La pareja formada por Rukh y Harlow es una de mis favoritas de las que ha creado Ruby Dixon, y Rukhar es mi niño preferido de la tribu, me encanta su personalidad, asi que no es sorpresa que este breve relato me haya gustado tanto como lo hizo, es simplemente encantador leer sobre Rukhar y su padre.

3.5 Estrellas!

Rukhar’s bedtime story. Ah it made me get a little teary. 🥹 Harlow fell asleep during story time so he goes to Rukh to finish it (or start a new one, well the only one he tells). And it is the story of how he grew up and wasn’t happy until he met Harlow. Ah such good feels. Love them!

Give me more Rukh

I’ll take all the crumbs I can get 😭.

Basically. Harlow’s exhausted from working all day (and being pregnant) that she falls asleep when Rukhar normally gets his bedtime stories, so he naturally goes to his father Rukh 🥹.

Rukh tells him the story of when he was growing up alone with his father and wasn’t really happy until he met his mate (Harlow) 😭

I love how Rukhar knows the story so well

But mostly. I just love Rukh 😭🥹🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

”And you know what the big hunter realizes?” Rukhar asks me. I know this answer. “He realize he happy,” I say softly. “He never happy before he see her.”

“Yes,” Rukhar says with a yawn, pleased with the story as always. “And now he is happy forever. And they have a son and another son on the way and they live in the ancestor’s cave.”

“Could be girl,” I suggest. “I like a sister for you.”
…

He nods and reaches for my hand, giving it a childish squeeze before he closes his eyes to go to sleep.

My heart hurts with how much happy is in it, and I realize I am smiling.

This is a very short story about Ruhk putting his son Rukhar to bed.

It's a story of how Rukh grew up and found his mate. Super cute!!

A SciFi Alien Serial Romance by Ruby Dixon is good. Not sure what to say but Sci Fi, blue alien erotica. Apparently, it is a thing and apparently, I like it. I am not sure how I stumbled upon Ruby and her books, but I love it and am rereading thewhole series and het other series.

Humans being abducted by aliens and badly mistreated only to find themselves crashed on an alien planet with other aliens. It makes for an interesting read where there are mates, language barriers, horned horney blue aliens and a severe lack of women. It is fun and witty and at times heartbreaking, but it is certainly something different and I now find myself strangely addicted.

Siento tanta empatía por Rukh a veces. Cuando se porta como un tonto no, pero odio que haya tenido que sufrir tanto y entiendo por qué es tan protector. Adoro la idea de que Rukhar aprecie de corazón todo lo que tiene y lo afortunado que es (menos por su madre a punto de morirse, claro) y me encantan las mezclas de personalidad que salen de ambos padres y se ven reflejadas en sus hijos. Es una cosa tan linda. Sin duda espero más de estas pequeñas historias porque son muy muy agradables de leer.

Listened on Youtube. Found the link on the FB group, Ruby Dixon-Blue Barbarian Babes. Sweet little novella about Rukh telling his son the only bedtime story he knows, everything he remembers about growing up with his dad before he died when he was 6 and then meeting Harlow.

[Rina ♡ · Rating 2 out of 5]

This was not as cute as the first one but it's still a nice slice of life. Honestly I found it kind of weird that Rukh wouldn't have taught his son differently. Especially after how sorry he has been about his mistakes of the past.

El libro de Harlow y Rukh es de mis favoritos de la saga, así que cualquier excusa para volver a leer a estos personajes siempre será bienvenida. Este relato es bonito y dulce, después de todo lo que tiene que superar Harlow me ha gustado ver que su vida sigue feliz y sin complicaciones.

Rukh’s bedtime story for little Rukhar, basically how he met his mother ❤️

(this very short story is ment to be between Barbarian's Redemption & Barbarian's Lady)

This is Rukh tucking his son into bed by telling him the story of growing up alone and seeing Harlow and the start of their life together. It works well that’s it’s simplistic in nature for a child, but also following with Rukh’s grasp of language after so long alone.

[Adrya Ribeiro]

O conto sobre o dia a dia da família Harlo e Rukh. Fofinho eles colocando o filho para dormir...nada demais

I love seeing snippets into the IPB tribe, but this bedtime story was... Well, when I hear Ruhk and Harlow's story summed up like that, I'm realizing it's not okay.

Rukr and Harlow are amazing. I miss those two sooo much, it was great to see Rukr talk about how he met Harlow to his son. Brings back a lot of memories 😭❤️
