"I can't." I choke out my words as tears streamed down my face. "You know this was bound to happen soon, better now than later, we can't run forever, Lia." He murmurs against my hair as he hugs me to him. "It's inevitable and you know that." He pulls back from me and takes a step back, his own voice cracking, "You promised. Do it." "I love you." I sob. Clutching to any hope that may be left, but I find none. Tears filled his own eyes but I knew he wouldn't let them fall, thinking it'd only render me weaker, "I love you." . . . 2082, Alastair. Megabuildings, neon filled streets, a kaleidoscope of colors. A city of both dreams and nightmares. All hiding the evil underneath. A word loosely thrown around, evil, it had many forms and shapes, it was at most, what ran through the mega corporation "Daemon". On the other side, "BioTec", perhaps where all the good lies to balance out the evil. Ophelia and Hale. Strangers at first, their objective only one, but betrayal, love and hurt finds them along the way. Unfortunately for them, betrayal has it's fair price in the new world.

Elodie's life changes at the turn of a doorknob when she is forced into joining a secret organization that claims to be protecting the Earth from aliens. But with every step she takes, she finds the organization, or the facility, as they call it, becoming more and more suspicious. When a mysterious death occurs, revealing a well-concealed secret, things quickly go downhill as humanity's future is placed on the shoulders of a single gaggle of teenagers. *** I hear a sigh from the other side of the door, "Miss. Chaucer, you have a wonderful opportunity here, are you going to take it or not?" Now, I am seriously confused, "Opportunity?" She takes advantage of my befuddled state and shoves the door open. Shit. The corners of her mouth pull up, and it's so unnatural, it takes me a moment to realize she's smiling. Major plastic surgery? Probably. Click. Did she just lock the door? She locked the door! I spring towards the house phone, dusty from years of doing absolutely nothing, so I can call the police. I don't make it. Halfway there, I trip on my own pant-leg and face plant on the floor. The woman steps over me and retrieves the phone. She looks at it as if it's a foreign object, "This won't be necessary. All I want to do is talk to you." For some reason, instead of screaming, I stay silent. She smiles and pulls out a chair from the kitchen table for me to sit on. When I don't sit, she says, "If you want to know what's going on, then sit." I think about it for a moment. She hasn't hurt me yet, and I have to admit, I am quite curious as to what's going on. So, call me stupid, but I sit down. "I am from a space organization that protects civilians from . . . outside threats." *** Beautiful cover made by @mahana258! HR: 203 in science fiction (5/8/18) Completed on August 15th, 2018 (Indian independence day!) *******This is not a zombie novel
