I had to get reading glasses yesterday. Text was fuzzy. It was hard to focus on the words.
I was told by the optometrist this happens to most people over the age of 40 but I felt betrayed by my eyeballs. (grins) In the past, I could count on them. I could simply open my eyes and see. Now I need help to view text. It isn’t automatic.
Having faced the challenges of my changing eyesight, I can better relate to cyborgs whose parts don’t function as they were designed.
Strain whose processors are stuck on repeat, replaying the most horrific planet rotation of his life over and over. Grudge whose replacement arm and leg will never truly feel like his originals. B whose limbs creak whenever he moves.
These cyborgs have all be betrayed by their bodies yet they have learned to not only live with their unique issues but thrive with them.
I suspect I’ll reach that same stage also. (Tries to rub my eyes through the lenses.) Once I adjust to wearing these reading glasses. (laughs)

Baring Grudge
No one in the universe is 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 blasting 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.
Her cyborg, however, has no intention of ever letting her go.
