His Starbound Claim

His Starbound Claim

by B. Luna

“I can feel you. All of you.”

His fingers creep down my body, leaving goosebumps in their wake.

“For millennia, our people have believed in a bond stronger than love. Stronger than life. And I know that’s what this is.” I let out a soft moan as his lips brush my neck.

“And you, Poloma… You are mine. My destiny. My starbound.”

Poloma is a member of a First Nations tribe who believe that each person is blessed with a sacred soulmate called a “Starbound” from birth. She doesn’t believe in the bond.

Until she meets him.
