zeb knows Semele is telling him the truth. They are bonding exclusively to each other. For the bonding to be complete, they must mate. The only thing is, she's not quite human.
