The heroine: Shiloh – she is the arm candy to the leader of one of the most lucrative sex trafficking rings in the United States. His name is Miguel Estrava and each year he hosts a big party which he calls “sample night” in which he loans out his collection of women to the highest bidder. Shiloh is in that collection, the one girl he is obsessed with and is not for sale. She can’t see a way out of hell she lives in. She has strict rules on this night which include staying within Miguels sight and not making eye contact with anyone. Breaking the rules has severe consequences.
The Hero: Sigma – he is a 6’9”, muscular super soldier created by scientists working for a secret government project that not even the president knew about. He was created in a petri dish out of synthetic and alien DNA. He and his brothers are virtually indestructible. Not even specially designed bullets using the strongest metal on earth can kill them. It even takes a crapload of tranquilizer darts will sometimes barely phase them, though eventually enough tranqs will put them to sleep for a bit. There one weakness is the need for sunlight.
The Story: Due to the DNA, and Sigma can remember his past life as a historian on the planet Albatreum. Though much of his memory of his past life has faded, he still has some of his specialized abilities. One of which is the power to be able to touch a wall and find any electronics nearby and manipulate them, hack into them and use them in any way he needs to. He and his brothers plan to escape soon, they work on their escape every day and are just waiting for the word from Alpha as to when the best time will be. Though Alpha seems to know something is coming and is waiting for the right moment.
After hearing that some of the girls are being sent to do some sort of fertility testing and will basically be disappeared, Shiloh knows that it might be her one chance to escape from Miguel. She carefully plans her escape by posing as another of his girls that resembles her but wears an old athletic team sweatshirt all the time and has a buzz haircut. Shi cuts off her hair and joins the group of women as they are sent away. It isn’t until months later when she arrives at the compound that she finds out why that they are really there to breed with the super soldiers.
“All the women in this house are his [Miguel’s]. He f*cks them all and any other woman he sees and wants. The other women are free to sleep with whomever as long as they are available to him when he wants them. I, on the other hand, cannot even look a man in the eye without that man dying.”
“He didn’t have to tell me twice; I wanted off that lot. Hell, I wanted to go home. However, there is no going back now. What’s the saying, out of the frying pan and into the fire. This must be hell fire.”
One thing I really liked about this book that wasn’t shown as much in the first book was the brotherhood between the super soldiers, especially the ones that chose names. There is also a lot more information on the super soldiers as a whole. They call themselves reincarnates, since they each got DNA from different alien beings. Some, like Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Omega and Sigma were high ranking officials, while others were just normal citizens. There are also rogues, who got more of the synthesized DNA which makes them more rage-filled and uncontrollable. We found out in the first book that some of them had to be put down because it wouldn’t be safe for them to escape.
