The Feeling Underneath
Hidden behind the polished exterior of LGA Hospital, Artificial Humans are engineered and born underneath the building in secret. Male AHs are bred for combat and power, while the females are designed solely for their wombs. Surrogacy. Two-Sixty-Eight - later named Caesar - was meant to be another expendable weapon. But he is different. He develops a Fore-Light unseen in a decade: the power to manipulate blood. The last AH who possessed it nearly massacred the scientists who created him. To the Suited men, however, Caesar is not just dangerous - he is invaluable. A blood manipulator could mean limitless harvested organs, endless transplants, and the power to rewrite death itself for people waiting on donor lists. But then his caretaker, Joseph Collins, commits the unthinkable and teaches Caesar about humanity, about love, and about truths the organization forbids. All to preserve the human part living inside of him. Soon, a flicker of resistance grows within Caesar's heart as New Knowledge of "The Outside" surfaces. He gathers his Brotherhood and they begin to question, to hope, to dream of this forbidden place, that if uttered, could result in Capital Punishment. They bet everything on a dream never tasted: escape. But will they succeed or will the price of freedom be paid in blood? It only takes a spark to start a fire. And this spark is about to ignite hell.Complete
