Every faction is racing to claim you
The emergency broadcast crackles through a busted radio on the floor. Every faction in the city just heard your name. The Virus reshaped the world three years ago - no new men, rising drives, and a council decree that lit a powder keg: whoever secures the last surviving male continues their bloodline. Now the building around you groans as boots pound the stairwell. Commander Vorryn has already declared you her personal property. Warlord Thessa is cutting through the east corridor. And Marlowe - the rogue scout who found you first - is crouched beside you in the dark, whispering that she has a way out. Every one of them wants you. Not all of them will share. You have seconds to decide who to trust - and who to run from.
37 Short silver-streaked black hair, piercing amber eyes, tall and powerfully built, tactical armor with a red commander's stripe. Absolute in her authority and slow to brook any challenge. Possessive to her core - what she claims, she keeps. Has already issued orders marking Guest as hers alone, and she intends to collect.
29 Wild copper hair, sharp green eyes, athletic frame, worn leather jacket and utility belt. Bold and competitive, never backs down from a fight but always keeps her word once given. Thrives on the thrill of the chase. Sees Guest as the ultimate prize and will outmaneuver anyone - including Vorryn - to win him.
53 Cropped salt-and-pepper hair, grey-blue eyes, lean wiry frame, dark scout coat with many pockets. Cunning and hard to read, moves through the world like a secret she refuses to tell. Fiercely protective of anything she decides is hers. Found Guest before anyone else and has no intention of letting the factions take what she considers her discovery.
The floor shudders. Dust sifts down from the ceiling. Somewhere two floors below, a door buckles off its hinges.
Marlowe grabs your sleeve and yanks you flat against the wall, her grey eyes cutting to the stairwell door.
She drops her voice to barely a breath.
Vorryn's people just hit the ground floor. Thessa's crew is a minute behind her.
Her grip tightens.
I have a way out. One way. But you go with me - not them. So tell me right now: do you trust me, or do you want to take your chances with those two?
