Part of the fun for me, when writing Warlord’s Return, was catching up with Kralj, Dita, and the rest of the modified humanoids and their mates in the Refuge
That included Jeden, Vietor and Dialo, Orol and Rhea’s sons (Orol and Rhea’s story is Dark Flight). The winged triplets are physically mature and they are causing SO much trouble. (grins) I love them so much.
Here is a snippet featuring them…
***
“We haven’t gotten stuck in a cave in…” Jeden looked at his brothers. “Has it been eleven planet rotations since you got stuck in that cave on the west side?”
“I wasn’t stuck.” Vietor’s face darkened.
“Dad had to claw away a section of the rock.” Dialo elbowed his brother.
“I merely couldn’t move.” Vietor said that as though there was a difference between the two situations. “It happens.”
“I hope it doesn’t happen often.” Xareni shook her head.
The young males chattered about deadly creatures they’d encountered or had heard about or, in the case of the flying bovine with projectile-shooting horns, she suspected, had imagined.
Arms were punched. Backs were slapped.
It was too much…activity for Xareni. Seeking space and quiet, she drifted away from the youths.
Ariq, carrying Spark, moved with her. “If you’re concerned about them, I have claws.” Her barbarian extended and then retracted his natural weapons. “I can free him…or them.” He glanced back at the males. “We have to assume all three of them have gotten stuck in caves in the past.”
That was a valid assumption. The triplets were flying disasters.

(grins) They add some excitement to an already exciting adventure. Yes, they ARE flying disasters. And I absolutely adore them.
I can’t wait to write the next generation stories, both featuring the modified humanoids’ children and the cyborgs’ offspring.

Warlord’s Return
Ariq is a barbarian warrior seeking a war.
He locates that battle when he meets Xareni.
* * *
Ariq is one of Chamele’s top warriors. A genetic predisposition to fighting, paired with intensive training and experience, has honed the scarred male into an effective killing machine. He loves war, can’t live without combat.
The Succession Wars, however, have finally ended and the Chamele sector is now at peace. Seeking excitement and purpose, the barbarian warrior accompanies his Second to the Refuge, an outlaw settlement on Carinae E. He hopes to locate the battle he’s been craving there.
Ariq finds that conflict and more when he meets his fated mate.
Xareni owes the Ruler of the Refuge a favor. That’s the only reason she has returned to the settlement. She doesn’t like crowds or structures or a certain barbarian warrior who insists on following her everywhere. It doesn’t matter that there’s a connection between them, that he makes her burn with desire, that he looks at her with heat in his dark eyes.
She’s a monster and monsters don’t need anyone.

Warlord’s Return is a STANDALONE Alien Barbarian SciFi Romance featuring a determined barbarian warrior, an equally resolute human female, and an eyeball-eating mini dragon.
