Kate and Joseph knew one thing for sure; there were secrets far deadlier than the epidemic. Max knew one thing for sure; he was supposed to be dead two years ago. Nina knew one thing for sure; the royals couldn't be trusted. When Princess Kate and Prince Joseph were forced to leave the safety of their castle, they were faced with an ever growing number of problems. A virus, infamously known as the Spider-Virus, was lethal. Within days of contact, the host would be at the hands of death. However, the epidemic would soon be the least of their problems. Or maybe, it was just the beginning. _____________ MILESTONES First started writing: March 3, 2017 Finished first draft: February 18, 2022 Finished final draft: IN PROGRESS
