See Me by Natalie-Nicole Bates ~
Carly Anders is hearing voices in her head. Another one of her kind is
trying to contact her. She knows of the malevolent freaks—others who are
eternal like her and seek out the weak to inflict pain upon. For years, Carly
has held up huge protective walls to keep herself and her secrets safe. Now,
physically and mentally exhausted, Carly needs protection and rest.
She accepts the invitation to visit an internet friend who needs help
appraising a collection of antique photographs.
The situation is not ideal, but Carly hopes a male presence in her life
will deter the determined suitor who haunts her thoughts and dreams.
Daniel Tremont is not what Carly is expecting.
The former funeral director has a secret of his own. Not only is he
eternal like Carly, he is her creation from all those years before—her
abomination she thought she killed.
Daniel has been searching for Carly for years. He knows she is the
piece of his life that he has been missing for so long. Now that he has found
her, he has no intentions of letting her go.

Excerpt
Often she thought about herself, what she had become in life
after her drowning when she was only four.
A mutant. An abomination. A freak.
She knew there were others like her out there in the world
as well. Xander, for example. Even Embree, but Embree was dormant. Carly’s
senses told her that Embree was alive, but she was alone and in a very dark
place.
Just the thought of what might have become of Embree caused
a chill to rise on her skin and she shuddered. Would that happen to her
someday, too?
Maybe Daniel was ‘something else’, as well.
Sometimes she would be walking down the street and her eyes
would connect with a perfect stranger, and she knew by instinct alone they were
different. She knew, and they knew, too. But neither spoke a word. It was in
the eyes. Whether they were like her, she was unsure.
And Daniel had those eyes as well. Eyes that had the ability
to draw her in if she allowed him. Eyes that were an unusual, ethereal pale
blue.
But she didn’t fear him. Although mentally tired, she was
physically strong when threatened. That was Xander’s gift to her. Just one
encounter with him and she was suddenly able to leap higher, run faster than
ever before. If confronted, she was certain she could outmatch her opponent.
Knowing her abilities gave her the confidence that helped her cope alone all of
these years.
Maybe it was a mistake being here. It wasn’t too late to
leave a note of goodbye and leave.
