WPD: Ahl

It’s been six years since the Alien War, when the Gwa showed up to save Earth from the attacking Vokko. When the humans eventually came out of hiding, the Gwa remained, and the Vokko were nowhere to be seen...or so they thought. But just because you can’t see it doesn’t mean it’s not there, watching, waiting.

Vokko attacks are on the rise again, the human race is in danger, and the Gwa have a plan. Though they’ve studied old movies and TV shows, they don’t actually know much about humans, so their idea is to team up with them to battle the Vokko. And Detective Darika Dailey is the lucky guinea pig to test out their new strategy first.

At first Darika doesn’t trust the Gwa, Ahl, who has been assigned as her new partner, even after he takes on the visage of someone very dear to her from her past. But Ahl grows on her, and the partnership is working, and she’s quickly becoming attached. They both have the same mission in life—to protect and serve. How much time will they have together? How long before Ahl reaches his true death?

However long it is, it won’t be long enough for her.
