No Match Found

The clock on the inside of my wrist started counting down the seconds until I met my match. Something was off about it though. No one was in the room. Thirteen more seconds. Still no show of my supposed match. Four more seconds to go. I ran my fingers through my hair. One second. I held my breath and looked around, than heard a slight buzzing noise. I looked down at the clock embedded in my wrist and saw a message.
"No match found."

It was 3027, and technology had excelled greatly.
I had prepared myself for the day I found my soulmate.
Then my life took an unexpected turn.
The impossible happened.
I didn't have a match.
With no one to be matched with, I was turned in to the king to be experimented on.
With the threat of death over my head, I promised myself I would find other people that had no match and protect them from what I had gone through.
That's when I met James. He came from a place where people didn't have timers to find them a match.
We set out on a mission together to help unmatched people find refuge, until James got kidnapped.
The only way to get him out was a ransom: I had to give all of the safe houses locations to the government so they could do more experiments.
I had two options: turn innocent people in, or let James die.
The fate of hundreds of people was in my hands, and I didn't want it.
