What would you do if the world had only six months left?
The world descends into anarchy as Perseus-21 speeds toward Earth, threatening destruction; economies collapse, riots break out, and hope is all that remains.
Amidst all of this, Anton Cruz, a devoted and diligent Filipino exchange student, balances late-night food deliveries with his aspirations to spend one final moment with his family. Ellaine Carter, a former supermodel and daughter of a billionaire, conceals her mounting sadness beneath a façade of fame and fortune.
What starts as an unexpected friendship turns into something neither of them could have predicted when their worlds collide quite literally over a poorly executed food delivery.
Together, they traverse a collapsing globe, come to doubt their belief in fate, and learn that love can shine brightest in the darkest sky, even when humanity and hope is on the verge of extinction.

Those who were taken...
They never came back, dragged beneath the waves never to return.
Their haunting screams were a symbol of their horrific deaths.
Like shadows they lay in wait, the deep blue waters hiding them from view.
With sharp claws they attack,
Pointed fangs tearing into skin,
Eager mouths devouring human flesh.
Cally was taken, dragged under the water by one of the vicious creatures. But she was not devoured nor torn apart by ruthless claws--no.
She was a captive.
~•~
Water instantly invades her senses. Her eyes sting, her lungs and nose burning. She thrashes, kicks, claws--anything to get away. Her efforts go to waste as her body slowly starts to shut down, the air in her lungs quickly being replaced by sea water.
Cally is vaguely aware of arms wrapping around her waist and behind her head before she loses consciousness, submerged in darkness.
And so she is taken.
Another victim of the mysterious sea.
