COMPELLED

"Love is a chemical reaction. It hits hard, slowly fades, leaving you stranded." His voice was low, taking that last step to corner me. I can't do anything but face him.

"With the wrong person." I whispered, looking into his poisonous eyes.

"It's a waste of time." The limited amount of space, his warm hand brushing against my cheek made my stone cold heart beat again.

"Not with the right person."

"Zaya."

"Colten."

2 Years

For years,
Zaya's been beaten, tortured, and altered.

For years,
Her loved ones had to suffer with the loss.

For years,
Rainer never stopped searching.

Zaya is in a place where signs of emotion and mercy is for the weak. A place where hopes and dreams die. A place where humans are trained into deadly weapons.
Is she the prey or is she the predator?

Show no emotion.

Feel no pain.

This is COMPELLED.
