Handsome, seductive, and athletic, Spartak is a trophy, and not shy about using his talents to survive and protect those he loves #MMRomance #MMReads #GayRomance #SciFi #Dystopian

Kayelle Allen 10/04/2024 MM Romance

The ruling elite see Spartak as a trophy; the people see him as their best hope. By the year 2115, twelve families control all wealth in America, the middle class is a myth, democracy a con game, and the Supreme Court has just legalized a new entertainment option for the bored elite. Spartak Jones is kidnapped and forced to become the first legal slave since the Civil War, a trophy birthday present for the eldest son of the richest family. Handsome, seductive, and athletic, he is not shy about using his talents to survive and protect those he loves.

When war erupts within the ruling class, he proves to be a lethal warrior, fearless, resourceful, and photogenic. His swashbuckling exploits awaken a long-dormant liberal underground hungry to restore democracy.

In a world both familiar and horribly twisted, Spartak becomes a symbol of hope, a flesh and blood icon for an America that used to be and might be again, if he can survive.

Dark, twisted, dystopian, uplifting, and romantic—The Chronicles of Spartak delivers a 22nd century LGBT action hero who will make you cheer.

A riveting tale with a powerful political undercurrent.

Meet the agents of TRAIL from Beneath the Gates #SciFi #DarkFantasy

Kayelle Allen 09/13/2024 Colonies of Man

I plan to write about TRAIL, a company that exists in the far future, and is contemporary with my Tarthian Empire series.
The two do not overlap, and take place on different sides of the galaxy.

The meaning of the acronym TRAIL is Trace, Rescue, and Identification League. However, rival companies and independent agents have their own versions. Most common is Thieves, Ruffians, Assholes, Irritants, and Losers, followed by Their Roughneck Arbitration Is Laughable. The official company response is to grin and bear it, laughing while you cash your fat paycheck. The unofficial response is a quick jab to the mouth. Scars on knuckles are a thing of pride among agents.

The structure of TRAIL is formed loosely around the principle that independence is a good thing, provided it's not taken too far -- or too seriously. Agents report to a Field Director, who reports to the Board, the members of which are ultimately responsible to the President. No more than two steps are ever required for a decision, no matter how weighty. Agents have full authority to act with extreme prejudice if necessary to carry out their missions. That said, any time a death is involved, an outside agency steps in to confirm both the kill and the neccessity for it, occasionally resulting in more scarred knuckles.

The outside agency policing TRAIL's missions which result in a "negative life impact" (i.e., death) is STOP, Synthetic Technicians Optimized for Peacekeeping. TRAIL agents refer to the emotion-denied android group as Suspending, Terminating, and Omitting Pleasure.

TRACE is an officially disavowed department of trained assassins and snipers inside TRAIL, whose motto is "Without guilt." TRACE stands for Target Removal Assistance Classified: Extreme and these agents are the favorites of many world governments.

Currently, TRAIL agents are found in Trailing Kaiwulf, and will be in the upcoming story Return of the Vhalgenn.

“Saying ‘I forgot’ was inexcusable in our home.” #Excerpt Bringer of Chaos #SciFi #PietasFans #MFRWhooks

Kayelle Allen 08/28/2024 Fallen Empires

When I was writing the first Bringer of Chaos book, I looked for songs that evoked the mood on the characters. Remember Everything© by Five Finger Death Punch is a song of pain from the viewpoint of a child who grew up unable to please his father. Early in the book, Pietas faces off against his father, the former Chancellor. As the current Chancellor, Pietas must oversee peace talks between immortals and humans. He and his father are yin and yang--complete opposites on the spectrum. That truth comes out later in a scene between Pietas and his mortal companion, Six.

I forgot...

Pietas dangled a length of fishing line in the water. "How good the weather is on this world. I'm quite pleased with it. If we have to be marooned here, at least we're not facing constant storms or stuck in a desert."

"I hope it lasts."

"You think it won't?" Pietas craned his neck, but in this part of the creek, under the canopy of trees, the sky showed up as blue specks.

"No place has perfect weather. It must rain sometime. Trees don't get as big as these or the creek full without rain."

"Ah, of course. I knew that. My mother is a consummate terraformer. She taught me about the cycles of life and renewal and how planets replenish themselves before I was ten. She made me learn the name of every plant and animal in existence, I think. I got caught up in enjoying the beauty and forgot my lessons."

"You know, Pietas... It's okay to admit you forgot a detail." Six shot him a smile.

"For you, perhaps. Such excuses were unacceptable when I was growing up. Saying I forgot was equivalent to saying please beat me now."

Six chuckled. "Sounds like a tough childhood."

Pietas settled back against the boulder. "My friend, you have no idea."

Tornahdo’s world moved in slo-mo #Excerpt from Lights Out #SciFi #PietasFans #MFRWhooks

Kayelle Allen 07/31/2024 Fallen Empires 5 Comments

In this scene, Tornahdo enters the chamber with seven other ghosts, having been given orders different from the others. Fighting Pietas with only seven others — what advantage can that possibly offer?

The world shifts to slow-mo

As ordered, Tornahdo illuminated the beacon on his chest. Not smart. Pietas would know from the level of brightness how many had entered the unlit room, but there was no sense saying so. Ghosts did what they were told.

Maybe the next team would subdue the Ultra after Tornahdo's crew exhausted him. Assuming there were ghosts left who hadn't been shot by their own leaders.

Inside, as instructed, he stayed near the back. Two of the eight ghosts closed in on the pod.

Pietas lay on the floor behind it. His body showed, not his face.

Tornahdo tingled with a fighter's high. The mix of anxiety and excitement kept his instincts on maximum alert.

Beside Pietas, a ghost stooped. The change in lighting angle showed the Ultra, limp on the floor. When turned, the body flopped. The ghost pressed two fingers against the throat.

With a jerk, Pietas yanked the man down while thrusting a hand up.

A pierce of mindless fear stabbed Tornahdo. He'd faced that snap of terror before. It meant two things. First, the Ultra was controlling their emotions. Second, the chip was worthless.

Pietas tripped the next ghost, jabbed an elbow into his neck.

Another spurt of fear and confusion.

All that training. Days of suffering, learning control. For nothing.

Pietas flashed into speed mode.

Tornahdo's world moved in slow motion.

A blur showed where the Ultra had been. Pietas halted, braced both hands on a pod and kicked a pair of ghosts behind him.

They flew backward. Slow.

Momentum carried the Ultra straight toward Tornahdo.

Stumbling out of the way, Tornahdo went down in a tumble, taking out the ghost beside him, who knocked down the last two.

Tornahdo rolled to his feet, out of range of those long arms and carbon-hard fists. But for how long?

The bandit mask really adds to the “good guy” look #Excerpt from Lights Out #SciFi #PietasFans #MFRWhooks

Kayelle Allen 07/24/2024 Fallen Empires 4 Comments

In this scene, a Ghost Corps official (hiding behind a holographic "mask") is giving Tornahdo and a group of eleven other ghosts the final details of their mission.

The "Good Guy" look

The leader facing them activated a device on his wrist, and a holograph of a room full of lifepods popped into being.

There wasn't a human alive who wouldn't recognize Pietas. Seven feet tall. Slim. White hair. White uniform.

Seriously. Like he was the good guy.

Painted on bandit's mask.

Because yeah, the mask went so well with the good guy look. The sarcastic thought sang pain through Tornahdo's head. He pressed fingertips against one temple.

Pietas clutched his chest, bracing himself on a pod. Slid to the floor. Out of sight.

"You see?" The man shut off the view. "He's out."

Sure he was. Tornahdo ignored the sharp reminder to avoid disagreement.

"Pick up his body and put him in a pod. Each of you will carry a pair of wristlocks. Bind his hands behind him." The man gestured. "Questions?"

The guy in front raised his hand again. "Sir, there's only twelve of us. If he wakes up, that's not enough."

"No? Who agrees?"

Three ghosts beside him also put up their hands.

Without a word, the man pulled out a gun and shot them, one after the other, so fast, they all went down together. Headshots were final. No rebirths.

The air went from thick to non-existent. Tornahdo did not so much as flinch. He needed none of that maniac's attention.

He might not know the other ghosts, but if an enemy put one down like an animal, that person deserved his hate. Like him, his fellow soldiers had trained hard to hate. One slip and they'd be on him like the animals he seemed to think they were.

Chip or not.

The guy holstered the weapon. Had to be standard issue. Guns for Ultras set you on fire. "Anyone else doubt the plan?"

Nope. No more fools present.
