Cyborgs, Spring And Babies
It is spring in my corner of the universe, a season I always associate with babies – baby plants, baby animals, babies of all kinds. There is a robin nest outside my window and I’m hoping I’ll see some babies soon.
Cyborgs become as excited about babies.
Before Rage met Joan in Releasing Rage, cyborgs didn’t think they could reproduce on their own. They were manufactured in massive vats by the Humanoid Alliance scientists. The breeding programs were unsuccessful.
Rage and Joan proved baby cyborgs WERE possible between a warrior and the being (or, in rare cases, beings) he is genetically compatible with.
Babies are still rare, however. Very few (as a percentage of all cyborgs) warriors have found their compatible beings and reproduction once they find him/her happens sporadically.
This is likely a good thing. Cyborgs and their genetic matches have the ability to live forever. They also don’t age, which means they can potentially make babies for the same duration – for all eternity.
Quick reproduction would result in the universe being overrun with cyborgs. I’d be okay with that but other beings might object.
Cyborg couples (or more) can take their time, get to know each other, practice breeding (grins) before expanding their families. Every offspring is cherished, treasured and protected by all the warriors… (looks at Choice) whether they want that often excessive safeguarding or not.

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.
***
Containing Malice is a STANDALONE enemies-to-lovers Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It is the first of five core stories in the Rebel Cyborgs Series.

Female Cyborgs And The Rebel Cyborg Series
I’ve received quite a few awesome queries from reading buddies about the other female cyborgs, cyborgs like Sky from Releasing Rage, the first cyborg romance I published.
I haven’t forgotten about them! (grins) I promise! I also haven’t forgotten about many of the other cyborg warriors I’ve mentioned in previous stories. They merely haven’t found their genetic matches yet. It IS a huge universe.
I’m trying not to share spoilers. This is challenging for me. I want to tell you EVERYTHING I know. If I do that outside of their own stories, the cyborgs will stop talking to me. We don’t want that to happen.
I WILL share that, knowing Sky, she will likely make a brief appearance in the Rebel Cyborg series. Cadet IS a new female cyborg. Sky will be curious about Cadet and Cadet must be curious about Sky.
Will they get along? Well…THAT I don’t know. Not yet.

Baring Grudge – Cover And Blurb
I’ve completed the first draft of Baring Grudge and I believe, once it has been revised and edited (there will be at least 5 more drafts), you will absolutely love it.
It will be releasing in August and I’ve loaded it to booksellers so you can pre-order it if you’d like to do that.
Baring Grudge
There’s no one in the universe more determined than a cyborg warrior tracking his female.
***
Grudge, a C Model cyborg, has been assigned a mission – safeguard a Humanoid Alliance space station for his kind. Honor was once all he had and he is determined to fulfill his duty.
That resolve is tested when a tiny human female enters the space station and sets the prettiest little explosives the warrior has ever seen. She is Grudge’s genetic match, the one being manufactured for him. He wants to touch her, kiss her, claim her in all ways but, first, he has to stop her from blowing him into the next galaxy.
Taelyn has a self-appointed mission—to destroy every battle robot the Humanoid Alliance has ever manufactured. A huge gray-skinned, blue-eyed cyborg warrior with mismatched arms won’t prevent her from achieving her goal. She’ll escape him, leaving destruction in her wake.
Before she departs, she’ll experience one toe-curling moment of hatred-edged passion with her handsome foe. She’ll show him how skilled with detonations she truly is. He will have his universe rocked.
Then she’ll disappear.
She doesn’t know her cyborg has no intention of ever letting her go.
***
Baring Grudge is a STANDALONE Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features a determined, damaged warrior, an equally resolute human female and an explosive game of predator and prey played across galaxies.
Baring Grudge is the third of five core stories in the Rebel Cyborgs Series.

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – March 28th
I finished the first draft of Baring Grudge, the third story in the Rebel Cyborgs series (releasing in August), this week! Woot! It is a hot mess, as all my first drafts are, but I love Grudge and his female and the other characters we meet in this story and I love how action-packed and explosive (literally) this story is. (grins) I think you’ll love it also.
This upcoming week and the following one will be focused on the second and third drafts. I hope to send Baring Grudge to my Awesome Editor by end of day April 10th. There will likely be three more rounds of editing before this story is finalized.
I feel like I’ve completed this first draft super early but I haven’t. Not really. I just loaded the final draft of Under Strain this week and it releases on May 11th (I like to load final drafts at booksellers at least a month before release day because…well…there have been issues around shorter timeframes in the past).
It is Spring in my corner of the universe. Yesterday, I sat on the front steps and watched the baby ladybugs explore their surroundings. They were adorable and so very tiny.
I hope you’re having a great day, my friends, and I wish you a wonderful week filled with good romance novels, many laughs and much love. (big hugs)

Hawks And Squirrels
A gorgeous red-tailed hawk has made our neighborhood his home. Yesterday, he was circling in the beautiful blue sky, looking for prey.
The Mafia Squirrels were frantic. They scurried to hide from the hawk and the cover they sought was inside our house. They were knocking on the windows and on the back deck’s sliding doors, chattering loudly for us to let them in. Their eyes were wide with fear and I wanted to open the doors… except I knew it would be almost impossible to get the squirrels out of the house once the danger had passed.
Thankfully, all the Mafia Squirrels in our backyard survived.
But it made me think about how they viewed us, the Dear Wonderful Hubby and I, as allies in that instant. Normally, the Mafia Squirrels view us as encroachers onto turf they believe belongs to them. Yesterday, we were seen as a means of potential assistance.
Malice, the hero in Containing Malice, is in a similar situation. He views Illona, the human heroine, as his enemy but she might, just might become his greatest ally.

Under Strain And Peace-Seeking Beings
Kamyelle, the heroine of Under Strain, the second Rebel Cyborgs story (releasing in May), is the last of a long line of peace-seeking humans. Her ancestors came to Rohini 9 in search of a place where they could live in harmony with other beings, with other creatures, with the land.
They found that place…for a while. Rohini 9 hosted predators, velociraptor-like theropods, but the humans learned how to coexist with them with very little conflict…similar to how indigenous people in North America lived with predators like wolves or bear. There was a mutual respect.
Then the Humanoid Alliance arrived on Rohini 9. They brought cyborgs and warships and killing machines with them. And they didn’t want to share the planet…with anyone or anything.
As you can imagine, it didn’t go well for Kamyelle and her kind.

Under Strain
A damaged cyborg warrior is hunted by a peace-loving human female.
***
Strain is severely malfunctioning. The D Model cyborg was the sole survivor after a horrific decision was made by his cruel manufacturers. He hates all humans, and when he attacks one who is under his cyborg leader’s protection, he is reprimanded, stripped of his weapons, and told to watch and not actively participate in the next mission.
That mission takes place on a small remote planet. Its lush terrain should only be inhabited by the cyborgs they were sent to rescue, but Strain senses another presence on the surface. She is watching him, tracking him, hunting him.
A fully operational cyborg would end her lifespan.
Strain wants to claim her. Forever.
Kamyelle is the only one left of her kind. Warriors have killed the other nonviolent human inhabitants of her planet. She survived…barely…by hiding in the trees, observing her enemies, and covering herself with lifeform scan-concealing mud.
When a handsome, gray-skinned, brilliant-blue-eyed male arrives, surrounded by weapon-carrying warriors, she has to save him. Warriors harm and they kill. That is what they do.
She won’t allow them to hurt Strain.
***
Under Strain is a STANDALONE Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features a broken warrior, a human female who thinks he’s perfect, and velociraptor-like dinosaurs who view them both as light, tasty snacks.

Throwback Thursday – Warlord Sky
Warlord Sky is the first standalone story in the new complete Chamele Barbarian Warlords series. Ironically, it is the only one of two stories that DON’T have a Warlord hero. The hero of Warlord Sky is Qulpa, a Chamele pilot. He has been injured, worries he’ll never fly again.
The one being who could make that happen is Nayan, the head of Ship and Weapons Design. She is brilliant yet doesn’t trust anyone. Nayan deliberately isolates herself from other Chameles.
When the two of them meet, it is explosive. Literally. (grins)
Warlord Sky
No one grounds a barbarian warrior.
Qulpa, a Chamele warrior, lost everyone he loved in the brutal Succession Wars. Flying is the only thing that brings him joy. Serving as his team’s pilot is the sole duty he has left. Then a horrific crash leaves him injured and unable to fly.
The one being who can help him is also his gerel, the female destined to be his. She insists she doesn’t feel their connection. Qulpa is certain his beautiful mate is lying and nothing will stop him from finding out why.
Nayan knows the injured barbarian is her warrior, her one chance at a forever bond. His dominance makes her feel safe. His gentle touch inflames her passion. His kisses scorch her very soul. The tall muscular male tempts her as no one else has.
But she has a deadly secret. If it’s exposed, her injured male will lose more than his ability to fly. Both of them will die. She can’t take that risk, not for him, not for them, not for a lifespan filled with love.

Cyborgs And the Seasons
It is Spring in my corner of the universe. Spring is one of my favorite seasons. Animals are having babies. The snow has melted, creating little streams of running water everywhere. (My home isn’t close to running water normally so this is a treat for me.) Tender shoots of grass and flowers are bursting from the ground. The birds sing happily every morning. It is a wonderful time to be alive.
In the depths of space, there aren’t, of course, any seasons. But on most of the planets the cyborgs and other warriors visit, there ARE seasons. We merely don’t see them change during the duration of a story.
In Holding Hoarse, locals were celebrating the harvest, which implies there’s a Fall/Autumn or Harvest season. Containing Malice was set during a barren, snowless Winter. The rock outcropping sporting the laboratory is stark and unwelcoming. Under Strain, the May release, is set during a rain forest-like Summer. The vegetation is lush. The ground is wet.
Cyborgs are manufactured to adapt to different conditions and they thrive in all seasons. I suspect they would enjoy the Spring here on Earth as much as I do. (smiles)

Extras And Newsletter Snippets
On non-release months (like this month – grins), I often share updates on existing couples (or more) or backstory on upcoming characters (this month, that backstory snippet was about Power, Lethe and Eirene Ours) in my newsletters.
It is fun to revisit with characters and to ‘see’ scenes that are unlikely to make it into the stories.
Some reading buddies wanted these snippets to be available in Mobi/Kindle or ePub/Apple/Nook/Kobo format. I’m slowly, with the help of the Dear Wonderful Hubby, doing this. I’m working from present day backwards.
The links to all the snippets will be on my Extras page – http://cynthiasax.com/extras/ .
You need to sign up for my newsletter to get access to these snippets so they are still newsletter exclusive extras. Don’t worry. If you sign up multiple times under the same email address, you should only receive one copy of my newsletter.
Let me know if there are any issues! This is an experiment for me. I appreciate any feedback!

Why I Build Worlds
I wrote a post for Dragon’s Book Hoarde about why I tend to build worlds.
Here is a snippet…
“I get attached to people. I’ve known and loved Dragon for well over a decade (we won’t say how many years more – grins). I’ve worked with my cover artist on other projects long before I was a published writer. I consider readers to be part of my book family and I worry when I don’t hear from them.
This is no different for my characters. My characters are their own beings. It is sort of like the characters in our dreams. They might come from our brains but they do their own thing. I care for many of them…greatly. I also want them all to find their romantic happy ever afters…if that is possible (sometimes it isn’t possible).”

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.
