(Imperium Saga, Book 1)

Know your enemy before you pull the trigger.

Edith Stewart just wanted a simple life with her family. But, thanks to her twisted society, her plans were forced to change. Being randomly selected to be the test subject of a dangerous experiment wasn't her idea of a simple life, but refusing to cooperate puts the lives of her family in danger.

But she was deceived. Her husband and son shot right before her eyes the moment before she's sent forward to a different reality. A future unlike anything she could have ever planned for. The Synthetic Revolution of Life, or the SRL, was the true result of the experiment. Synthetic life, people, have taken her world. It was the creators of the SRL that sent her here, and even though they've all been dead for 177 years, maybe their technology can send her back to before the world ended. 

Taking a direct stand against the SRL seems like a death sentence, but with the right friends, it's bound to get a little easier.

Between by immoralLaurel
32 parts Ongoing Mature
She's panting, flushed and breathless like something from another century. It hurts to look at her, so stunningly alive in a way he isn't. Almost smiling, too. She has the kind of lips that need undiluted devotion. "You've always looked at me," she breathes. Yes, and he finds himself thinking about ruin. The right kind, like his knuckles against her jaw to shake her apart. He thinks about ruin the same way he thinks about freedom because maybe, in another life, he brushes the hair off her shoulder and whispers, 'Eyes on me.' Maybe, in another life, they have time. 𝑫𝒐 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒓 𝒊𝒕? 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒄𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒎𝒔 𝒃𝒆𝒕𝒘𝒆𝒆𝒏 𝒔𝒊𝒍𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆. She isn't his to protect. Not his to watch over. Not his to love. He's a cop, she's taken, and rules are rules. But Faro Wyatt has mapped every freckle on her nose and dreamt of how she moves. His resolve is weakening. When his radio crackles with a single call, he's breaking every rule from here on out. *** Their worlds collide on fault lines of pain. Police uncover a dangerous network of corruption. Love is forbidden, justice demands sacrifice, and the stakes have never been higher. How far is anyone willing to go to protect the things they love?

Centuries of war left the world in ashes. Nations fought endlessly over dwindling resources, turning families against each other and weaponizing everything-from bombs to bioweapons to genetics itself. The once-vibrant continent of Virelia, an expansive supercity, became a desert. From this devastation rose Rafri: a new nation ruled by five powerful corporations, promising to guide the survivors toward a fragile peace. Centuries later, Leandra's life seems perfect. Heiress to Virelia Biotek, betrothed to the striking Elias Kael of Nexacorp Systems, she is cared for and protected despite her medical ailments. In the city of Ephyra, she has everything a girl could dream of-until a simple DNA test shatters her world. Her parents aren't her parents; she was stolen. With her parents offering no answers or explanations, Leandra does the only thing she can: she runs. Potoo's life is simple: they steal, they fight, they eat, and then they wake up again tomorrow. In the slums of the outer ring of Ephyra, it's every man for himself, and Potoo liked it that way. That is, until someone with white hair and piercing blue eyes turned everything upside down. Suddenly, survival isn't just about the streets anymore-they're being hunted, and dragged into a mystery involving a girl whose life may change everything. As secrets unravel, Leandra and Potoo discover the truth is far bigger than a stolen child. It's a truth that could heal their shattered world-but only if they survive long enough to see it through. ------------- Status: Hiatus :(
