Containing Malice And Reader Feedback
I read all the messages I receive from reading buddies. Somewriters have assistants. I don’t have one. I look at everything myself.
Unless the message is a death threat or something similar, Itry to respond to every message.
If you don’t receive a message from me, it is likely because an email service, either mine or yours, in their great wisdom (
I LOVE questions and other feedback about stories. If youhave a question or concern, there is a good chance other reading buddies havethe same question or concern. Sometimes I’ll answer that question or addressthat concern on this blog, in addition to responding to you directly. That sharingbenefits everyone.
I also often tweak my writing a bit to decrease confusion infuture stories.
In Containing Malice, for example, some reading buddies wereunsettled that Illona didn’t have a conversation with Malice about her HumanoidAlliance-caused illness, about their experiments on her. They’re right. That communicationshould have happened. In the future, I’ll ensure couples (or more) haveconversations about important things like that.
I want to give you the best story I possibly can. (big hugs)That’s super important to me. And your feedback allows me to do this.
Thank you so much!

Containing Malice
This tormented cyborg craves vengeance…and her.
***
Malice, a C Model cyborg, has spent his long lifespan enslaved by the Humanoid Alliance. His cruel manufacturers have hurt him in all the ways a male could be hurt.
His enemy has now added a new weapon to their arsenal—a tiny human medic with soft hands and a delectable scent. She experiments on him multiple times a shift, delivering pain…and frustration.
He wants her. He also seeks retribution.
Once Malice frees himself, he plans to achieve both of his goals, taking Medic Illona captive and ending her research…permanently.
Illona is as much a prisoner as the cyborgs she experiments on. Since her arrival at the Human Alliance’s secret laboratory, she has carefully, stealthily, crafted a plot to free her test subjects. To conceal her covert activities, the medic has been forced to harm beings rather than heal them.
The being she has damaged the most is also the cyborg she fiercely desires— Malice, a huge, gray-skinned, blue-eyed C Model with massive hands and a voice deeper than space. He hates her, has good reason to do so, and, when he’s freed, there’s a high probability he’ll kill her.
Illona will take that risk to ensure he survives.

I disagree, she didn't have to say it, he figured it out on his own and she did sort of mention it later. let's not forget he IS a cyborg with much higher intelligence and cognitive function.
