#2 – Instinctual
Black Blades are the best special operations unit in the Conglomerate of Free Citizens, but none of them are free. They’re iliri, a race of humanoids specifically designed to be the perfect soldiers. No one can remember where they came from, but the histories say they were made to kill – and it’s what they do best.
Halfway across the continent, the Emperor of Terric wants to exterminate their entire species. At least that’s the excuse he’s using to conquer every country between Terric and the Conglomerate, and he’s handing out iliri heads as trophies to prove he’s serious.
But now, their secret is out. The world knows the Black Blades aren’t human. They’re so good because of their alien ancestry, because of what humans made them to be! The only problem? It’s starting to look like their own side agrees with the enemy. To keep their unit from being disbanded and sent back into slavery, they have to stop the Emperor’s bribe. Eight of them aren’t enough. Their only hope is to rely upon the humans they’ve learned not to trust, but things are never black and white.
#3 – Defiance
High in the mountains of Anglia, Sal and Cyno face an impossible mission. This archaic country still has a line of succession, and it’s up to the two assassins to make sure their chosen candidate inherits the crown. That means killing the king – and the six people between him and the Marquis of Valmere. If they can manage that without getting caught, then they still have to convince the new ruler to sign an alliance.
It’s the kind of mission that will get them killed.
Sal knows why she was assigned to do this. Parliament thinks it’s a great way to remove the iliri taint from the military. Killing most of the ruling class and then convincing those left that she’s their best friend? It’s suicide! Her own country is hoping to keep their hands clean and get rid of their little iliri problem. But if it will bring an end to the continental war devastating her species, Sal is willing to try.
But Anglia is nothing like the Conglomerate of Free Citizens. They discriminate based on gender, not species. Iliri are thought to be just a myth – until she shows her face. To convince the king and his council that yes, a woman really can be a soldier, she’s going to have to make her own rules. The enemy is moving. She doesn’t have time to deal with outdated court manners
