The Human Veteran Expected a Companion — But Found a Terrified Alien Princess Waiting in a Cage Inst

Описание: #audiobook #scifistories #alienwoman
When retired human veteran Marcus Webb enters what he believes is an ethical companionship program, he discovers a system that uses bureaucratic language to sanitize trafficking. The "willing partner" he was promised is actually Princess Lyria Sethara—a Vel'karian woman whose family abandoned her after a failed political arrangement, allowing station authorities to exploit her powerlessness. Finding her terrified and caged, Marcus refuses the contract and fights bureaucracy to free her, risking his own benefits to get her legitimate asylum. His consistent refusal to exercise the authority the system tried to give him allows Lyria to gradually trust again and rebuild her life on her own terms. This scifi stories audiobook explores how individual moral courage can challenge systemic exploitation, proving that true strength lies not in possessing power over others but in refusing to accept their dehumanization—even when that refusal comes at personal cost.
