Beyond the Red series.
Alien Kora plays new royal-political games, backing "half-blood" (human and alien) Eros for the world's throne. Even with unexpected help from human rebels and from a former-prince bounty hunter, Eros must first convince himself that he wants the title. This second book of a trilogy (Beyond the Red) is a sensitive and poignant exploration of discrimination and the search for one's place in the universe.
