Description
"It's funny, isn't it?" He laughed bitterly. "Look at me. I was raised to rule millions. To live a life of luxury and power. And I don't even want it." He stalked toward me, like a predator hunting its prey. Suddenly, he reached out and touched my cheek, his eyes shining with something much softer than hate. "Look at you. Raised to live a life of simplicity. And smart enough to overthrow an entire nation." ******** A disease has swept the world; so far, it has eradicated 90% of all plant life. In the beginning, Earth was thrown into an all-out free for all. In order to survive, massive walls were built and vast armies were created. Within these territories, new governments were formed and new groups of scientists began frantically working to figure out a cure. Besim has five zones: Z, A, G, X, and C. Each zone is dedicated to a specific trade or trades that individually help preserve humanity. Lillith is from Zone X, a scarcely-respected zone which houses basic teachers and those who preserve the Arts. She is exceptionally gifted at the Sciences and, as a result, graduated her Principal Basics two years early. Because of this, she is forced to take part in a top-secret program that results in an impossible future, an unexpected romance, and a dangerous discovery that will change her life- and the world -forever.
