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.
