The first rule is not to break the streak.
If you do, you're dead.

The mysterious green owl of Duolingo has achieved worldwide digital ubiquity. A language learning app that initially seemed harmless, over the years has become a must-have for all citizens to survive in today's world. 

A world in which completing a daily lesson is the only wild card for survival. Lose all five hearts and you are dead. Run out of experience points and you're dead.

On his twenty-first birthday, Aaron finds an old pocket watch whose hands have stopped at 23:59. That same night Aaron forgets to do his daily lesson, but the next morning everything seems normal... or so he thinks.

Time waits for no one, unless you know how to mess with it.

( MATURE READERS ONLY) He scoffed, "No idea what you're talking about..." I snickered and lifted my head up narrowing my eyes at him, "What do you want?" He grinned triumphantly, He was very light weight as he sat ontop of me. I restrained well though, as long as he didn't start moving a lot and sat in just one place, i was able to restrain. "I wanna give you a hickie" he said not looking at me and instead around the room. I looked at him , not expecting that. "That's what you want for your reward?" I asked surprised.

In the beginning, there was death. The darkness flows from hues of purple and orange, the moon rising to kiss the sun's rays one last time as the darkest cloud of night I've ever seen falls over our tiny haven. I catch Will's face from the side of my vision and my heart tightens slightly. The tick of his jaw wouldn't be noticeable for anyone but me. His best friend, his lifeline. A solemn tear forms in my eye as he wipes his face, another tear falling for the family he lost. I love him. Utterly and desperately so, but, there's nothing I can do about that. The ultimate forbidden fruit, if you will. I reach to comfort him and he doesn't respond. I open my mouth to speak and he looks my way, but the gleam in his dark brown eyes hits the moonlight just right and I fall. My voice escapes my throat and I can't do it. I've tried for years to tell him. 10 years, actually. All this time, I hopelessly remained devoted to a ghost who had given the best of himself to a fiery red-head with a sassy personality and the body of a supermodel. For 10 years, I held to the desperate thought that maybe, just maybe, he'd be someone I could count on. Instead, I watched him marry my best friend, smiled as they welcomed their son. Stood, holding that beautiful boy as his mother was in the first round of executions after the beginning of the Revelation. Helped heal Will's wounds in the aftermath. Cried, clutching the tear-stained shirt of my best friend as his son took his last staggering breath in that first harsh winter. The guilt of my emotions crawl through me. My heart twisting in regret, guilt, desperation, and grief. I loved my best friend. She was so much more than that; she was my family. In this dystopian quick read, join a group of people desperate to recapture their freedom and end a tyrant's reign.

Two years later, Athena finds herself stuck in a military compound surrounded by friends and foes. Everyone holds secrets, even her. With mutants with the ability to read minds, to control your behavior, or to copy you, will Athena be able to save her friends and herself or will her mind and world crumble around her?
