frown to her face and threw sadness back into her world. What she’d experienced with Tanner and Will had been beyond description, a fusing of their souls. But would it last once they became human again? Who knew whether what they had would survive when the Fraiquan part of them that spawned the comchi and their joining was wrenched from them.
    Watching the men talking softly, she still saw them as they were, not with the blue skin and jet-black hair of Fraiquans. Perhaps that oddity was because she liked them either way—the handsome Fraiquans she now saw and the humans she also knew. How did they see her? Did the duality of her thoughts mean that there was a bond beyond genetic engineering and that they would crave each other when they were human again?
    Alayna shook her head, deciding only time would answer all her questions. For now, she needed to focus on the mission.
    The door opened and in waddled Betinsa. She wasn’t alone. Two human men followed her into the large classroom, hovering around her as she slowly made her way to the table where Alayna sat.
    Although she didn’t know Betinsa well, Alayna could read faces, and at that moment, Betinsa was in pain. “Are you okay?” Her instructor nodded at the same time the men shook their heads. “You’re in labor, aren’t you?”
    “So it would seem,” Betinsa replied as she awkwardly lowered her body into a chair.
    “Then why are you here?”
    “My question exactly,” the more muscular of the two men asked. His dark hair was cut every bit as short as Will’s had been before his transformation, and his brown eyes mirrored his concern for Betinsa. “Tinsa, you should be in a hospital!”
    The other man had shoulder-length brown hair, and his expression was more guarded—at least it was until Betinsa grimaced. Then his concerned expression matched the one on the first man’s face. “Matt’s right, lamanna. ”
    Betinsa waved away their concern with a flick of her hand. She glanced over to Tanner and Will. “Gentlemen…if you would join us.”
    They took a seat on either side of Alayna, making her heart race, especially when they scooted their chairs a little closer. Damn, but she loved how they acted like besotted adolescents, probably because she didn’t want to be alone out on the shaky limb of attraction.
    Giving them a grin that was followed by a grimace, Betinsa nodded at the men who’d accompanied her. “These are my husbands, Matt Newton”—she inclined her head at the darker man—“and Drake Keller.” She repeated the action with the thinner one.
    Matt reached out to shake each of their hands. “I understand you’re going deep undercover on Fraiqua. Takes a lot of balls.”
    “Sure does,” Drake added. “Fraiqua isn’t at all like Earth. You’re all in for a shock, which I suppose is why Betinsa still feels she should be here with the three of you when she’s giving birth.” He flashed his wife a concerned frown.
    She waved it away again. “I have plenty of time.”
    Alayna looked to Drake. “I understand you’re an ambassador from the United Continents to Fraiqua.”
    “ Was an ambassador,” Drake replied. “I still intervene when they need my help, but since Matt and Betinsa have to travel so much working for E.I.B., I’ve gone into sort of a semi-retirement.” He chuckled. “Not that I’m old enough.”
    “You’re going to be plenty busy with the munchkin,” Matt added. Tossing a grin at Alayna, he said, “Drake’s gonna play stay-at-home daddy for a while. His choice, but we’re all happy with it.”
    “What can I say?” Drake shrugged. “I want to spend time with our little boy.”
    “No one’s complaining,” Matt said, clapping his hand against Drake’s shoulder.
    The notion of Betinsa being married to these men forced Alayna to vent her curiosity. “If you’ll excuse me asking, how did a Fraiquan end up marrying two humans?”
    Matt was the one to answer. “We crashed on one of Fraiqua’s moons.
