Cinderella's Spaceship

Rafaela grew up in the Cinder Sector of the outer belts, an isolated region that her step mother and step sisters can't bear. She's eligible to enter the Prince's race, if she can get her mother's old scout ship repaired in time, but she also needs to discover what her mother really left behind. Prince Brendan needs to catch a bride that he can trust. He was born with Corporate records written into his genes in a Solar System brewing with political strife. He bets his future on a race, but will he find out what this Cinder girl's family is tangled up in? With interstellar travel still confined below the speed of light, the vast majority of humanity now carries the extra pair of chromosomes packed with an inheritance of genetic memories. Those who don't carry the extra genes have been disregarded for centuries. Humanity needs to let go of the past in order to expand their future. Will a young woman, a young man, and a dragon be able to forge a brighter future between two stars? Cover redesigned by Bloom759, face based off Artflow.ai generation. --- On hold because I'm getting the shattered shunt removed finally! (The list of possible complications is a bit scary, but not compared to living with my brain fluid leaking out.)

 The King followed up his pronouncement that Brendan would destroy Jade Corp if the old man didn't cooperate by nodding toward Lief, as he pointed out, "As you've seen, my children trust me. They are each quite capable of acting very quickly and efficiently, unlike yours."

Lief felt like he was in shock, and hoped that he was keeping it hidden from the sharp eyed old man with a face full of wrinkles and lines. His own father's familiar and bland face looked just as friendly and neutral as usual, despite having just ordered him to kill a corporation head. Even before outlining the plan, Regis had insisted that if he was filling his mother's place, that he must be willing to go just as far as the Queen would, and he had agreed.
