   ❝ Sometimes what kills you
       doesn't make you stronger. 
       It only leaves you broken. ❞

NOX Laboratories began as a scientific corporation specializing with chronic illness treatment and prevention. But with the invention of the I.V.E. Cure - an injected serum that could build immunity to every known disease - things took a turn for the worse. Something straight from a horror story started happening: people began to morph. Extra limbs, altered behavior, modified abilities, the list goes on. 

Now a government superpower, NOX Laboratories is intent on taking advantage of the world's drastic condition. Nations are willing to spend billions if it means creating a cure, and Dr. Seth Nox is more than willing to accept their payments. But someone is suspicious of his actual objective. 

Alessia White. An adept apocalypse survivor and a professional in sarcasm. She knows something devious is happening behind the scenes with the corporation, and she's determined to find out what. Unfortunately for her, someone else is after the same thing. But the roots run much more personal with him. 

To get what she wants, Alessia must be thrown into the mix of a battle she's not prepared to fight.
