Throwback Thursday – Dark Flight

By Cynthia Sax on September 28, 2023

In Dark Thoughts, the first story in the Refuge/Dark Thoughts series, the hero, Kralj, is dark and ominous and he’s also scarred. He feels like he looks like the monster he is.

Orol, the hero of Dark Flight, in contrast, looks like an angel. He’s beautiful. He has wings. Beings are awed by how gorgeous he is.

But if Kralj is a monster, Orol is a monster also. He was created to kill and he enjoys it.

Which is fortunate for Rhea, the heroine of Dark Flight. She needs a skilled warrior.

In multiple ways. (grins)

Dark Flight

His mission. His challenge. His forever.

Orol, the Refuge’s second-in-command, has been given what he believes is a simple mission—escort two human females to the settlement. The winged warrior arrives at the meeting site to find one of the females missing and the other aiming a gun at his head. To rescue the first, he must capture the second. Once he has Rhea in his talons, however, he realizes he never wants to let her go.

Her enemy. Her captor. Her everything.

Rhea doesn’t trust anyone. She certainly doesn’t follow commands issued by a gorgeous flying male with glittering eyes, a beautiful face, and a seductive touch. Orol is dominant, edged with darkness, and determined to find her sister. Rhea will do anything to prevent that, even if it means playing sensual games of submission with her powerful enemy, seducing him into forgetting everything except her.

Dark Flight is a STAND-ALONE SciFi Romance set in a gritty, dark world.

Throwback Thursday – Dark Flight

By Cynthia Sax on February 23, 2023

I receive MANY requests for a follow up story to Dark Flight. These requests all mention three characters who haven’t yet received their own stories. (grins) If you’ve read Dark Flight and the rest of the series, you know the characters I’m referring to.

I DO plan to write their stories. I think I’ll write the Next Gen Cyborgs first and then another Modified Humanoid/Refuge-set set of stories.

Anyhoo… Orol, the hero of Dark Flight, is a winged hero. He looks like an angel. But he certainly doesn’t act like one. (laughs)

Which is great because Rhea, the heroine, needs a warrior who can walk on the dark side of life.

Orol is certainly that type of being!

Orol, the hero of Dark Flight, is, I believe, the sole winged hero I have. Having flight as an option made the steamy scenes so much fun. Sex in the sky! (grins)

Rhea, the heroine, is a complete bada$$. She’s a bit of a mama bear about her younger sister, is extremely protective. And she loses her sh*t when that sister is abducted.

Stakes are high. As are the passions. Orol and Rhea set off sparks when they meet.

Orol, the hero of Dark Flight, is the only winged hero I’ve written about…thus far. A certain winged Modified Humanoid who appeared in B Free might someday receive his own story.

Winged heroes mean fun times in the sky. (grins) Orol also sports talons, which hints at how very dangerous he is. He is exactly the type of male, Rhea, his heroine, needs.

Orol, the hero of Dark Flight, is the most classically handsome of all the heroes in my story. And he is truly ‘classically’ handsome as he sports wings. (grins) He looks like an angel but he is SO not one. He’s Kralj’s second-in-command at the Refuge, is a fierce warrior, loves to fight.

Rhea, his heroine, is as strong as he is. She’s dedicated to her younger sister and would do anything, even team up with Orol, to protect her.

This story has a gladiator-in-space type feel to it. There are competitions, fights to the death. If you enjoy those types of stories, you might love Dark Flight.

Throwback Thursday – Dark Flight

By Cynthia Sax on April 15, 2021

The migratory birds have returned to my corner of the universe. They chirp happily all day and it is such a merry sound. They’re likely arguing or something like that. (grins) I don’t understand bird but I think they’re happy and I smile when I hear them.

Orol is the being I think of when the birds return. He’s the winged hero of Dark Flight, the second story in the Refuge/Dark Thoughts Series. This modified humanoid loves to fly.

Which means there are some steamy scenes with Rhea, his mate, in the air. Those were fun to write and I find them fun to read.

Throwback Thursday – Dark Flight

By Cynthia Sax on December 10, 2020

I always associate angels with this time of the year. When I was a child, we had an angel tree topper. She was very old, as I always assume angels are, and she was extremely fragile, which I picture angels to appear. I was as fumbly then as I am now and I never trusted myself to hold her, feared I would drop her.

Orol, the hero of Dark Flight, resembles an angel in some ways. He has wings, has the ability to live forever, enjoys powers humans don’t have, is extremely beautiful. He is very NOT like an angel in other ways. He enjoys killing a bit too much and he vastly enjoys sexy times with his mate. (grins)

Dark Flight is the second story in the now completed Dark Thoughts/Refuge series. It features Orol, Kralj’s winged second-in-command and Rhea, a human female we first meet in Ghost Of A Machine (Ghost’s story in the Cyborg Sizzle series).

One of the many things I love about Dark Flight is it shows us a bit of Carinae E outside of the Refuge. This is one tough planet occupied by equally tough beings. Their entertainments are brutal and harsh and that suits the darkness inside Orol.

He might look like an angel with his handsome face and his beautiful wings but he IS a monster. He was manufactured to kill and he enjoys it a bit too much.

Balvan And Dark Flight

By Cynthia Sax on July 13, 2017

I’ve received messages about Balvan, the giant green gatekeeper of the Refuge. He appears in Chasing Mayhem, Dark Thoughts and Dark Flight.

He threatened to take over Dark Flight. I had to limit his scenes because he tended to steal them. Which wouldn’t be fair to Orol and Rhea. They had their own thrilling tale to tell.

Balvan’s story is next (Dark Strength – releasing early 2018) and I can’t wait to write it. Due to his size, the modified humanoid has spent his lifespan being misunderstood. Folks are scared of him. They don’t know he can be a gentle giant (when he’s not crushing skulls).

Balvan is deserving of love yet he doesn’t believe he’ll ever experience it. So he showers love on the tiny creatures he rescues. (The puffker in Dark Flight belongs to him.)

I’m looking for the perfect female for him. It won’t be Paloma, Rhea’s sister. She is much too young for Balvan. He views her as he views the puffker – as a being to care for, to protect, to dote over. Paloma, I suspect, being a self-absorbed teenager, might also unknowingly put another dent in that big heart of his. Balvan tends to become attached to the beings he cares for.

Which makes the hunt for his female even more important. Once he finds her, Balvan will never let her go.
