Love in A Time of Sorrow by Athena Storm

When he took me, he was bloody.
I was broken.
I healed his body.
And he saved my soul.
I did not believe in hope.
The galaxy was cruel.
Kindness was only a means to an end.
No one actually cared.
All I knew was betrayal.
All I looked forward to was death.
And then Tsurk found me.
I was helpless. In a warzone.
He was my protector.
A Soldier of Hope.
And the love of my life.
At first I mocked his cause.
I believed peace was impossible.
I couldn’t see an end to the war.
And yet, when Trsurk walked next to me,
My torture was silenced.
This is the story of my beloved.
An Odex soldier who sacrificed everything.
Who gave everything.
Who left it all on the field.
To rescue me.
Some call him an alien.
Others call him a warrior.
I call him mine.
The man who showed me how to love.
And gave me back the greatest gift in the galaxy.
Hope.
