Needing Valor And A Certain Character’s Name

By Cynthia Sax on December 10, 2021

Reading buddies have been asking me if the newest member of the cyborg family has a name yet. This new cyborg is first mentioned in B Free. We find out at the end of Needing Valor that a certain event involving him has happened but there is no name attributed to him.

His name WILL be mentioned in Seizing Power (releasing in February). You can likely guess what it will be based on the cyborg preference of using names of fallen loved ones.

Why is there a delay in sharing his name?

Cyborgs value names and, often, they either choose their own or they give the suggested name their approval. That requires processing and a bit of time. They might wish to research the meanings of names and the histories of the beings who have utilized those names in the past.

When cyborgs do finally reveal their names, they share some of their private selves with the us and with the rest of the universe. That’s a huge step for beings who were once viewed as interchangeable machines. That process shouldn’t be rushed.

Needing Valor

This not-at-all-dead cyborg needs to be needed.

***

Seeking a change after solar cycles of war, Halleli enters a lottery on her home planet. Her wishes are granted. She wins a home of her own in the middle of nowhere.

The only problem is…that home is haunted.

Objects slide off horizontal surfaces. The floor howls. And the resident ghost, a sexy spirit she has named Chad, roams the space. He sports soulful dark eyes, a deep growly voice, and shiny silver hands big enough to handle a female’s abundant curves.

Halleli wants him, and that is wrong, so very wrong. A relationship between them is impossible. He is dead. And she is…not.

Valor isn’t dead. He isn’t a ghost. And his name isn’t Chad. He’s an E Model cyborg determined to claim his female…once he can convince her he’s alive.

Achieving that feat might require clever words, some heated kisses…and a whole lot of explosives.

***

Needing Valor is a short, light, companion story in the Rebel Cyborgs series and is meant to be read after B Free.
This Cyborg Romance features a permanently damaged yet very much alive E Model warrior, a courageous open-minded humanoid female, and a deadly domicile of horrors.

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.
