War Brides
Trinh: Several months ago, I was lying in a hospital bed, slowly dying from cancer, when a man showed up to offer me a deal. An alien race called the Cerasteans had lost all of their women and were in danger of dying out. It turns out that they are compatible with human women. Lucky us! If I agreed to join their Bride Program, the aliens could use their technology to save my life.
Now here I am on an alien spaceship living my best life. What can I say? They made me an offer I couldn’t refuse. When I got healthy again, I vowed to live every day to the fullest. The biggest surprise has been how much I love living carefree on an alien spaceship, the worries of my old life left behind. Each day is filled with amazing new friends and plenty of adventure. The only dark spot in my days is a stick-in-the-mud, rule-loving alien who always seems to be out to ruin my fun. What’s wrong with wanting to take care of my girls and have a little fun along the way?
L’Corte: As the Director of the Bride Program, it is my critical duty to make sure the human bride volunteers on our ship are safe, secure and thriving in their new lives. It is a job I take seriously, and I am proud of my work. Everyone respects my authority and position on the ship. Everyone, except for one bride volunteer who believes that rules are made to be broken and regulations are easily-defeated obstacles. How can Trinh not understand that regulations are in place for everyone’s safety and vital to a smoothly-operating system?
With war on the horizon, will Trinh and L’Corte be able to find common ground in order to plan a… giant wedding for all the new war brides? As they find a new understanding of one another through the shared goal of helping their people, sparks start to fly between these two polar opposite people.
