Humans came, they conquered, and they made her people their slaves. Their first mistake was thinking that a race of predators would be easy to take. The second was ignoring her. Now, she’ll show her people how to rise up and take what they deserve.
When Salryc Luxx turned eighteen, she bit a military officer. That was the first step.
To humans, her species is just another resource. Seen as little more than beasts, the lives of iliri and iliri crossbreds are cheap and easily replaced. Sal was raised as one of their pets and has spent her life dreaming of the day she can be free.
It won’t be easy, but she has a piece of paper that admits her to the trials of the Black Blades, a group elite soldiers who do the jobs no one else can handle. Their success is exactly what she needs to prove her people are more than just something to throw away. Then a voice leaks into her mind. Evidently, there’s a lot more her species has kept secret – and the Black Blades have been hiding it in plain sight this whole time.
She’s going to have to change her plan. The sweet scent of humans, the lure to claim a mate, and her desire to see her commanding officer drop his eyes are becoming a problem. If she wants to prove that her people deserve freedom – that she deserves it – she has to stop acting like a beast. There’s just one little problem.
Humans aren’t her masters, they’re her prey.
Like all the books in the Rise of the Iliri series, this is a complete epic science-fantasy novel, without a cliffhanger.
Like with many complex stories, things do not start out in a happy place.
EVERY MAN WANTS HER. MANY WANT TO KILL HER.
Good luck to them…
For the first time in her life, Sal has a place to belong, and it feels so right.
The iliri live in packs.
The Black Blades is hers.
But humans see them only as a military unit, and one with a little too much influence. To keep the “scrubbers” from gaining an advantage, humans will do anything – and none of it good. The only people they can trust are themselves.
But this time, they need help. Eight elite soldiers aren’t enough to stop the bribe headed to Anglia. If that country gets two thousand kilos of steel, it’ll change the tide of war, and the Conglomerate of Free Citizens will be caught in the middle.
The Black Blades have to trust someone, but their only options are humans. Hopefully, their “friends” aren’t as dangerous as the enemy.
HER ONLY CHOICE IS TO CHANGE HER WORLD…
The leaders of her own country despise her kind. They assume that Salryc Luxx and every iliri crossbred are nothing more than expendable. But, if they can do the job, then the Conglomerate of Free Citizens is happy to use them. They win either way.
So they sent Sal to Anglia without pack. She can no longer hear their thoughts and can’t smell her brothers. It’s just her and Cyno killing their way across unending expanses of snow-covered mountains. Her mission is to assassinate the current king and replace him with someone sympathetic to the Conglomerate, but Sal wants more.
And she gets it. In a land where iliri are a myth, she’s treated like a hero. Here, the people don’t know they should hate her. All they know is that she may be the only thing standing between Anglia and the Terran Empire. To them, she may very well be their salvation.
If she’s going to do this, she’ll make sure at least one government on the continent supports her people. She just has to figure out how – without getting herself killed. Lurking deep in the icy wilderness may be the answer she needs. And it speaks her language.HER ONLY CHOICE IS TO CHANGE HER WORLD…
