March – In Like A Lion…

By Cynthia Sax on March 1, 2021

Today is March 1st.

My much beloved Grandpa was a farmer (he worked on the roads also). I have a great respect for that role, which is why many of the beings in my stories have connections to agri-lot tenders, futuristic farmers. Farmers keep us fed. That’s key for any civilization.

Anyhoo… during March, my farming Grandpa would always boom, “In like a lion. Out like a lamb.” And nod as though that said everything. (grins) He was a character and I loved him so very much.

When I was a kid, I pictured the animals and I was always disappointed when lions and lambs didn’t show up. I didn’t realize that the saying truly meant if the weather at the beginning of March was bad, the weather at the end of the month would be good…for farmers. Good weather for farmers isn’t always what the rest of us view as good weather.

Grandpa, I’m thinking of you and other farmers today.

Containing Malice

This tormented cyborg craves vengeance…and her.

***

Malice, a C Model cyborg, has spent his long lifespan enslaved by the Humanoid Alliance. His cruel manufacturers have hurt him in all the ways a male could be hurt.

His enemy has now added a new weapon to their arsenal—a tiny human medic with soft hands and a delectable scent. She experiments on him multiple times a shift, delivering pain…and frustration.

He wants her. He also seeks retribution.

Once Malice frees himself, he plans to achieve both of his goals, taking Medic Illona captive and ending her research…permanently.

Illona is as much a prisoner as the cyborgs she experiments on. Since her arrival at the Human Alliance’s secret laboratory, she has carefully, stealthily, crafted a plot to free her test subjects. To conceal her covert activities, the medic has been forced to harm beings rather than heal them.

The being she has damaged the most is also the cyborg she fiercely desires— Malice, a huge, gray-skinned, blue-eyed C Model with massive hands and a voice deeper than space. He hates her, has good reason to do so, and, when he’s freed, there’s a high probability he’ll kill her.

Illona will take that risk to ensure he survives.
