After The Contract

In a world ruled by machines, contracts matter more than people.

Kira survives by never asking questions. She takes the job, completes the mission, disappears. That's how you stay alive.

Until one assignment changes everything.

Lila was supposed to be delivered.

Instead, she was released.

Now Kira is on the run, from the System she worked for, from the consequences of her choice, and with a girl who refuses to be left behind.

This is not a story about saving the world.

It's about two people learning what it means to choose each other in a world where attachment may be the most dangerous thing of all.
