Jian knows what it costs to care.

A year has passed since he learned the secret that destroyed his former Triad. Determined never again to become so vulnerable, he returns to active duty hoping to rebuild his life and leave the pain of the past behind.

Heredis Corporation has other plans.

Rare, valuable, and owned by the corporation that created him, Jian is bound to a new Triad with two Modified Humans he never wanted. Though he opposes the arrangement, the connection soon proves impossible to resist. As the conditioning takes hold, he finds himself entangled with partners whose lives?and futures?have become inseparable from his own.

But Jian's unique immune system has made him valuable to interests far beyond Heredis Corporation. Sought after by competing groups eager to exploit his biology and the future it represents, he struggles to navigate the constant surveillance and manipulation that define his life. When unknown forces strike at the heart of his new Triad, the people he has come to care about become targets.

For the first time since losing his original Triad, Jian has something worth protecting. To keep Liss and Aundrey safe, he must exert what influence he can over forces far larger than himself. But as choices dwindle and danger closes in from unexpected directions, the stakes become impossible to ignore.

The bond was imposed upon him. Protecting it may cost him everything.

Set in a future shaped by pandemics, corporate power, and sophisticated psychological manipulation, Immunity Bond is a character-driven science fiction novel about trust, belonging, responsibility, and discovering that some connections are worth the risk.
