Bay's Mercenary [Unearthly World Book 1] - Plot & Excerpts
She was sitting on the furniture fixture she called a couch. She called the furniture fixture in his room a bed, and though she knew what drawers were, she also called the furniture fixture that held them a dresser. Her words in her language were interesting, and the way she spoke in her own tongue, he knew she wasn’t making things up as she went along. But it was odd how she gave a name to the fixtures—as though they were real, live objects. Bay finished the food she was eating—she called it yogurt; he didn’t have the heart to tell her it was baby food. She ate some of their normal food, but not all, and supplemented her diet with the creamy substance and another substance they gave to older children who were still teething. She named it beef jerky, except it was made from the flesh of a being called a zat. When Zane described a zat, Bay told him except for having three eyes and being a deep indigo, it sounded like a cow—whatever the hell that was. Her smile made his heart thump.
