Drift Would – Third Scene Of The First Chapter
The countdown to Drift Would’s release day continues! I’m sharing scenes from the first chapter as we wait for its release on July 23rd.
You can read the first scene of the first chapter here:
https://tasteofcyn.com/?p=12015
This week I’m sharing the third scene.
***
“You might need more firepower.” Repercussion grabbed the missile launcher that had been strapped to his back. “I gave one of these to Second.” He gazed down at the weapon and sighed. “It’s a duplicate of the missile launcher Captain’s female wields.”
Captain’s female was a Valkyrie. Her kind were fierce warriors and had excellent taste in weapons.
Repercussion looked at Drift. His gaze shifted to Cure. Then it returned to Drift.
“You should take it.” He held the missile launcher out to Drift.
“I can’t take it, my friend.” Drift was honored by the gesture. The weapon meant something to the male. “It’s yours.”
“I can modify another one.” Repercussion shrugged. “It took me fifteen planet rotations to do that properly with the first one. This second one took twelve planet rotations. The next one should take an even shorter duration.” He gave Drift a sheepish smile. “And you’ll need it to protect your genetic match.”
Drift didn’t project he’d meet his genetic match. “Our mission is to destroy the weapon the Humanoid Alliance is fabricating.”
“You’ll need it for that also.” The male beamed. “You can never have too many missile launchers.”
Repercussion loved to fight.
As did Drift.
They were cyborgs. Their kind was manufactured for battle. Waging war pleased their design.
And both Drift and Cure had to prepare for conflict.
The Humanoid Alliance processed only one language – violence. The enemy wouldn’t allow their superweapon to be destroyed without a fight.
“We can never have too many missile launchers.” Drift accepted the gift.
The weapon would add more weight, but it was necessary.
He slid the missile launcher into the cargo hold.
***
By the time Drift and Cure left the battle station, the cargo hold of their modified freighter was full. Cure had stocked the space with more medical supplies. Repercussion had supplied them with additional weapons. And Yum had provided them with another container of Pirx berry-flavored nourishment bars because, he shared with Drift, females liked them.
Despite the added weight, the modified freighter, with its improved engines, reached giddily fast speeds during the first portion of the voyage. Drift didn’t have sufficient open space to truly test the engines’ capabilities, but he was thrilled with the results thus far.
When they reached the debris field, he had a smile plastered across his face.
He also had sensors stuck all over his form, including the insides of his cheeks. Cure had decided to run a series of experiments, and Drift was his test subject.
As long as it didn’t interfere with the speeds they reached and it made the medic happy, Drift tolerated the poking and prodding. Though he was grateful Grid and Argot and the rest of his brethren weren’t present to see him looking like a fraggin’ fool.
“Your heartrate is decreasing.” Cure pointed his handheld at Drift.
“I’m slowing our ship.” Drift, unfortunately, had to do that. Strike, via transmission, had informed them that Strike’s female’s kind would be contacting them before they entered the debris field. “The Syndiculs should be—”
The lights on the modified freighter’s console flashed.
“That must be them now.” Drift opened communications.
“You have entered space temporarily controlled by Syndiculous 5.” A human female’s face appeared on the main viewscreen. Her gaze met his for two heartbeats and then shifted upward. “Identify yourself.”
“This is Drift and Cure.” He answered for both of them. “Strike, our brethren, has obtained authorization for us to cross the debris field.”
“Pilot Drift. Medic Cure.” The female smiled. “Yes. We’ve been notified of your request.” Her gaze returned to his forehead. “The Ministers of Intergalactic Relations have also informed us that speed is of the essence.”
“Speed is essential.” And it was greatly enjoyed. Drift smiled back at her.
The female said nothing. She continued to stare at his forehead.
“It’s a sensor,” Drift explained.
“What?” The female’s cheeks flushed with pink pigment. “I mean…what is a sensor, Pilot Drift?”
“The blue square stuck to the middle of my forehead is a sensor, my new human friend.” Drift grinned. He must look like a disaster. “All my responses during this voyage are being monitored to benefit cyborg science.”
“Cyborg medical science.” Cure corrected him. The fool appeared pleased with himself.
“Cyborg medical science.” Drift laughed. “Give Medic Cure a couple more moments and he’ll have you hooked up to sensors also.”
The female’s eyes widened. “A path has been blasted through the debris field,” she hurriedly told him. “Follow our ship and we’ll lead you through it.”
She really didn’t want to end up looking like him. Drift struggled to contain his mirth. “We’re following your ship.”
They weren’t following it quickly.
The human female was flying a standard EE284 survey ship. And she flew it cautiously.
But they traveled faster through the debris field than Strike had flown, according to the database. There was wreckage on both sides of them. Strike would have navigated through cluttered space similar to that. Their path, in contrast, was clear, it was direct and it was safe.
It was also unexciting. Even the mines that had been set along the far edge of the floating wasteland had been removed.

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – July 7
I shared the second scene of the first chapter of Drift Would, the second core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series, this week! Ohhh…we’re getting closer and closer to release day and I’m super excited about that. I can’t wait for you to read this story!
I continue to slowly, slowly, slowly craft the first draft of Claiming Cure, the third core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series (releasing in November). My excitement is building for this story also. There’s SO much action…and love…and a few jokes.
Have a wonderful week, my friends. (big hugs) Get excited about something. It could be the plans you have for a quiet evening at home or the ice cream cone you got at the beach or the first bird song of the day. Passion is great. It makes life more…well…exciting. (laughs)

Drift Would And Traveling Light
If you had to travel light, what would you bring with you?
In Drift Would, Drift tells Cure they should travel light. Drift wants to break speed records and they have to arrive at their destination as soon as possible.
Cure states that a huge piece of beloved medical machinery is essential. Yum tells them excess nourishment bars and containers of beverage are necessary because they might find their genetic matches while on the mission. Repercussion fills the cargo hold with as many weapons as he can fit into it, deeming those to be important for success.
The result is the opposite of traveling light. (grins)

Drift Would And Outside Perspectives
One of the (many) things I love about writing and reading series is seeing other beings’ views of main characters.
In Strike Zone, for example, Strike believes Drift doesn’t like anyone else touching the flying-related systems on the Dauntless because he’s protective of the ship.
Drift IS protective of the Dauntless and everyone on board the ship.
But his issues with other beings touching his controls is because he is intent on breaking speed records. That’s his main amusement, one of his primary goals.
He would like to set ALL the speed records. Everywhere. (grins)

Gardening – Planning For The Winter
This year, I planted oregano, thyme and sage in three containers. I plan to bring them inside the house over the snowy, cold winter.
I also hope to bring at least one bell pepper plant, several geraniums, some petunias, and a begonia.
Yes. I’ll have quite a few plants to overwinter and that’s why I’m thinking about where I’ll place all these plants. Because I only have a few free sunny window spots. Plus only one grow station.
And that grow station will be needed for seed starting.
I might have to expand the growing area in the basement i.e. install another large grow light. (smiles) That’s not a bad thing.

Muse Food – Reflections
The Dear Wonderful Hubby took this beautiful photo in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. I love the way the pier is reflected in the water.
Reflections in stories can be as powerful, as emotion-tugging.
The heroine remembers the first words the hero said to her and those words mean something different at the end of the story. A baddie tells his victim she reminds him of someone from his past. The hero thinks back to his childhood, the last time he was truly loved.
Use reflections…sparingly…to increase emotion.

Drift Would – Second Scene Of The First Chapter
Drift Would releases on June 23rd! 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=12015
This week I’m sharing the second scene.
***
“We should travel as light as possible.” Decreasing the weight of their load would lessen the strain on the engines.
The heavier the items they conveyed, the harder the cargo-securing mechanisms had to work. That redirected more energy from their key systems.
The incremental power usage was admittedly slight, but every little bit counted when a pilot was seeking to break universe-wide speed records.
Cure stared straight ahead of them. “I’ll need some of my equipment.” His tone was flat.
“You won’t need the Rayan Skin Restorer.” Drift teased the male. “It’s too important to risk on a dangerous mission.”
The Rayan Skin Restorer had been a gift from Power, the leader of the cyborg council. It was huge and heavy, and Cure treated it as though it could be damaged by merely breathing on it. That piece of equipment was one of the medic’s prize possessions.
“My contact’s patients could benefit from the usage of the Rayan Skin Restorer.” Cure lifted his chin.
“That massive machine of yours has already been wrapped with the buffering materials you specified. And it has been securely stored in the modified freighter’s cargo hold.” Repercussion joined them as they entered the docking bay. “Twenty missile blasts couldn’t dislodge it.”
“There’s no need to limit the modified freighter’s speed.” Drift wouldn’t have that restriction.
“Captain relayed that speed was necessary.” The big male strolled with them toward their ship. “We’ve loaded the same assortment of weapons Second took with him.” Strike had located his human female before he could complete the mission they would soon embark on. “Multiplied by two.”
That would double the weight and make breaking modified-freighter speed records a greater challenge.
But Drift liked challenges. His good mood didn’t dim.
“You’re stocked with sufficient nourishment bars for six beings.” Yum slid a container of those treats into the cargo hold. “And beverage sufficient for four humans. Some warriors have two genetic matches.” He winked at Cure.
“You’re fortunate bags of bolts.” One of the other males expressed his envy as he walked by them.
“My contact is not my genetic match.” Cure’s voice raised ever so slightly.
Drift stared at the medic.
With any other being, the fluctuation wouldn’t have been noticeable. But this was Cure. The machine-driven male never showed any emotion.
It was the equivalent of a malfunction.
Regarding his contact. That relationship was crucial to their mission.
The being was a medic on their target planet. Cure had been communicating with him primarily via auditory feed, but that relay happened many times a planet rotation.
Drift, in contrast, hadn’t communicated with the being he was to meet on Cancri B. At all. There had been no rapport, no trust manufactured between them.
He didn’t process if that connection was possible. There was an 84.2577 percent probability the male, from what Drift’d gathered from the intel, was a thief. And beings holding that role didn’t freely share information.
The mission was already fraught with difficulties.
But he said nothing because those were their difficulties to overcome.
And he’d garner no sympathy from anyone else.
The warriors situated around them longed to undertake such an assignment. There would be danger, action, and the possibility of meeting their genetic matches — the beings they were manufactured to protect, love, and fabricate offspring with.
That possibility was extremely unlikely, and it was adding weight to their ship.
Drift watched, powerless, as Repercussion continued to stuff containers into the cargo hold.
“Extra flight suits, in an array of colors and sizes, have been stocked.” The male’s excitement was palpable, and Drift had no impulse to dampen it. “And four lifeform-blocking cloaks are packed. We received another delivery of those. Other essential supplies have been included.”
That list was transmitted to Drift and Cure. There was an excessive amount of medic equipment on it.
You do process our mission is to kill the enemy, not repair them, yes? Drift teased Cure over a private transmission line.
My role consists of repairing. The medic’s reply was devoid of any humor. Your role consists of flying fast. Captain processed our skill sets when he chose us for this mission.
Drift had no answer for that. Because their captain did process their skill sets. And he had chosen Cure as Drift’s mission partner.
He couldn’t push back on the loading of the medic equipment.
But he could have some fun with it. Then you’ll need more pain inhibitors. I plan to put a lot of projectiles into any Humanoid Alliance beings we detect.
Cure said nothing.
Drift grinned.

A cyborg and a spy fly into danger.
***
Drift is one of the best pilots in existence, and he has been assigned a perilous mission.
The G Model cyborg must fly to a distant planet, locate the sector-destroying superweapon the enemy is projected to be developing there, and obliterate that threat to the universe.
When Drift arrives at his destination and meets with an informant, he’s distracted by a mysterious human female seated in the shadows. She’s Drift’s genetic match, and she is the one being he’s destined to care for, claim, and protect.
She’s also a liar and a thief. And she might be working with the enemy.
Trusting her could kill him and everyone he cares about.
Liar. Thief. Seductress. Saboteur. Roshini has been called all of those things. And she has earned each label. She’s done some terrible things to safeguard the beings she loves.
A gray-eyed cyborg warrior with nimble hands and a shared need for speed won’t stop her high-risk activities.
She’ll sacrifice everything, including her lifespan, to complete her self-appointed top-secret assignment.
***
Drift Would is a standalone, enemies-to-lovers, Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features a cyborg who loves to break speed records, a human spy with a talent for changing her appearance, and a foe intent on killing them both.

Drift Would And A Road Trip…In Space
Drift, the hero of Drift Would, the second core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series (releasing in July), is going on a road trip…of sorts…with Cure. Their mission is taking them deep into a neighboring sector.
And into space. Their ‘road’ trip is not via an actual road.
But the feel of it is sort of the same. They have long distances to cover. They’re trapped in a small vessel together with time to kill. They have snacks. (grins) Snacks are an essential part of all road trips.
I suspect by the time Drift and Cure reach their destination, they’ll know quite a bit about each other. That’s part of the road trip magic also.

Planting Cauliflower
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I have been experimenting with using cauliflower as a substitute for rice.
It isn’t exactly like rice but I do like it.
(grins)
So we’re planting cauliflower in containers, hoping we’ll have enough summer (and fall) before the first frost to harvest some heads (that sounds gruesome, doesn’t it?).
If the cauliflower aren’t ready in time, we’ll bring them inside the house, put them under grow lights and hopefully that will be okay.
