In order to avoid new conflicts, solstice gatherings between the groups' leaders were organized-but will they be enough? *** Phoenix has grown up only ever knowing two things.

Strong leadership is in order and although Gerald can provide it, debate and rumors are spread about his chosen companion-Aleu, Stephan's once respected apprentice, now glued to his side in a relationship they never wanted-with no say in the matter.

Satellite by Lilas___

[Tsundere x Reader] One second she was just a simple nurse, tending to her patients and doing her job. Just another Tuesday as she would say. Then the next she dies and wakes up to drug-addicted, violent, and bloodthirsty people (if she can even call them people) attacking her fellow colleagues and anyone who wasn't infected by a strange drug called TAP. (Y/N) gets unwillingly connected to the horrid and mishandled experiments of the large pharmaceutical company known as Satellite and is forced to put up with the rude and immature Drake Blackwell who becomes her bodyguard. She becomes an asset to the company and potentially the answer for all of the harm that Satellite has created. And all it took was a bullet to the head. #1 in scifihorror 9/3/2023 #1 in tsunderxreader 9/24/2023 - I don't own cover art - Minor grammatical errors - Mature Audiences Started: August 2, 2023 Ended: October 29, 2023
