Tamingtabitha (2014)
“The mating ritual wasn’t a new or complex one. A female Seer reached fertile age, her body ripening like fruit on a vine. Once she’d gained full maturity, instinct drove her to run—literally—and only the male destined for her could catch and claim her. Regardless of the simplicity implied by the race, it only guaranteed the woman would find a man biologically suitable and thereby perfect to continue their species. A year after the Seer was claimed, she’d become ready for seed to implant, bringi...ng rise to the next generation of their kind.
Suitable didn’t mean happy. Biology didn’t care whether or not a couple made sense out of bed. She’d seen women mated to men who spent their lives with lips compressed in dislike until their hunter touched them and hormones drove away logic. She’d met men married by destiny to women they loathed, but couldn’t resist.
Their kind, the Seers, had formed their ways back when the stars were newly hung in the sky and had solidly clung to them, even though the rest of the world would find them more than archaic.MoreLess
