Justus Roux - Barbarians of Malka (01-05)

1. Protector of My Heart: Robin Stevens never thought that her ordinary life would change in an instant. But when a large barbarian warrior from the planet Malka burst through her bedroom and carries her off to his world, her whole life changes forever.

Niro, the son of the Dascon clan leader Hakan, falls instantly in love with the little female that he was sent to collect. The females on his home planet are few in numbers due to a strange illness that wiped out half of them, still more were lost to the battles that continue to rage between the Dascon and Larmat clans. Though the earth women look as though they might be able to become mates for the strongest of Barbarian warriors, Hakan orders that only two would be taken, to make sure they could adjust to Malka.

Niro claims the right to be Robin’s protector. Robin has no idea that by doing this Niro has proclaimed his love for her and his intentions of wanting to be her mate. The strong-willed Robin must learn to fit into the seemingly male dominated society of Malka. But together Robin and Niro find a love that will joined them forever.

2. A Warrior‘s Will: Alistair’s parents were from two different clans, he was use to being called a half-breed. In fact he was a rarity on his planet most of these half-breed children never made it pass childhood. It was only because Hakan the former ruler of the Dascon clan protected Alistair and his mother that Alistair survived and grew up to be a grand warrior. Now Hakan’s son Niro has appointed Alistair to lead the Larmat clan. Niro’s hope is to finally bring peace to the people of Malka by joining the two clans.

Anne Jacobs has spent the last year trying to find the people responsible for her parents’ murder. It is clear the motivation behind this heinous crime is hate. Anne who was training to become a vet, drops out of school and devotes all her time to helping the police. On the anniversary of her parents’ murder she finds herself being kidnapped by a large barbarian warrior named Demos and his mate Nina. She is taken to the planet Malka where a warrior named Alistair is to be her protector. After she is told that she would be able to go back to Earth in six months she agrees to meet this Alistair. Her resolve to ignore Alistair quickly dissolves when she lays eyes on him. Their instant attraction to each other paves the way to acceptance and healing.

4. A Warrior‘s Heart: Tomar, the ruler of the Rundal people, discovered a planet called Loma. This planet has the same problem as the planet Malka, but in reverse, where as the Malka people lack females the Loma people lack males. Tomar is excited and travels to Loma to start talks with the Empress. Yet, when he arrives he soon finds that he may have made a mistake wanting to introduce the Loma females to the Malka males. The Empress wants Queen Rhaya’s village destroyed because of the male child born in that village. No male child has been born on Loma for a hundred years and the Empress sees this as a bad omen. Tomar uses his ships to transport the villagers to safety on Malka. But he stays by the Empress’s request.

On Malka the young warrior name Zenith has been chosen for the honor of being the trainer to Niro’s son Zenos. He gets introduced to the warrior women of Loma when Queen Rhaya shows up to meet with Niro. Petra the Queen’s guard is instantly attracted to Zenith, even though he works her last nerve by his arrogance. On Loma smaller, weaker males are desired, but Zenith is large and strong just like all the male warriors on Malka. Niro soon finds out his warriors are having trouble adjusting to the strong female warriors of Loma.

Ramiro, the son of Tomar, has been best friends with Zenith forever. He was named the grand general of the Rundal warriors. His duty is to train the Rundal warriors to fight along side of the barbarians. His older brother Alamaxa is being groomed to be the next ruler of the Rundal people and with Tomar away Alamaxa becomes the acting ruler. His first act as ruler is to command his brother Ramiro to choose a mate. Ramiro doesn’t want a Rundal female but is most curious about the human females. However, it is forbidden for a Rundal male to be with a human female.

Laigne, the weaker male servant to Niro’s mate Robin, can’t believe it when a large beautiful Loma female wants him. On Malka being a weaker male was the most undesirable thing there was. Weaker males in the Dascon clan became servants and playthings to the large male warriors which was considered lucky for in the Larmat clan they simply killed the weaker males.

5. The Barbarians of Malka: Zenos, the son of Niro, has turned nineteen. He wanted nothing more than to become Flora's protector. However, thanks to Alamaxa, the new ruler of the Rundal, Zenos must win the Trials to become the protector to the female he has loved since he was a child.

Colt, the adopted son of Ramiro, has fallen in love with Niro's daughter Rose. Though, she is only fifteen and way too young to be a male's female, Colt knows she is the female he wants to be the protector of. Colt is from the Larmat clan and there is no way Niro will allow a Larmat male to be considered as a potential protector for his daughter when she comes to age. Colt wants to start now proving that he is a worthy male for Rose. The moment she turns eighteen, he wants to make her his female.

Alamaxa is filled with bitterness, and it has been amplified by the death of his mother. He wants the Rundal to become the rulers of this planet. He feels they are far more qualified to rule than the barbarians are. He plans to reignite the Great War between the Larmat and Dascon clans of the barbarian race. There is only one person standing in his way and that is Niro.
