15 parts Ongoing MatureBefore the world went to hell, Cassidy "Cass" Ramos lived fast, fought hard, and loved harder-even if she never said it out loud. A firefighter with paramedic training, Cass had always run toward the flames. She had a reputation in Austin for being tough, fearless, the kind of woman who never backed down. But to the Miller family, she was something more.
Tommy called her his ride-or-die. Sarah adored her-looked up to her like the older sister she never had. And Joel? Joel was the quiet ache in her chest she never figured out how to silence. They danced around each other for years, pulled together by something deeper than friendship, but always stopping just short. Even Sarah used to joke, "Just kiss her already, Dad."
Then came the outbreak.
Then came Sarah's death.
Cass tried to hold Joel together as the world fell apart, but he started slipping away-and with him, any piece of hope she had left. For ten years, they tried to survive together, tried to build something from the wreckage. But Joel shut down. And eventually, he shut her out.
So she left.
She walked away from Joel. From FEDRA. From everything.
Out in the wild, Cass became someone else. Hardened. Silent. Dangerous. Survivors started calling her "Red"-a name born from the blood she spilled, the fire in her eyes, and the signature red scarf she never took off. It was simpler that way. No past, no weakness. Just Red.
When Marlene found her, she didn't see a broken heart-she saw a weapon. And recruited her.
Another decade passes. Then a job comes her way: escort a teenage girl named Ellie to a group of Fireflies. She won't be going alone.
Joel Miller is on the job too.
Ten years of distance. Ten years of silence. Ten years of buried pain.
He's stunned when he sees her.
She's furious and confused when she sees him.
Together, they'll protect a girl who might be the world's last hope. But can they face the ruins of what they once were-and what they still might be?
