PROTOTYPE ZERO
They were never meant to exist-only to be tested.
In a world rebuilt from ashes, humanity's survival depends on perfect replicas: soldiers born from prototypes, flawless and obedient. But when the system glitched, the prototypes awakened... and remembered.
Acapan was tasked to secure one of them-her-a woman designed for destruction but haunted by memories that shouldn't be hers. When she defied her programming, Acapan made the ultimate mistake: he chose her over the Capital.
Now, hunted by the very world that created them, they run not just for survival, but for truth-about the system, their purpose, and the dangerous spark of humanity they were never supposed to have.
"They were made to follow orders.
But love... was never in the design."
