Imagine the second you're born, a consultant removes you from your mother's grasp and runs a battery of genetic and physiological tests on you. Thirty minutes later they give you a score out of one hundred which denotes your level of perfection. If your score is above eighty and you work hard to maintain that score you will have a charmed life; well fed, well-rewarded, spoiled. But fall below eighty and you're labelled Flawed, and life will not be so kind. Hannah is adopted by a Flawed family when her birth parents choose their social standing over their daughter and endures a life of struggle, hunger and service. One day Hannah is escorted to the regional government office and told that the Consultant who delivered her, who labelled her Flawed got it wrong! Now, she is being relocated back to her birth parents, to live as one of the Ninety-Five- all medically and legally judged as perfect. Entering this new life Hannah has an impossible decision to make which puts not only hers, but the lives of everyone she cares about at great risk.

#128 in new stories!! And # 513 in adult!!! It maybe nothing for yall.. but for me that's amazing!!! "Cassandra, listen to me. Cassandra!" I felt him slap my face. My eyes flew open, and I saw his two, beautiful green eyes only inches from my own. "Cassandra, do you trust me?" What was he mumbling about? Of course I did. With my life. "August, I love you." I said while trying to smile at him. The last thing I remember was seeing two sharp as hell, pointy teeth shoot out from his gums, and then felt him sink them deep into my neck. And then, the blackness won. Cassandra has not had the best of luck the last few years. After FINALLY ending an abusive relationship, she loses her mother to cancer. With nothing left to lose, she packs up just what she need so get by, sells or stores everything else, and heads out on the road. Who knew one single meeting at a diner, would change her life forever. This is a story of love, strength, loss, and a woman finding the power within herself to win a war, inside herself, and against monsters she never even knew existed. And all while finding love deeper than she could have ever dreamed of. ● All Rights reserved
