I’m still posting snippets from Rishalt, Book 2 of Taxyon Space. Also, I've switched to a new cover. 
BlurbFollowing the conventions of Warrish society, Kiron’s parents have betrothed him and his brother to young women of superior rank. Kiron’s brother Bassath has shown him pictures of the lovely ladies. As youngsters, the brothers were close companions, but they have grown apart during the four years Kiron served as a Watcher on Europa. You can read last week’s snippet here – https://auroraspringer.blogspot.com/2018/03/lovely-ladies-snippet-from-rishalt-for.html Bassath insinuated, “Have your four years in the masculine enclave of Watchers dulled your appreciation of female company?”Note: Minor abuse of semicolons to fit.
Kiron replied bluntly, “I thank you, but I prefer to choose my own mates.” Would Bassath appreciate his dilemma? He could not decide. As if he suspected the truth, Bassath asked, “What is the source of your reluctance? Why don’t you welcome this match with the beauteous granddaughters of noble Rostras?” “I met an Earther woman in the waters of their moon, Europa.” Kiron stumbled through an explanation, “Saved her from death on the ice; we met in secret; she’s sweet and brave, and she became precious to me.”  “You became intimate with a two-breasted alien?” Bassath groaned, “Oh Kiron, you are worthy of a better mate than a primitive Earther.” He gestured to the images. “Our union with Rostras’s granddaughters offers prestige and resources. If you wish, you can bring your Earther woman to Rishalt; give her a landhouse on Pucklerakt, and slip out to visit her without the knowledge of your legal mate.”
