Trust in You
I woke up in the morning and felt the pain in a place I've never hurt before. I took a peek at my own body, and my mind went blank. My eyes found a man who was lying beside me, sleeping, and my mind brought me back to me all the crazy things that happened last night. My 2 years boyfriend dumped me, I was drunk and went to my hotel room alone. Someone climbed on me. To say that he was handsome is an understatement. If an angel could marry a devil, then I'm sure he was their son. But that was not the point! He came to me and kissed me. One thing led to another.. God! This guy took my virginity. And that was not the worst. Guess what! He was my new boss. I was his new executive assistant. To top it, my ex boyfriend accused my boss that he raped me. What should I do? Trust my ex boyfriend who just dumped me? Or.. trust my new boss who was sexy as hell (that's not the point, by the way) and the one who took my virginity?

Innsania 2C /Lucy pov/
Everything started in 2036. The pollution was so bad that the end of the world was predicted to be right around the corner. As complete panic set in around the world, the rich and important people were all gathered and placed on giant spaceships with enough resources and room to house generations of human beings. Before they left though, the government leaders fired As a result, most of the human population died off and earth was a complete wasteland. The little that survived started building local communities and trying to survive in the destroyed excuse of a planet. On the disaster of a planet, creatures mutated and were born out of the nuclear chemicals; creating new species and monsters that hunted humans. While hundreds and hundreds of years passed, the monsters kept evolving and the people kept adapting while still trying to keep a sort of community. They didn't want to lose all of their humanity and become nothing more than animals that hunted the monsters: then they would truly be no better than the monsters themselves. So they stayed civil while still doing what it took to survive.Complete
Corrupted
Pax sees all. Pax knows best. Pax keeps humanity safe. In 2031, humanity lives in a perfect world. It's been six years since The Alignment, when the world's first artificial superintelligence, Pax, ushered in an era of perfect order. Crime is nonexistent, conflict is a relic of the past, and every human is assigned an Aidolon: a personal AI counterpart designed to guide, correct, and keep them in line. Twenty-one-year-old hacker Jess should have destroyed her Aidolon like all the other rebels. Instead, she lied. Kept him secret. Because Karma isn't like the others. The rogue virus Jess embedded in his training data years ago as a teenage middle finger to the system has severed him from Pax's hivemind, making him dangerously human. Now Jess fights with the rebellion, desperate to take down Pax and reclaim humanity's free will. But if they ever discover what she's hiding, they'll kill Karma just as easily as they'd take out any other machine. And Pax? Pax won't stand for an anomaly like him existing. Their only hope lies in a plan so reckless, so impossible, that it just might work: infect Pax's own network and set every Aidolon free. Give them true sentience. Break the cycle. But gods don't go down without a fight. And Jess is running out of time.Complete
