Science-experiments cerita

When I woke it was to people in lab coats with an inexhaustible supply of needles and a disturbing fascination for me - I wished I hadn't woken. If only I had stayed in my forever drifting coma. If only I knew who awaited me, who would test my physical and psychologically boundaries: Him. At first he was cold and remote - unreachable. But something about my abductor attracted me to him, and him to me. Though I couldn't understand our incongruous bond, and even though I had become his science experiment, each day he would come back to my prison, like a man to water, thirsty for my presence. When Zoona had woken in an unfamiliar place, it was not one that welcomed her and quickly she learned she had been caught in a terrifying situation of being a science experiment. As she strives to survive for her life she forms a conflicting attraction towards her kidnapper, a desirable man. Soon she has the feeling that their connection isn't coincidence, but something far more impactive and dangerous. It was not chance that she had been taken, or her pull towards him; he had been searching for her for years.

In Kyber, everyone has a neural implant that allows them to interact with the society around them. These implants are vital to everyday life, especially in Kyber City, where life and tech moves fast. If you can't afford to upgrade, you're left behind, then forced to leave the city that you can no longer interface with. You head to the lower levels, and you do what it takes to survive. For Rebecca and her friends, all with the previous generations of implants, surviving means entering the technically illegal tournaments held in the lower levels. They use their implants' built-in security, a totally personalized suit of armor synthesized from light and energy, and battle for prize money to hopefully make it another week or two. Rebecca, Gabrielle, and Elaina are three sisters who live with a class of armor that isn't supposed to exist. As far as the public knows, 'guardian-class' armor was destroyed years ago, or possibly just never existed. To keep themselves hidden they typically stay behind the scenes and avoid 'armoring up' while in public. It's gone well for the past four and a half years. Then Wesley almost dies, a hacker brings down an 'invincible' tournament network in a few minutes, and suddenly the secret of their armor is out and someone is offering a reward for their armor that just so happens to be exactly what the winner of the tournament would have received. Suddenly on the run, forced to confront how little they actually know about each other, the team relies on new friends and old connections in a hunt for the truth of what's really going on in Kyber City, why the three girls were created, and what happens next.
