When what you thought you saw wasn't what you saw
The woman disguised as an Odeergan didn’t turn to acknowledge the opening hiss of the door she’d escaped through, though she was only steps away. Rusp was on her heels in an instant. “Matara?”
As she began to turn toward him, Sherv and Jemi arrived at his side. Both jerked when they saw the Odeergin breathing mask face them.
“Fuck, Rusp! Get away from it!” Sherv grabbed his shoulder and yanked.
Instead, the Nobek grabbed the skirt of the cloak where its closures ended and swept it wide. He was treated to the sight of a pair of undeniably Kalquorian knees and shins. Definitely a woman’s legs.
Except there was something wrong. He realized the skin color was too fair an instant before she slapped his face hard with a gloved hand.
He blinked at the sting and ache of his jaw…she had impressive strength…but his brain was busy noting Odeergins didn’t have five-fingered hands like Kalquorians. Nevertheless, his heart nearly stopped when she grabbed the respirator snout of her headgear and shoved it upward. Jemi screamed, and Sherv yelled in anticipatory horror an instant before her furious face was exposed.
Rusp gaped at the brown eyes with the odd round pupils. She wasn’t a Kalquorian Matara after all. She was an Earther.

His past demons have returned, and only a Kalquorian clan can save him.
Matthew Larsen should be happy.
Reunited with the Nobek he fell in love with years ago, welcomed into a clan
determined to give him a better life, he has everything he never imagined
possible. However, he’s haunted by the hellish past and certainty it will
reclaim him.
Nobek
Kom spent years searching for Matt. Their reunion and his clanmates’ acceptance
of the troubled Earther seemed to be all that stood in the way of the perfect
future. His Earther love isn’t so easily rescued, however. Even a warrior can’t
protect someone against his nightmares.
Dramok Avir and Imdiko Masok are devoted to the beautiful Earther Kom brought home. Loving such a gentle soul isn’t a problem. Saving him from monsters, real and imagined, is another matter when Matt’s worst fears come true and the terrors of the past rise once again to drag him into the abyss.
