Carter is the Omega from the Stars. He's magical (probably). Beautiful (definitely). And his exotic name is difficult to pronounce. He's either going to save the fleaf'akhie home world from invaders, or he's an invader himself in disguise, sneaking into the city! One thing is for he chose his mates for battle, not love. Siel is a fabled war hero, fierce and capable. And Pykh? He's the muscle of the group. The brainless barbarian can't even count coins. He's a wild-man from who-knows-where. How can such a family ever conform to fleaf'akhie society? How can Council Leader Ruahyr let such a dangerous group past the gate? Well, he's seven months pregnant with a fleaf'akhie child, so someone has to let him in...
