"Sometimes we call it hate because love would have ruined us." They used to be inseparable... two boys against the world, bound by a friendship that felt like forever... until it shattered. Now, years later, Kairav Sinha is everything people expect, charming, reckless, the college football captain who doesn't believe in staying. And Ishaan Sehgal? He's the opposite, cold, composed, the student president who built walls no one dares to cross. They've learned how to ignore each other. How to walk past without stopping and how to pretend there's nothing left. But when they're forced into the same space again, it doesn't feel like nothing. It feels like unfinished conversations. Like words that were never said.... Like something that never really ended. And maybe it didn't, because the more they try to keep their distance, the harder it gets to ignore the way their eyes linger at each other... the way it stings to see the other with someone else... the way hate starts to feel a little too much like something else. Maybe some things don't fade or leave. Maybe... the boy he learned to hate was always the one he couldn't let go of.

There's no way he's about to kiss me right now, I thought to myself. But slowly he made his way towards me, my heart now racing, and my palms now started sweating. He stood in front of me, leaning close to my ear. "Looks like the universe is trying to tell us something," Ethan whispered in my ear. He cupped my chin with his big warm hands and slowly inched his face closer to mine and I could feel the heat of his lips against mine. "Don't worry," he said reassuringly.

In a world where human touch is outlawed and intimacy is manufactured, will they dare to fall in love? On New Earth 1, love is extinct. Natural reproduction is a crime. Every need-physical, emotional, sexual-is fulfilled by Pleasure Mutants, synthetic beings designed to obey. They're sold, used, discarded. And no one cares. No one except Lial Moreau, a boy born illegally into a system that was never meant to let him survive. When a Pleasure Mutant saves his life, Lial devotes himself to fighting for their rights-even if it means standing alone. But when a job interview lands him inside Taboo, the most powerful Mutant production facility on the planet, Lial finds himself face-to-face with its ruthless owner, Alaric Mason-untouchable, inhumanly perfect, and entirely focused on profit. Alaric is cold, calculating, and Lial gets under his skin in all the wrong ways. And yet... there's something between them. Something electric. Something ancient. A bond that defies logic-and may not be entirely human. . . Updates- Sunday, Wednesday, Friday
