They are 8′ tall identical twins who share everything #Excerpt Origin of Pietas by Kayelle Allen #SciFi #MFRWhooks

Kayelle Allen 09/01/2021 Character Insights 6 Comments

Six Meets "The Twins"

"So what's the deal?" Six jutted his chin toward them. "Are these guys clones? Do they always finish each other's sentences?"

"Ultras are created in pairs, so technically, everyone is a twin. Few exceptions. But... Armand and Philippe were created during one of the first experiments. Back before we were called Ultras. They're the only survivors. We don't talk about it around them. When our people say 'the twins' they are usually talking about them, or about my sister and me. Remember I said two trusted guards watched our family? That was them." He started to move away, stopped himself. "And no. They don't finish each other's sentences. In fact, who speaks first is the best way to tell one from the other. Philippe finishes Armand's sentences. He never speaks first. Armand never speaks last. Each says the same amount of words. If a sentence has an uneven amount of words, Armand says the most. It's uncanny. I've never figured out how they manage it."

"What does Armand do if Philippe isn't around?"

"You will never see Armand without Philippe, or Philippe without Armand."

"Must make it hard to meet women. Or are they just interested in guys?"

"Like I said, Ultras are open about sex. In fact, I think my parents are one of the few monogamous pairings. The guys meet plenty of men and women. They might not be scientist material, but their bodies are perfect. And like everything else in their lives, they share. Fights break out over who has a chance to be with them."

"Get out." Six gave the twins a long, appraising look. "Weird."

"Among my people, Six, the twins don't even crack the door on weird."

The brain-embedded chip would save him. Right? #SciFi #SpaceOpera #FreeBook

Kayelle Allen 08/21/2021 Fallen Empires

When Tornahdo signs on the dotted line, he puts his life into the steady hands of the mighty Ghost Corps. Three grisly deaths and three agonizing resurrections later, he's assigned duty on the space station Enderium Six.

He's facing his most dangerous mission yet, the very reason the corps exists.

Do they expect him to win? Fat chance. Tornahdo and his team are already dead and this mission is codenamed "Lights Out." No, there's more to this than he can see.

To discover the truth, he must face an unbeatable, unkillable enemy, and this time--somehow--find a way to keep himself alive...

---

In this scene from Lights Out, Tornahdo waits for his ship to dock. The space station they approach is where the peace talks he's been sent to secure are being held. But as the ship nears, he fights with the brain-embedded chip that the Ghost Corps swears gives him complete control.

Excerpt

From the ship's bridge, the space station Enderium Six filled every viewscreen. It occupied busy space-lanes outside the Terran Crescent. A steady stream of ships debarked, heading in different directions. Tornahdo's experience with peace talks was limited but something was...off.

Not a good sign for ending a war.

He reined in that thought. Nothing negative. Nothing sarcastic.

He must not allow emotion to claim victory after learning to suppress it. Didn't matter if his anti-emo chip was malfunctioning or not. When the chip worked, it controlled every aspect of his emotions. When it didn't, he controlled them. He'd done that all his life.

Besides, who but a rank newbie counted on military tech to save his butt?

The general would not be pleased with his current struggle after he'd fought to win her approval. He'd asked himself why he desired her admiration but pondering that question always gave him a headache. He just needed it.

Maybe because his new training permitted a single emotion in his heart. Hatred.

Hardest thing he did. Hating. Wasn't his nature. But ghosts followed orders.

He should not give credence to the niggling doubt that something, somewhere was missing. But grasping the meaning behind the worry? Futile.

He must not worry. He must permit no emotion other than hate.

Ultras controlled the emotions of others. The anti-emo chip blocked them.

The chip kept him safe in battle, faithful as a good soldier.

He must not think of self. Only duty. And with duty came danger.

Only days before, the Ultra's High Council had elected Pietas ap Lorectic as Chancellor. They chose a bloodthirsty, narcissistic megalomaniac with delusions of godhood and a fabled hatred of humans, and then sent him to chair peace talks.

Typical.

Playlist: Music for a King – What You Are (Audioslave) #Playlist #SciFi #PietasFans

Kayelle Allen 08/08/2021 Music to Write By

Playlist: Music for a King — What You Are

I play What You Are on repeat. It fits the character Wulf as well as Pietas. When I was writing Jawk (the third book in my Tales of the Chosen series) I must have played What You Are about 300 times. I dedicated the original version of the book to Audioslave in thanks for the music. But it fits Pietas because of the line “Now I’m free from what you are.” Listen and you’ll see the progression of freedom in the song.

***

Six gazed out at the lake. “I love this place. It’s peaceful here.”

“You say you love it here, but my senses tell me you’re homesick.”

“Well, sure. I miss my family. Don’t you?”

How to answer without a lie? Pietas brushed hair out of his eyes. “I miss what made me sad.”

Six squinted one eye. “How’s that again?”

“When you’re with someone you love, they break your heart. Annoy you. Make you sad. But when you’re away from them, it’s those things that you miss.”

Oh no. This is going to be trouble. Excerpt from Lights Out #SciFi #MFRWhooks #FreeBook

Kayelle Allen 07/28/2021 Character Insights 6 Comments

From across the bar, Ravenstongue sauntered toward him. "Why you here?"

Tornahdo kicked back in his chair. After stretching out his legs, he crossed his ankles. "Why do you care?"

"Big ops tomorrow. Lights out in ten. Time for you to go home and go to bed."

Behind the bar, the keeper closed up shelves and battened down doors.

"Yeah?" Tornahdo flicked a hand toward the door. "I'll follow you out."

"I'm not leavin'. Didn't you hear? We passed inspection with the highest scores. Got a free night out." Ravenstongue jabbed a finger toward Tornahdo. "But you gotta go home like a good boy."

In no kingdom in the galaxy would that happen.

Ravenstongue lifted two fingers, signaling his cohorts.

The keeper ducked behind the bar while the goons flanked their wannabe boss, imbecilic grins in place.

A pair of demons usually sat on Tornahdo's shoulders. The bad demon laid out strategy while the good demon discouraged action. Tonight, the good demon flipped a middle finger toward Ravenstongue with a not-so-subtle suggestion to kick his ass.

Tornahdo took his time rising, slid his chair under the table. "What did you say?"

"I said, 'You gotta go home like a good boy.'"

Hanging his thumbs in his belt, Tornahdo gave him a slow smile. "Go back to the bar, finish your drink and we'll pretend we're all friends and leave together. This is your last chance for a peaceful end."

"Peaceful." With a scoff, Ravenstongue jerked his head toward Short Goon. "You hear that?"

"Yeah. Maybe we oughta do what--"

Ravenstongue jabbed him with an elbow.

"I mean, yeah! I heard that." He leaned closer to his boss. "We gonna?"

"No, you idiot. Shut your face and back me up."

How did these hotheads enlist? Ghost Corps must have been desperate for bodies. Literally. A fighter's corpse they could reanimate. Which was a sobering thought.

Was that what the corps thought of him?
