    About this ebook

    An innocent trip could strengthen Sara's marriage… or get her killed.

    Marrying into the humans was supposed to be the best thing for a female cyborg, and for Sara, it was an absolute dream, until she said yes to something she knew could be bad, but something she couldn't refuse.

    When Sara joins her husband and his best friends on a trip into the wilderness, the experience is much worse than she anticipated. Even traveling with his best friends, Sara and Jacob may not make it out of this trip alive.

    "The Hunt" is a cyberpunk romance drama, the sixth book in a sci-fi series that features compelling A.I. characters, raw emotion, nail-biting suspense, forbidden love, and surprising plot twists.

    If you loved Westworld, Blade Runner, or Ghost in the Shell, then you'll love to join the characters of "The Cyborg Sectors" on their page-turning adventures.

      THE HUNT

      The Cyborg Sectors Series Book 6

      ––––––––

      by Alex Leu

      ––––––––

      Prologue

      The only thing that will save him now is her death!

      Sara heard the men argue in the distance as she laid low, hiding behind a big rock wall at the edge of a cliff.

      Sara, honey, please come out! a familiar voice called to her.

      You shouldn’t have taken her! yelled a beastly voice.

      Sara held onto the slippery rock face, desperately trying to avoid giving the angry guns chasing her a straight line to her body.

      The sand and tiny rocks under her feet slowly pulled her to the edge of the steep cliff and the sixty-foot fall beyond it. Not lethal for her cyborg body, but not desirable. She was a long way from home, from help.

      Sara’s fingers were slipping from the rocks and she moved sideways along the edge trying to find bigger rock protrusions or cracks to cling on to, trying to avoid the slippery sand.

      Nearby, little rocks grinded against each other under the weight of heavy feet.

      Sara grabbed onto the closest rock protrusion and froze as the sound of the footsteps got closer.

      She waited, holding her breath.

      The footsteps stopped.

      Both sides listening hard, all their senses turned to the max.

      Life or death.

      And then it happened. Sara felt the rock in her hand crack and break away from the rock wall, gravity pulling her body down towards the edge, and there was only one thing left she could do — choose between a bullet or a sixty-foot fall on hard spiky rocks.

      Sara chose the bullet and dropped the rock from her hand and immediately pulled her body up on the next best rock protrusion that also broke under her weight, and then the next rock and the next, until she pulled herself up and over the rock wall that protected her and onto a flat surface — safe from the fall, but out in the open — exposed to the
