"I will always protect you" Read a Weekend Writing Warriors excerpt from RET

Hello everyone! Thank you to everyone who visited me last weekend! I'm back to share another snippet from RET, my most recent release.

Snippet setup: Last weekend's snippet showed Ret conversing with Ilam and trying to understand him, but failing. And he may have admitted a couple times that he found Ilam attractive. I skipped ahead in their conversation a bit more, leaving out the parts where they talk about their favorite and least favorite holo-movies they've watched as a team. Enjoy!

Ret set the bottle down and leaned slightly closer to me. “Now, what’s one we haven’t watched that you want to?”

My heart raced with him that much nearer, and I had to really concentrate to come up with an answer. I tried to recall all the titles I hadn’t had a chance to watch because we were often practicing. “From Planet 713.”

Ret raised his eyebrows. “You would watch that? It’s a bit gory. Maybe too scary for you.”

**And a bit more...

I crossed my arms and pouted. What did he know about what I was afraid of? “I’m not only a fan of romance, you know. I like to be scared. Gives me a weaker version of the rush I get when racing.”

Ret nodded with a smile. “I get it. But if you’re ever too scared, you can come see me.” His voice softened. “I’ll protect you. Always.”

RET
Kaddim Brothers book three

​Ret Kaddim has the perfect life. He’s a space racer, the leader of the most popular team across the universe. Always planning, practicing, and racing, he has no time for a relationship, but finds plenty of willing partners who agree to his one-night-only rule. Because there is no way he wants to end up in a relationship and stuck with a family like his younger brothers. He’s having too much fun for that.
 
Ilam Nairan always dreamed of becoming a space racer. And thanks to a chance encounter with a retired racer, he is now living that dream. Far away from the mated and pregnant omega life his parents wanted him to have, he loves everything about his life. It’s perfect.
 
But one night can change everything. Especially when too much alcohol is involved. Can these two teammates survive the resulting media storm? What will it mean for their careers? The future of the team? And for them?
 
Ret is a sweet with knotty heat mm non-shifter mpreg sci-fi romance featuring an alpha space racer and an omega space racer who both believe they’ll always be single, snarky but loveable teammates, lots of space racing, endearing family members, an adorable baby, and a guaranteed happily ever after. If you enjoy teammates realizing they have feelings for each other, and all the obstacles those bring, be sure to download Ret today!
