Throwback Thursday – Warlord’s Mercy
Tolui is the baddie of the first four stories in the Chamele Barbarian Warlords series. He does and is responsible for some bad things. He and his warriors are waging war against the Chameles.
They have a good reason for doing this.
In Warlord’s Mercy, we uncover that reason. And we realize that…
Some villains deserve love also.
Other Chameles view him as the enemy.
She sees the warrior hero he never believed he could be.
* * *
Tolui is a Warlord in search of a planet to rule. He has been leading his fellow clones in a stealth battle, fighting for both control of the Chamele sector and the right to exist. The brave warriors he commands warrant respect, and they deserve the best.
That best isn’t the barren, dangerous terrain on Chamele 4. When Tolui crashes on that planet’s surface, he’s determined to leave it as soon as possible. The tiny human female rescuing him might be as beautiful and as wild as the land she inhabits, but her flowing words, trusting gaze, and enthralling submission won’t stop him from rejoining the war.
After many solar cycles of living alone, Lea is overjoyed when a tall, scarred, muscular warrior falls from the sky. Her savage stranger is strong and severe, and he makes her feel safe, an emotion she hasn’t experienced in a long, long time.
He also insists they must part. Before they do, she’ll show him the splendor of her home, and she’ll enjoy his big form, collecting passionate moments she can revisit when she’s solitary once more.
Every additional moment Lea and Tolui spend together increases the chance they’ll both die. Lea is being chased by female-hating fiends. Tolui is being hunted by the best bounty hunters in the universe. War will soon arrive on their threshold, and the blood spilled might be their own.
* * *
Warlord’s Mercy is based on a much shorter story sharing the same title.
It is a STANDALONE Alien Barbarian SciFi Romance featuring a villain turned hero and a brave, chatty heroine set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
Warlord’s Mercy is the fifth of six core stories in the Chamele Barbarian Warlord series.
Book 1: Warlord Sky
Book 2: Warlord’s Bounty
Book 3: Warlord Unarmed
Book 4: Warlord Reunited
Book 5: Warlord’s Mercy
Book 6: Warlord’s Return

Throwback Thursday – Warlord’s Mercy
There is a saying in the writing world – a villain is the hero of their own story.
Tolui was the big baddie in the first four stories in the Chamele Barbarian Warlords series. I thought he would always be the big baddie and would eventually be defeated.
Then I got to know him. I realized he cared so much about the beings he led that he was willing to sacrifice everything, including his honor and his life, to ensure they were happy.
That’s a hero. And Tolui is definitely one of those.
He deserves his own story and his own romantic happily ever after.
Warlord’s Mercy is that story.
Other Chameles view him as the enemy.
She sees the warrior hero he never believed he could be.

Throwback Thursday – Warlord’s Mercy
I’m a pantser, a writer who writes by the seat of her pants, someone who doesn’t have any idea where a story is going when she sits down to write.
I didn’t know how the Chamele Barbarian Warlords series would end, but I assumed, Tolui, the big baddie, would eventually die…because that is what big baddies do in romance novels – they die. I assumed the Warlord brothers would work together to defeat him. Permanently.
I was as surprised as many reading buddies were to find out Tolui would be the hero of his own story. The dang male refused to die. His mission was noble. He is deserving of a love to last forever.
And he is one of my all time favorite heroes.
Other Chameles view him as the enemy.

Throwback Thursday – Warlord’s Mercy
I have a thing for the bad boys, the heroes who might not be heroes in many people’s eyes, the males who live their lives by their own moral codes, their own rules.
Tolui, the hero of Warlord’s Mercy, is definitely one of those heroes. (grins) He wasn’t supposed to be a hero at all. I had envisioned him as the big baddie, the warrior the Warlord brothers would eventually defeat…permanently.
Tolui refused to die. He had a mission and, dang it, that mission was noble.
Then he met Lea, his fated mate, his gerel and I knew he needed his own story. He deserved happiness.
Other Chameles view him as the enemy.
She sees the warrior hero he never believed he could be.

Throwback Thursday – Warlord’s Mercy
The Chamele Barbarian Warlords series was originally supposed to be only 3 books long. It would tell the stories of the 3 Warlord brothers. In the final story, they would defeat the big baddie – Tolui – and there would be peace in the Chamele sector (or it would be as peaceful as a sector filled with warriors could be).
The problem was…Tolui wouldn’t die. The d*mn warrior stubbornly and cleverly escaped death again and again. And he showed mercy to his perceived foes during the confrontations. His cause was just.
He was a hero disguised as a villain and he deserved love, a future, a chance at a happy ever after.
I HAD to tell his story and I’m happy I did. It was a story worth sharing.
Other Chameles view him as the enemy.

Warlord’s Return – Blurb And Release Date
Warlord’s Return, the 6th and final story in the Chamele Barbarian Warlords series, will be releasing November 3rd! Woot!
I have a cover, a blurb, and Amazon is the first as always to list the story for pre-order. The other booksellers should be listing it next week at the latest.
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.

Warlord’s Return And Finishing A First Draft
I finished the first draft of Warlord’s Return (releasing in November) yesterday. Woot!
It is a steaming piece of sh*t as all of my first drafts are but the bones of the story are solid, the couple (Ariq and a heroine you haven’t yet met) is magical together, and I believe you’ll really like this 6th and final installment of the Chamele Barbarian Warlords series. We return to the Refuge, the home of Kralj, so we interact not only with the Chameles but also with the modified humanoids (the flying triplets are physically grown and are causing chaos).
Completing a first draft is a time for celebration in the Sax household. Heck, any win at all is a time for celebration and completing a first draft is a HUGE win. As Jodi Picoult says, “You can always edit a bad page. You can’t edit a blank page.” And as my awesome editor once told me, I have to write the first draft. She can’t help me with that. She CAN help me with everything else.
Even if the first draft sucks big hairy donkey balls, it is an achievement. It gives writers and editors something to work with and that is a very good place to be. Celebrate those first drafts.
If my schedule allows it (laughs semi-hysterically), I set aside a first draft for a day or two, give myself some space, some distance from it, before rolling into the extremely intense second draft. I tend to continue thinking about the story and jot down ideas, solutions to plot holes, etc to include when I pick it back up again.
The timing of this completed first draft is great because Testing Truth (releasing in September) has returned from my awesome editor. I’ll work on that today and this weekend.
Then on Monday, I’ll start the second draft.

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – July 12th
My Facebook account is still under review. I don’t think humans are actually working in their customer service anymore and the bots don’t know what to do with my situation. (sheepish grin)
The cyborgs aren’t being helpful at all. They like that I have more time to spend with them. Hoarse is demanding his story. He isn’t telling me what his story is about but he wants it written. Now. (eye rolls) This is what I’m dealing with, my friends. (laughs)
Testing Truth, the next cyborg romance (releasing September 15th) is still with my awesome editor. She’s looking at it for the second time.
I’m completing the first draft of Warlord’s Return (releasing in November) this week. I have three more chapters to write. Thus far, the hero (Ariq) and the heroine are still alive. (grins) Woot! I consider that to be a win!
I’m revising a short story today. As I mentioned last week, I might not publish it but it will be closer to that stage after this weekend. The short stories are muse cleansers and they’re fun. They keep me in the zone as I take a break from the fresh writing.
I had a great idea for a very different story this weekend. I jotted it down and sent it to my agent. She will give me some insights into whether or not anyone would be interested in reading it. It needs to be published through a large publisher to work.
That’s one of the issues with having been kicked off Facebook—I have TOO many great ideas now. My brain is buzzing with them. That is both an awesome upside and a challenge as I only have so much time to write. (big happy sigh)

It is midway through the year, a great time to reveal the stories I have planned.
Testing Truth – September 15, 2020
Truth’s story will be the next one to release. It has been loaded at booksellers and is available for pre-orders. I suspect you’ll love this story. It is my editor’s favorite in the Cyborg Space Exploration series. Truth is a hoot and his female matches him for drama and excitement.
One of the questions I often receive is – Why not release this story immediately?
Because it hasn’t been completely edited. The first high level round of edits has been completed. This stage tells me whether or not the story works. It might need deep revisions. If that is the case, it could take a month or longer to get the story to the working point. Or it might have to be scrapped completely. That happens.
Thankfully, Testing Truth works as a story. I’m confident it will be ready for September 15th but it is unlikely to be ready much earlier than that.
Testing Truth is the final core story in the Cyborg Space Exploration portion of the longer Cyborg Romance series.
Warlord’s Return – November 2020
I’m 10 chapters into the 18 chapter first draft of Warlord’s Return, the 6th and final story in the Chamele Barbarian Warlords series. I’m loving it. Ariq and his gerel are magical together. I think the story works but my editor will confirm (likely in August) if I’m right.
Holding Hoarse – December 2020
Hoarse’s romance will be the free short story this year, my thank you to you and other reading buddies. (big hugs) We first met Hoarse in Passion Surge. He is the ulu-making, offspring-loving C Model and he definitely deserves love.
Containing Malice – February 2021
Under Strain – May 2021
Baring Grudge – August 2021
B Free – November 2021
Seizing Power – February 2022
I usually release a cyborg romance every four months. I know reading buddies are impatient for Power’s story so in 2021, I will be releasing a cyborg romance every three months.
These cyborgs (with the exception of Power) were left behind during the cyborg mass rebellion. Many of them are damaged. ALL of them are angry and emotionally battered. They have a tendency to be violent but also retain…barely…the capacity for love.
They remind me of Rage, of how he was during most of his story.
There will likely be a freebie short story in 2021 also but I don’t know what the title will be (I suspect it will be Relay’s story. I can’t leave him without a female after Surge and Hoarse have found theirs.).
We have MANY stories to look forward to reading. (grins) I am certainly looking forward to writing them.

Other Chameles view him as the enemy.
She sees the warrior hero he never believed he could be.

Tolui is a Warlord in search of a planet to rule. He has been leading his fellow clones in a stealth battle, fighting for both control of the Chamele sector and the right to exist. The brave warriors he commands warrant respect, and they deserve the best.
That best isn’t the barren, dangerous terrain on Chamele 4. When Tolui crashes on that planet’s surface, he’s determined to leave it as soon as possible. The tiny human female rescuing him might be as beautiful and as wild as the land she inhabits, but her flowing words, trusting gaze, and enthralling submission won’t stop him from rejoining the war.
After many solar cycles of living alone, Lea is overjoyed when a tall, scarred, muscular warrior falls from the sky. Her savage stranger is strong and severe, and he makes her feel safe, an emotion she hasn’t experienced in a long, long time.
He also insists they must part. Before they do, she’ll show him the splendor of her home, and she’ll enjoy his big form, collecting passionate moments she can revisit when she’s solitary once more.
Every additional moment Lea and Tolui spend together increases the chance they’ll both die. Lea is being chased by female-hating fiends. Tolui is being hunted by the best bounty hunters in the universe. War will soon arrive on their threshold, and the blood spilled might be their own.
