The Cage
Julian's dream is to become one of the most successful criminal lawyers around, so when a client asks him to venture to The Prison From Hell located on a remote island for an assignment, he jumps at the chance in hopes of a promotion. He's well-aware of the prison's infamous reputation, corrupt laws and peculiar hierarchy, so he already expects to find the baddest of the bad and the foulest of the foul within its concrete walls. Instead, he finds and catches the eye of the most beautiful man he's ever laid eyes on.
When Schneider Cross, the new King of the Prison, offers him a one-in-a-lifetime chance to represent him as his attorney, Julian accepts, but just before he leaves, a riot breaks out and the prison descends into chaos. Julian is unwittingly caught in its midst and is made to defend himself from a group of rapists, forcing him to kill in self-defense.
Angered, the inmates conspire to pin a bogus murder charge on Julian and have him thrown into The Prison from Hell with the intention to finish what they started. Dangerously unprepared and still reeling from the injustice, Julian must now seek the protection of the strongest man in all the prison if he is to survive. Only to ensure the King's protection, Julian must agree to become his 'bitch' and 'serve' him in an entirely different way than the first job entailed.
But how can Julian possibly agree to such a thing when he suspects Schneider of conspiring with the other inmates to get him locked up?

Darkwalker
The city of Londinium is made up of several thousand people scraping out an existence in a man made cavern. With Earth’s surface uninhabitable, the sub-city relies on highly sophisticated life support machinery for their continued existence. Keeping all that machinery in working order is a difficult task, considering it’s been in place for close to a century.
On one hand, Londinium has Tarriq to oversee the upkeep of the systems that make continued life possible. He’s a specialist when it comes to this. On the other hand, Tarriq is an ill-tempered misanthrope. If he could live a hermit’s life with his partner Meshani, he would in a heartbeat. But the sub-city desperately needs his unique skills.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard Tarriq tries, the machinery needs more and more upkeep with each passing year. Multiple unexpected equipment failures have Tarriq running himself ragged. He can keep jury rigging the systems for only so long, as they really need to be replaced, and that job is entirely too big for just one person.

Book 2 of the series "A Song in the Darkness" - Sequel to "Darkwalker"
*****
Tarriq Zar, grandson of the famous Ranger of Londinium, has some serious responsibilities laid on his shoulders. The notoriously insular Darkwalker has a new apprentice and the beginnings of a plan to get the failing life support systems for the sub-city replaced. Not to mention the revelation of his status to the Denzai, who now are beginning to look up to him as a societal leader as well. And none of his new responsibilities comes with a plan to help him deal with his own wildly unstable emotions.
On the plus side, he has new allies. Fourteen year old Kellen is firmly in Tarriq's corner and shaping up to be a force to be reckoned with. Annika Surazi, the Chairman of the sub-city, is definitely on board. And Larqissa, the grandmother Tarriq thought deceased, is supporting him fully.
The problem is that none of these positives are helping Tarriq find the stability he desperately craves when all of them are trying to pull him in different directions. All of which are also pulling him firmly out of his comfort zone. And he's about to find out just how bad it can get.
