Umay's Alien Man

Umay’s Alien Man: The Blurb "In a world where everyone sees them as 'excess,' could they become each other's only meaning?" For Umay—one of Earth's forgotten and unwanted daughters—fate didn't choose a fairy-tale ending. Instead, it chose a frozen exile beneath a violet sky. Packaged like a piece of freight by the Company and "returned" to a Maku village at the farthest edge of the universe, she knew only one thing for certain: she wasn't wanted here, either. Avex, the tribe’s living nightmare—a purple-skinned "monster" whose face is a map of scars—received her as nothing more than a burden. When this outcast warrior threw Umay over his shoulder like a stray kitten and dragged her toward the mountain slopes, he expected nothing but hatred to bloom between them. But behind cold stone walls, both are forced to face the ghosts of their pasts. One is a wounded warrior fleeing his mother's ice-cold silence; the other, a stubborn stranger searching for a place to call her own at the edge of the galaxy. As the biting frost sets in, within a stone house at the foot of Mount Yakshir, a terrifying warrior and his "soft" human will discover something beyond mere survival: what it means to belong to someone in a world that never wanted you. Umay’s Alien Man is an epic tale of survival and belonging—a story of two broken souls, cast aside by destiny, who begin to heal by mending each other's wounds.
