Tessa never thought she'd see a worldwide epidemic, but The Virus changed all that. After the struggle, terror, and death the world faced, The Test was developed as a way to find a cure to the virus that was ripping society apart. Although this would mean being injected with The Virus and being isolated with another person for eight weeks, Tessa eagerly signed up for The Test for the one million dollar payment that came with it. However, Tessa didn't think that when she was going to be isolated it was going to be with a man, especially one such as Clayton Bane. Clayton kept to himself, leaving Tessa feeling more alone than ever. There had to be something to him that she didn't know. Could Tessa make it through eight weeks with not only The Virus running through her veins, but also with a quiet stranger living beside her?

L.O.V.E.

100 years ago, amidst WW3's nuclear bombing, a deadly virus was released in the atmosphere and nearly wiping out the humanity. It lives inside the human brain thriving on the empathy receptors, leading to irrational behaviour and ultimately brain death. To slow the damage, scientists created L.O.V.E, short for Living Off Vital Emotions, a nanovaccine that numbs the virus and switches off all strong emotions. As a last resort and with a dying planet, the Supreme Government created the City, a place to contain the infected survivors suitable for the experiment. Those in the first stages of illness became ideal candidates to receive the neuroinhibitor. Having their feelings restrained and their memory altered, those who come of age are designated a life partner through a Selection process, thus preserving the humankind. A few decades after the trial had started, scientists had a major breakthrough. The nanites, which are highly chemically reactive organisms, are changing their bio-engineered purpose when dopamine levels are high. With a new generation of nanoids, stronger and smarter to fight the battle, the virus doesn't have a chance. Many attempts were made to create a man-made version of synthetic dopamine and each time the outcome was a disaster. Their goal is to create new generations, immune to the virus. These are called Purebloods, the offsprings of those who find pure love, the only cure to save them from a violent death. Running out of time, the Experiment entered in its final stages. To minimize the threats, the Colonies have sent their best soldiers to oversee the trial and protect its key subjects. If only things were going according to plan, or better...stay hidden. With Iron Guard, the resistance outside the walls, hunting the Purebloods too, will the trial save human race before it's too late? #3 in #dystopianfuture (27.06.2020)
