My name is Joann. I'm seventeen years old. I live in the Republic of Gilead as an econowife. I've been married for six months now, and I'm a little over five months pregnant. Some say women like me are among the lucky ones. Maybe they're right. But each of us carries our own burdens-silent or spoken. This is mine. *This story is based in the Novel Universe of The Handmaid's Tale by Margret Atwood. I don't not own the original source material. These characters are my own, I've stayed as close to the source material as possible but as this is a different story, set in a different district, some details will be changed*

"I never thought I would be here right now. The room is empty; devoid of any personality. The sheets are clean, but also plain... I guess I don't need any showing of a personality, not when I am a commodity. You don't need a personality to breed." The story of Serenity Lyons; a once vibrant college student pushing toward a brighter future that gets stuck in the new world that is Gilead. This is her story of survival and finding light in the darkest corners. Disclaimer: I do not own Handmaid's Tale; I only own the created characters set in the world.

The midwife will call it mercy. She will hold a pillow over his face or put him outside for the frigid air to correct this mistake. He was never meant to be mine, but in that moment, I understand how much I love him.

This is why we want to run.

Elodie is the perfect Wife. She's loyal, obedient, she tolerates the Handmaid's, and she complete's her wifely duties. But there is something terribly empty about her life, and she longs for something more, though she doesn't quite know what. And then she meets Ava, the kind, soft spoken Martha that her husband just hired. Elodie finds herself draw to the woman, and they quickly become friends, and then Elodie does something much more dangerous. She falls in love.
