Breathing Vapor – Mother’s Day Snippet

By Cynthia Sax on May 9, 2018

Mother’s Day in North America is on Sunday. I thought we’d celebrate this week by looking back at some of the Mother-themed moments in my stories.

Today’s excerpt is from Breathing Vapor and is a nod to all of the wonderful adopted Moms in Romanceland.

***

“Some of the cyborgs will be freed from planets besieged by war.” Vapor’s voice grew gruff with emotion. “There could be humanoid offspring on these planets. They might not have parents to care for them.”

Mira lifted her head. “That’s possible.”

What was he suggesting? It couldn’t be what she thought, hoped, dreamed. Her heart beat faster. They hadn’t discussed offspring since they left Tau Ceti. She’d accepted that she might never be a mother, had concentrated on the two of them, on helping all cyborgs escape.

Vapor set her feet on the floor. He slipped his right hand into one of his holsters, scooped out some cloth, and pressed it into her palms.

Mira smoothed the fabric and her breath hitched. It was a doll, constructed of scrap material, formed with binding. The face was crudely drawn, the eyes lopsided, the smile uneven.

Her rough tough warrior had crafted this toy. He was talking about offspring. Hope unfurled in Mira’s chest.

“What is this?” She had to be certain she wasn’t misunderstanding his meaning.

“It’s an Ulu.” Vapor shifted his weight from his right foot to his left. He looked down at the doll, not meeting her gaze. “We’ll give it to the offspring.”

“To the offspring?”

“To our offspring.” He touched the doll’s garment. His fingers shook. Her normally confident cyborg was nervous. That’s how much this conversation meant to him.

Vapor is the most advanced cyborg the Humanoid Alliance has ever developed. He’s a finely honed weapon, a warrior without parallel, half man and half machine. No lock can contain him. No being can stop him. Whatever he wants, he takes.

He wants Mira Breazeal, the Designer’s daughter.

She’s his one temptation, his sexy target. Vapor shouldn’t crave her caresses, steal her kisses, make her scream with ecstasy. The cyborgs want her dead and they would question his loyalty if he didn’t kill her. The humans would shoot him on sight if he dared to touch her.

Their love is forbidden. Their desire could be lethal. One human and one cyborg will risk everything for a moment of passion.

Seeking Vector

A cyborg with a secret… A female seeking the truth…

Vector, the C Model captain of the Freedom, is a cyborg many warriors wish to emulate. He fights fiercely, leads with honor, has earned the respect and loyalty of his crew. But no being, not even a cyborg, is perfect. Since arriving at the Homeland, Vector has been hiding a dark truth about his past. If his secret is exposed, he could lose everything – his position, his ship, and his life.

Kasia excels at uncovering secrets. Half a lifespan ago, her curiosity placed her on the Humanoid Alliance’s kill list. Now she has accessed information the cyborg council would prefer remain hidden. Their warriors are hunting her and won’t rest until she’s dead.

When Vector arrives on her battle station, all grim determination, gray skin, and bulging muscles, Kasia knows he has been sent to kill her. That doesn’t stop her from wanting the dominant cyborg. She senses the savage nature under the male’s controlled exterior, sees the mysteries in his brilliant blue eyes, craves the roughness of his touch. She will risk all she has to experience his embrace.

Kasia braved the cyborg council’s ire for a reason. If she doesn’t convince Vector to act on the information she uncovered, the enemy could destroy his home planet and render every cyborg in the universe immobile.

Can a doubting C Model warrior learn to trust and to love before it is too late?

Seeking Vector is Book 10 in the Cyborg Sizzle series and is a STAND-ALONE story.
It is also a Cyborg SciFi Romance.
