16 years before Isabella Reyes' Claiming, Vivian Aramore faces the same ceremony, but with a different attitude. She believes with all her heart that her boyfriend Brenden will claim her and they will live happily ever after--growing up in the Family District, that's all she knows to exist: love and happiness.

In a world of black and white, seeing colour is achieved only through physical contact with your soulmate. A pendant acquired at birth has the first words said to you by your soulmate. That's how the world works. Amber Paisley doesn't care for any of this. That is, until she bumps into someone on the street, and colour blooms before her eyes. It's breathtaking, and being without it - it hurts. She is amazed, until she sees who it is that the world tells her is her soulmate. She'd have anyone else, anyone. Just not him. ------------------------------------------------------ #1 in colour #1 in color #1 in prompt #5 in fiction *Contains infrequent mild language* EARLY WORK AND NOT YET EDITED (please excuse any mistakes / a lot of cringe but do still read if you wish!)

All the earth is torn asunder. There used to be grass, and the sun used to be golden. Children played outside, climbing trees with smiles on their faces and grass stains on their knees. People worried about a million things that would soon be irrelevant, continuing without a clue of the disaster to come. Centuries later, what little is left of humanity survives in a society constructed beneath the surface of a glass dome, the world outside converted to little more than a desert wasteland. Survival is a routine rather than an effort, and all rules are surpassed by only one: if you want to survive, you never leave the dome. There's nothing alive out there. The radiation that soaks the earth makes sure of that. Until one day, someone finds a bloody, dust-covered handprint on the outside of the glass. Nothing will ever be the same again.
