Strike Zone And A Cyborg’s Hearing Range
In Strike Zone, the cyborgs on board the Dauntless hear a strange sound. The humans on board the battle station don’t hear that sound because its frequency is outside a human’s hearing range.
Humans, on average, can hear frequencies between 64 and 23,000 Hz.
A dog, on average, can hear frequencies between 67 and 45,000 Hz.
A cat, on average, can hear frequencies between 45 and 64,000 Hz.
Cyborgs are half machine. They can hear any frequencies our machines can measure.
Does that include ALL frequencies? Perhaps not. But it is a huge range.

Strike Zone
A cyborg devoted to duty…and to her.
***
While attending a party, Kesser, the daughter of her planet’s leader, witnesses the abduction of her best friend and her best friend’s mate.
She’s determined to rescue them. Preferably without fracturing the fragile peace agreement her mom has crafted with the abductors’ planet.
The only issue is…she has never participated in a retrieval mission.
Searching for assistance, she approaches the mate’s guard. The male, with his big broad shoulders and deep growly voice, affects her like no other being ever has.
Kesser wants him. She trusts him. And she requires his stealth combat skills.
Desperately.
Strike is no guard. The D Model cyborg has been sent to the sector to discreetly investigate a potential planet-destroying situation.
When a curvy human female with big brown eyes requests his help with a rescue, he doesn’t hesitate to say yes. She’s his genetic match, the one being he was manufactured to protect.
She’s also traveling to the next planet he has to search. He plans to claim his female while he fulfills his responsibilities to his kind.
Neither Strike nor Kesser realizes the dangers facing them are far greater than they imagine. Their enemies are converging, and one failed mission could doom the entire universe.
***
Strike Zone is a standalone, mistaken-identity, Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features a cyborg warrior with a finely honed sense of honor, a human support being taking on her first dangerous mission, and an evil that threatens everyone in existence.

Throwback Thursday – Dominance And Dissent
Dissent is a bad a$$ cyborg. He looks tough. He’s a skilled warrior.
And he has a softness for small defenseless creatures. (smiles)
Greer isn’t a small defenseless creature but she IS fighting to free herself from some terrible beings. And she’s Dissent’s genetic match. His protectiveness is thrown into overdrive around her.
And the baby creature they adopt as their own.
Dominance And Dissent
To earn the love of his curvy human, this cyborg will have to set her free.
***
Dissent has one primary mission—to find his female and protect her.
He doesn’t know who she is, where she’s situated, or what she looks like. That doesn’t stop him from searching the universe for her. He’s a cyborg and he’s determined. He WILL track her down.
While the J Model warrior is exploring a settlement on a merchant planet, he hears a defiant scream. Dissent has finally located the one being he’s genetically compatible with. He rushes to his little human’s side, ready and willing to defend her, eager to claim his female…forever.
Greer has only one dream—to be free. She’s been a slave her entire lifespan, has been subjected to soul-crushing abuse and pride-shredding humiliation. When an opportunity to escape presents itself, she takes it. Steps away from independence, she’s apprehended.
As she looks death in the face, waiting for the final strike, a tall, handsome cyborg warrior saves her. He exudes power, makes her tremble with desire, is unlike any of the males she’s ever known…except in one heartbreaking way.
He wants to own her.
As Dissent and Greer battle for dominance, danger looms. An enemy from the past has returned. He’s heavily armed, he’s not alone, and his sole goal is to kill both of them.
***
Dominance And Dissent is a STANDALONE Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features an overprotective cyborg, a defiant slave, and a ravenous baby creature who is determined to eat his way through an entire settlement.

Strike Zone And When We, Readers, Know More
In Strike Zone, a mysterious sound reaches the Dauntless. Intrepid, the Dauntless’s captain, is aware of it before everyone else is.
Strike can’t process WHY his captain always senses danger before everyone else does.
But anyone who has read Intrepid Encounter knows Intrepid has that ability. Yes. (grins) We know more than Strike and the other cyborgs on Intrepid’s crew know.
And that’s glorious. (laughs)

Muse Food – Toucans And White Space
The Dear Wonderful Hubby took this photo of a toucan in Costa Rica. It was taken through the lens of a telescope and the core part of the image was framed by a black circle.
Which I found VERY interesting. The black drove my gaze to the toucan. It drew attention to it.
I tend to use white space with my stories a similar way. If I want reading buddies to pay attention to a sentence or phrase, I’ll place it within its own paragraph, surrounding it with white space.

Strike Zone – Second Scene Of The First Chapter
Strike Zone releases on February 27th! Woot I’m sharing scenes from the first chapter as we wait.
You can read the first scene of the first chapter here:
https://tasteofcyn.com/?p=11560
This week I’m sharing the second scene.
***
“My plan now is to erect a shield around some space debris and fire missiles at it.” Their navigator appeared content with that modification.
“I projected that was your plan.” Intrepid nodded. “Engineering will assist with that project. Choice?”
“I’ll assist him, Captain.” The kid lifted his chin.
Their leader dipped his head in acknowledgement. “Strike, organize two more mock battles.”
“Organizing two more mock battles, Captain.” Strike wouldn’t participate in either of them.
He trained. His fighting skills had to be honed to ensure he could physically protect the beings around him. But he derived no joy from mock killing others.
Others felt differently about the events.
Pick me as one of the leaders. Grid resumed his campaigning.
Strike would give him that honor. “The teams will be led by—”
Captain held up his right hand. That was a signal for silence.
A strange sound pulsed through the bridge.
Strike couldn’t process how Captain had heard it first but their leader often detected danger before others did.
“What’s that noise?” Intrepid looked at them for input.
Strike had no projection of its cause. He skimmed his hands over the control panel embedded in the console before him. There were no indications of any issues on board the battle station.
No one else spoke.
“What’s the status of our systems?” Intrepid looked at Choice.
“All systems are operating within spec, Captain.” The kid looked down at his control panel also.
“The sound isn’t originating from our communications systems, Captain.” Argot verified that fact.
“It isn’t impacting the Dauntless’s flight.” Drift, their pilot, kept the battle station on course.
Cure, their medic, raised his handheld. “The sound has triggered threat responses in us, but there are no other signs of damage to our forms.”
Strike ran noise-level scans on the entire vessel. “It’s loudest on the right side of the battle station.” That side faced the border. The border they vowed to protect. He shifted his weight from his left booted foot to his right booted foot. “Requesting authorization to modify the Dauntless’s trajectory 90 degrees to the west.”
“That path is clear, Captain.” Grid relayed information Strike already processed.
“Authorization granted.” Their leader didn’t hesitate to take his suggestion. That pleased Strike. “Drift, adjust your course.”
“Adjusting our course, Captain.” Their pilot made that modification.
Strike performed another set of noise-level scans. “The sound is now loudest at the front of the Dauntless.”
“It’s originating from outside the vessel.” Captain tapped his chin with his right index finger. “And also from outside the sector.”
That meant it was outside their responsibility.
“Is it a distress call?” Cure placed one of his hands on the medic pack set on the console before him. The male was prepared to respond to any request for assistance.
“If it’s a distress call, it’s unlike any I’ve ever heard.” Argot shook his head.
“It resembles…” Strike searched the databases for a corresponding sound.
“What does it resemble?” Intrepid gazed at him. “Give me your best projection.”
“There’s no exact match, but the variance to this is merely 2.1258 percent.” Strike played the audio recording.
Captain listened to it and then nodded. “That was my projection also.” Their leader recognized the sound.
As did every cyborg on the bridge. A solemness fell over the space.
“I can’t hear anything.” Argot’s female’s forehead furrowed.
“The frequency is above a human’s range,” the Valkyrie, her chosen mother, explained. “And it resembles the sound of an activated world-ender.” Captain’s female had lived longer than any of them and had fought battles all over the universe. She had identified the partial match. “The pulsing is coming from a weapon.”
“If it’s a weapon, it’s a different type.” Strike didn’t have enough inputs to label the source of the noise.
Choice, their engineer, nodded. “A 2.1258 variance is significant.”
“We’re being hailed by the Nimble, Captain.” Argot relayed that development.
The Nimble was the primary patrol battle station assigned to their section of border.
“Open communications.” Captain shifted in his chair.

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – February 4
I continue to work on the first draft of Drift Would, the second core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series (releasing in July). My target for the submit-to-my-editor date is March 1st. That will give us plenty of time to hone the story. (smiles)
Friends, I LOVE this story thus far and I think you’ll love it also.
Strike Zone, the first core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series, is all set to release on the 27th. I shared the first snippet from the first chapter on my blog on Monday. I can’t wait for you to read the entire story!
Have a wonderful week, my friends. (big hugs) Have some stealth fun. Wiggle your toes under the desk. Wear happy face-decorated socks. Slip a tiny sliver of chocolate into your coffee. And don’t tell anyone about this! It will be our secret!

Strike Zone And Action-Seeking Cyborgs
Cyborgs were manufactured for battle.
They are designed for action. They seek action. They NEED action.
The cyborgs on the Dauntless are some of the best warriors in the universe. Their need to take action is more accentuated than that of the average cyborg.
And, due to their recent reprimand, they have been assigned a very passive role.
That’s creating tension on the battle station. And chaos. Because idle beings of action tend to create their own excitement. And that excitement isn’t always…safe. (grins)

Throwback Thursday – Doc’s Orders
A series about space exploration wouldn’t, unfortunately be complete without a story centering around the diseases newcomers might transfer to the often isolated local population. That has always been a terrible consequence of exploration.
Doc’s Orders is that story in the cyborg world. I wrote it before COVID and our own Earth-based pandemic. At the time, scientists believed Candida auris would likely become a pandemic (it still might become one) and that is what I roughly based the outbreak in Doc’s Orders on.
Doc’s Orders might be too…real for some readers. And that’s okay. Skip this story and read the next one in the series.
Doc’s Orders
She wants both sides of her cyborg—the medic AND the beast.
A fully functional cyborg is balanced. His machine half and his organic half work together to produce the perfect warrior.
Doc isn’t fully functional.
The G Model operates at the two extremes. When his machine is in complete control, he’s the logic-driven medic, saving lifespans. Once his organics take charge, he becomes the savage beast…and beings die.
Both sides of Doc want to be the first to claim his female.
Allinen is one of the few beings in her small settlement who wasn’t born with a fated mate. Determined to belong somewhere, she has crafted a plan to leave the planet.
That plan doesn’t involve a huge stormy-eyed male who alternates between cool seduction and out-of-control ravishment. Doc isn’t her fated mate. Allinen knows that. But his dual nature and forbidden embraces tempt her to forget forever and indulge in more immediate delights.
Neither side of Doc views their relationship as being temporary. Her conflicted cyborg is prepared to battle her family, her planet and death itself to keep her.

Strike Zone And Being The Sole Child Of A Single Mom
Kesser, the human heroine of Strike Zone, the first core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series (releasing in February), is the sole child of a widowed and now single mom.
She loves her mom. The two of them are very close.
Kesser’s mom relies on her for a lot. She asks Kesser’s advice on a multitude of subjects. They live together (the culture on their planet is unpartnered children live with their parents). And they spend part of each planet rotation (day) together.
I am a child of a single mom. My relationship with my Awesome Mom is very different than my Dear Wonderful Hubby’s relationship with his two parents. His parents have each other to discuss matters with. My mom discusses these same matters with me and my siblings.
Leaving home was and is also more complicated for me. I have five siblings yet I’m always concerned my Awesome Mom might be lonely and/or isolated. This concern would be greater for Kesser due to her planet’s culture.
Kesser is committed to her mom. And Strike is committed to his brethren and the crew of the Dauntless.
Their future is very much uncertain.

Muse Food – Whale Sculptures And Meeting Expectations
One of the things travelers expect to see when they’re visiting Grand Turks are whales.
But whales, being wild living creatures, don’t adhere to anyone else’s schedule. They do their own thing and they appear when they want to appear.
Which means some travelers won’t see whales when they visit Grand Turks.
Living whales.
Leaders on Grand Turks have ensured travelers will always see A whale by installing a magnificent life-sized whale sculpture by the shore.
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I thought this was a clever way to ensure Grand Turks meets visitor expectations. (grins)
Our readers have expectations when they pick up our stories also. Think of creative ways to meet those expectations!

Strike Zone
A cyborg devoted to duty…and to her.
***
While attending a party, Kesser, the daughter of her planet’s leader, witnesses the abduction of her best friend and her best friend’s mate.
She’s determined to rescue them. Preferably without fracturing the fragile peace agreement her mom has crafted with the abductors’ planet.
The only issue is…she has never participated in a retrieval mission.
Searching for assistance, she approaches the mate’s guard. The male, with his big broad shoulders and deep growly voice, affects her like no other being ever has.
Kesser wants him. She trusts him. And she requires his stealth combat skills.
Desperately.
Strike is no guard. The D Model cyborg has been sent to the sector to discreetly investigate a potential planet-destroying situation.
When a curvy human female with big brown eyes requests his help with a rescue, he doesn’t hesitate to say yes. She’s his genetic match, the one being he was manufactured to protect.
She’s also traveling to the next planet he has to search. He plans to claim his female while he fulfills his responsibilities to his kind.
Neither Strike nor Kesser realizes the dangers facing them are far greater than they imagine. Their enemies are converging, and one failed mission could doom the entire universe.
