32 parts Complete MatureA dystopian thriller that evolves into a violent sci-fi nightmare with hints of monster (very) dark romance.

Alice has a good life: a great job, a cozy, paid-off apartment, and a loving husband.
She also has an oppressive government, a war-torn city, and general social decay around her, and what seems to be an alien invasion, though nobody is willing to admit it.
You know, the kind of things that can really throw a wrench into a morning commute.
She should have left a long time ago, but right or wrong, it's her country. What's the worst that could happen?
No, seriously, what's literally the worst?

It starts as my lightest and most melancholic work, but will end up the heaviest -- expect constantly rising tension as we go from moody dystopia into politics and philosophy into bdsm and violence, and into... oh well, read it.
Overarching themes: evolution, adaptation, duty, freedom, metal music.
The first 10 chapters are a clean, dystopian, political story. From 11th chapter on, wheels come off.
I tried to make it sound universal; still, you can figure out approximately when I had it first outlined.
Warnings (from chapter 11 on): violence, attempted SA, dubcon, smut.
