Claiming Cure – Fourth Scene Of The First Chapter
Claiming Cure, the third core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series, releases next week! Woot!
Today, I’m sharing the fourth and final scene from the very first chapter.
You can read the first scene here:
https://tasteofcyn.com/?p=12411
***
He checked Drift’s specs, losing himself in that data instead. “Your heart rate has slowed.”
“Our current speed won’t break any records.” The pilot expressed his dissatisfaction with their progress. “And Captain chose me for this mission because arriving at Cancri B as quickly as possible is critical for its success.”
Cure was chosen because he had a contact on the planet.
That contact, however, wasn’t keen on meeting with him. Unless that meeting resulted in a repair for the male’s patients.
“According to the charts, there’s nothing in front of us except open space.” Drift continued to talk through his processing. “But the charts have been extremely inaccurate thus far.”
The probability of a collision with a planet or star or asteroid belt was low—the male was a skilled pilot. But it wasn’t 0.0000 percent.
Cure reviewed the contents of the medic packs stored on the escape pods.
“It is too risky to increase our speed.” Drift’s shoulders slumped. “I’ll have to wait until the return trip to break speed records. We’ll document everything we come across and chart our route along the same path.”
Cure didn’t care about breaking speed records. That was solely Drift’s goal. But he liked the idea of returning to the Dauntless and his medic bay faster.
“Our ship will be lighter also.” Drift’s eyes glimmered with humor. “Especially if we leave the Rayan Skin Restorer with your contact on Cancri B.”
“The Rayan Skin Restorer will be returning with us.” Cure frowned at the male.
That piece of medical machinery had been a gift from Power, the leader of the cyborg council, and it was one of Cure’s most valued possessions.
If he’d had access to a Rayan Skin Restorer while he was under the Humanoid Alliance’s control, he could have repaired wounds faster. And 93.2563 percent of the warriors condemned to decommissioning would have escaped that fate.
Grief gripped him.
Temporarily.
He reviewed restoration rates, and that emotion receded.
“Don’t you want to gift the Rayan Skin Restorer to your humanoid male contact?” Drift’s tone indicated he was teasing.
“No.” Cure was serious about all medical equipment and the Rayan Skin Restorer in particular. “I’m not gifting it to my humanoid male contact.”
Nothing could convince him to part with it.
Drift laughed. The fool didn’t realize how important that piece of equipment was.
Cure didn’t bother to enlighten him. He ignored his mission partner and studied the data C had sent him.
A quick review of it relayed that any attempts to repair those Cancri patients were futile. 100.0000 percent of the tumors detailed were past the point of treatment.
And repairing the humanoids also wasn’t part of Cure’s assigned mission. They were to investigate if there was a Humanoid Alliance presence on the planet and whether or not a superweapon was being fabricated. That was the extent of their assignment.
But Cure was a medic first and foremost, and he would give the male his projections.
A life might be saved based on that intel.
That wouldn’t offset all the others that had been lost. He pushed those memories to the back of his processors. But it would make a difference to that one being.

Claiming Cure
A proud cyborg medic meets his human match.
***
Cyra has tasks to complete before she dies.
There are patients to heal, a dangerous mission to undertake, and a world to save. She doesn’t have time to entertain uninvited guests.
Especially one coldhearted cyborg medic who thinks he’s better than her.
The male might be breathtakingly handsome. His sternly set lips might be extremely kissable. And his touch might draw out a passion she didn’t think she was capable of feeling.
But he’s also a distraction, one that might doom millions of innocent beings to a painful, horrible death.
Cure isn’t emotionless. He feels…greatly. Listening to that malfunction has caused other beings pain and suffering in the past.
He refuses to allow his desires to cloud his judgment now.
His resolve is tested when he’s forced to associate with the most provoking, alluring medic in the universe.
Cyra is his genetic match, the one being in the universe he is fated to protect, touch, claim. She’s clever and beautiful, and the need to hold her almost downs his systems.
But now is not the time to indulge his great wanting.
Cure has an assignment to complete.
If he fails to accomplish his goals, everyone he cares for, including his human female, will die.
***
Claiming Cure is a standalone Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features two skilled medics determined to ignore the toe-curling attraction between them, a perilous impossible mission, and foes seeking to ensure they never heal another being ever again.

Claiming Cure And Friends
Does Cure, the medic hero of Claiming Cure, consider Drift to be a friend?
That’s a difficult question to answer because being an officer on the Dauntless, Drift is also Cure’s patient. There has to be a bit of professional distance between them.
But Cure LIKES Drift. He likes spending time with him. And he would die to protect the pilot if that was necessary.
That is pretty dang close to friendship!

Preparing The Garden For Next Year
We rarely (as in once every 10 years or so) purchase fertilizer or amendments for our gardens.
We don’t need to do this. We’re fortunate that nature provides everything we need.
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I prep the vegetable gardens in the Fall/Autumn.
The first layer is a sprinkle of crushed eggshells. This goes on the bottom of the prep lasagne as to ensure it doesn’t attract Rocky the Raccoon or other critters. Eggshells are a long term investment. They take a while to break down. But we plan to have a garden for a long while so we’re okay with waiting. (smiles)
The next layer is compost made from kitchen scraps, coffee grounds, leaves and other yard waste.
Then we add a knee deep layer of leaves. Leaves are super rich in minerals and nutrients. They are GOLD for the garden and are the main reason why we don’t need additional fertilizer or amendments. We wet the leaves and we place large sticks on top of the beds to keep the leaves in place.
The final layer consists of coffee grounds we obtain from nearby coffee shops.
That’s it! (smiles)
The garden beds ‘rest’ all winter. They are covered with snow, are rained on, dried out, frozen, thawed.
And by spring, the leaves have turned into a layer of mulch, the coffee grounds and compost are neutralized and the beds are ready to plant in!

Claiming Cure And Conflicting Intermediate Goals
Cyra, the medic heroine of Claiming Cure, has the goal of ensuring all her patients on Cancri B remain alive and healthy for as long as possible.
To do that, she seeks to rid the planet of the Humanoid Alliance, the beings causing her patients to become ill with tumors, AND she seeks to find a cure for the tumors.
Cure, the medic hero, has the goal of stopping the Humanoid Alliance’s build of a sector-destroying weapon. To do that, he will likely also attempt to rid the planet of their presence.
He doesn’t intend to help Cyra find a cure for the tumors.
But he IS a medic and repairing beings IS his purpose in life so…

Muse Food – Albino Snails
The Dear Wonderful Hubby spotted this ‘albino’ snail in Bermuda.
Almost every species, including humans, has albinoes.
These lifeforms have no melanin. Their skin, fur, feathers, or, in the case of plants, leaves are typically white. And they usually have pink or extremely pale blue eyes.
If this happens here on Earth, it COULD happen on alien planets. It might be the standard on alien planets and wouldn’t that impact life there significantly?

Claiming Cure – Third Scene Of The First Chapter
The countdown to Claiming Cure’s release day continues! I’m sharing scenes from the first chapter as we wait for its release on November 19th.
You can read the first scene of the first chapter here:
https://tasteofcyn.com/?p=12411
This week I’m sharing the third scene.
***
What should we do next? C asked.
There is no we. Cure told the male yet again. I’m traveling to Cancri B.
That was what he was doing next.
Are you? That’s great. The male’s enthusiasm surprised him. How far away are you?
There are 23.1462 planet rotations remaining in the voyage. Cure based his projections on the assumption the modified freighter’s current speed would be maintained.
Curse it. You won’t get here fast enough. C’s excitement dimmed. The tumors in these patients will have progressed too far by then. We won’t be able to save them.
They’ll die, Cure stated bluntly.Based on the data, that was inevitable.
Not if we can help it. C hadn’t yet reached that conclusion. We could increase the Hydii protein in the formula. That’s worth a try.
You’re expending time and energy on patients you can’t repair. Cure tapped that message into his handheld. Both of those resources are limited for your kind. Unlike cyborgs, humanoids didn’t have the ability to repair the damage inflicted on their forms by time. They aged and, eventually, their lifespans ended. Your response isn’t logical.
The male should reallocate his time and energy to patients he could repair. That would benefit the most beings.
Cure had made that same decision on the battlefield. 129,258 times.
Some of the warriors he chose not to repair had been manufactured in the same vat as he had been. Their deaths often replayed in his processors. The guilt lingered.
But he refused to allow it to influence his decisions. He had to focus on the beings he could save.
I can’t abandon them. They deserve a chance to live also. C wanted to save everyone.
That was an impossible task.
They already had a chance to live. Now, they’ll die. The average humanoid’s lifespan was short. Theirs would be shorter.
Fates. Are you certain you’re a living being? C’s manufactured tone held disbelief. I’ve dealt with scanners with more empathy than you have.
The male had relayed that same communication in the past. Cure glanced at Drift. His mission partner had claimed it was an insult. Grid, the Dauntless’s navigator, had held the same processing.
Cure viewed it more positively. Thank you.
Empathy wasn’t conducive to repairing beings. The energy that emotion utilized could be reallocated to restoring patients to full functionality.
That wasn’t a compliment, medic. C snorted.
Fraggin’ hole. Cure gritted his teeth. His brethren were correct. It had been an insult.
If he didn’t need the medic’s assistance with their mission, he’d cut off communications.
But he did need his help. That grated on him. I’m en route to your planet and will arrive in 23.1461 planet rotations. He tapped that message with vigor into his handheld. Designate a meeting place and send me the coordinates.
I didn’t ask you to come here. C ignored his request. Sure, you’re charming.
Cure processed he wasn’t charming. His skills at non-cyborg interactions were admittedly weak.
He had long accepted that malfunction. And he relished that there were only two non-cyborgs on the battle station he had been assigned to.
Having two non-cyborg patients wasn’t ideal, but it was…manageable.
The Cancris don’t respond well to outsiders, however, C relayed. I suggest you skip this stop on your cross-the-universe tour.
Cure’s certainty that the male was a Cancri increased. Based on past chatter, C’s patients responded very well to their medic.
I require intel. That was all Cure was willing to relay over the communication lines.
I’ll send you more data. C must have assumed the intel he required concerned his patients. I could increase the Hydii protein by ten percent. That might do it.
Relay the meeting coordinates. Cure tried to return the male’s attention to that matter.
I’m busy. That was C’s next protest. Much as I’d like to see your smiling face, I have things to do, patients to see.
C wouldn’t ever see his smiling face. Cure maintained a blank expression when he was with others.
And…
You’re a medic. Busy is your default. Cure would be busy also…if he was situated in his medic bay. Send the coordinates.
Ten percent could be too high. C had circled back to a possible repair. It might kill more than the tumor.
Ten percent is too low. Frag. The male irritated him. Increase the Hydii protein by 13.7845 percent and increase the Yudiy compound by 4.1872 percent to offset it.
That could do it. C mused.
That will do it. Cure jabbed the handheld with his fingertips. He was losing his temper. Designate a meeting point, and—
An alarm sounded over the line.
It’s been a blast but I gotta go, medic, C informed him. A patient is coding out. The male ended communications.
He hadn’t designated a meeting place.
Cure stared at the tiny screen on his handheld. If he had been another being, he’d release the roar of frustration building inside him.
But that would serve no one.

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – November 3
The countdown to the release of Claiming Cure, the third core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series, continues! Woot! I shared the first two scenes of the first chapter this week here on this blog.
I love Cure. I love his female. I love this story and I hope you will love it also. (smiles)
I continue to work on the first messy draft of Grid Locked, the fourth core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series (releasing in March). I love this story also. Grid is a hoot. His ‘fated’ female is definitely his match. Grid Locked, thus far, is action packed!
Have a wonderful week, my friends. (big hugs) Go outside for a few moments if you can. Enjoy the colors and smells and sights of the changing seasons if they ARE changing in your part of the universe. Savor a pumpkin spiced treat. Wear something red or yellow or orange. Be part of all that fun!

Claiming Cure
A proud cyborg medic meets his human match.
***
Cyra has tasks to complete before she dies.
There are patients to heal, a dangerous mission to undertake, and a world to save. She doesn’t have time to entertain uninvited guests.
Especially one coldhearted cyborg medic who thinks he’s better than her.
The male might be breathtakingly handsome. His sternly set lips might be extremely kissable. And his touch might draw out a passion she didn’t think she was capable of feeling.
But he’s also a distraction, one that might doom millions of innocent beings to a painful, horrible death.
Cure isn’t emotionless. He feels…greatly. Listening to that malfunction has caused other beings pain and suffering in the past.
He refuses to allow his desires to cloud his judgment now.
His resolve is tested when he’s forced to associate with the most provoking, alluring medic in the universe.
Cyra is his genetic match, the one being in the universe he is fated to protect, touch, claim. She’s clever and beautiful, and the need to hold her almost downs his systems.
But now is not the time to indulge his great wanting.
Cure has an assignment to complete.
If he fails to accomplish his goals, everyone he cares for, including his human female, will die.
***
Claiming Cure is a standalone Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features two skilled medics determined to ignore the toe-curling attraction between them, a perilous impossible mission, and foes seeking to ensure they never heal another being ever again.

Claiming Cure And Seeing The Universe As A Medic Would See It
One of the fun parts of reading and writing is seeing things from the perspective of different beings.
In Claiming Cure, as an example, Cure is VERY much a medic. He views the universe as a medic would view it.
When asked to describe a being, he starts with their functionality. Are they healthy? What are their ailments? He might chatter about their internal organs. Or the results of their scans.
Which usually isn’t at all helpful to a non-medic seeking to find a being. (grins)

Giving Away Leftover Halloween Chocolate
Last night, I realized my childhood dream of giving away full-sized chocolate bars for Halloween.
My friends, it was a BLAST! (beams) Kids were surprised and happy, as were the adults accompanying them.
I was worried about running out of chocolate bars so I stocked up on WAY too much ahead of time.
That means I have some chocolate bars left.
The Dear Wonderful Hubby will be bringing that extra Halloween chocolate to a neighborhood food bank…because EVERYONE deserves a treat once in a while. We hope to make even more people happy.
That’s a wonderful thing! (smiles)
