I had four names in front of me, and the system expected me to decide which one mattered most.

Kael Draven. Lucien Vale. Darius Kane. Zane Mercer.

The warning remained suspended in my vision, each line bright enough to make the others seem insignificant.

[UNSELECTED PARTICIPANTS MAY NOT SURVIVE THE EVENT.]

My stomach tightened.

The system had called this a priority rescue authorization, as though choosing who deserved help first were an ordinary administrative task. It had reduced four living m

  • The APOCALYPSE bows to my FOUR MEN!   Chapter 34: The First Bond Is a Choice

    Chapter 34: The First Bond Is a ChoiceDarius hadn't woken up.The infirmary staff said his condition was stable, but none of them could tell me when he'd regain consciousness. The patient he'd treated had survived the night. Darius, meanwhile, remained under observation, his body paying for a decision he'd made alone.I hated how familiar that sounded.“You're going to make that chair collapse if you keep staring at it.”I looked up. Kael stood in the doorway, his arms crossed. His expression was controlled, but his eyes moved briefly to my bandaged shoulder.“I'm not doing anything to the chair.”“You've been sitting there for hours.”“It's a very interesting chair.”“Odette.”I sighed and pushed myself upright. “Darius is stable. The medics are watching him. There's nothing else I can do right now.”“Then you should rest.”“I've heard that before.”“And yet you continue to ignore it.”I gave him a tired look. “Perhaps everyone should find a more original way to express concern.”Ka

    I woke to pain.It settled deep in my shoulder and sharpened whenever I moved. My head throbbed, too. The rescue came back to me: the trapped survivors, the failing support beam, the blow that had sent me to the floor. And the system's new ability analysis, which had arrived with more questions than answers.“Don't sit up.”Darius's voice came from beside the bed. He was on a metal chair, his medical bag open at his feet. Shadows darkened the skin beneath his eyes.“I was only testing whether the bed had become more comfortable,” I said.“Has it?”“No.”“Then don't test it again.”He checked my pulse, then examined the bandage beneath my shirt. His touch was careful, his expression focused.“Your shoulder is badly bruised. I don't think anything is broken, but the strain and the blow to your head mean you need rest. No lifting, no sudden movements, and no using that new ability until we've worked out what it does to you.”“I wasn't planning to activate it.”“You say that now.”I accep

It had reduced four living men to entries on a screen and handed me responsibility for whatever happened next.I tried to dismiss the interface again.Nothing changed.“Odette.” Kael stepped closer. “Tell me what you're seeing.”I hesitated.The recording had exposed my real name. My memories were unreliable, and Aurelia's strange recollections suggested that the system could reach into people's minds without their understanding. Now this new mission wanted me to make a decision before I even knew what danger was coming.“

    The recording had said my true name.Not Odette Turner. Cameron Reed.For several seconds, I couldn’t hear anything except the pounding of my heart. The laboratory lights flickered overhead, and the old console continued to hum, indifferent to the fact that my entire understanding of this world had just cracked open.Kael was the first to speak.“Cameron Reed,” he repeated slowly. “Who is that?”I had prepared for questions about my predictions. I had prepared for suspicion about my storage ability, my knowledge of the infected, and the death record that claimed I had never been alive.I had not prepared to hear my former name spoken aloud by a man who had just kissed me.“It’s me,” I said.Lucien’s eyes narrowed. “That answer raises more questions than it settles.”“I know.”“Then start explaining.”Kael lifted a hand before Lucien could continue. His attention remained on me, sharp but not hostile.“You don’t have to tell us everything at once,” he said. “But we need to know whether

  • The APOCALYPSE bows to my FOUR MEN!   Chapter 30 : The Story Knows My Name

    Zane’s eyes stared back at us from a photograph taken years before I had ever met him.Four boys stood beneath laboratory lights, their faces too still for children. The label beneath the image read: LANTERN COHORT 04 — FOUR SUBJECTS. OUTCOME: SEALED.Lucien leaned closer to the screen. “I’ve never seen this picture.”“Do you remember the room?” Kael asked him.“No.” Lucien’s voice had lost its usual ease. “I remember pieces. White walls. Questions. A door that wouldn’t open. But not this.”I wanted to ask whether he remembered the other boys, but the answer was already written in his expression. Whatever had happened here, someone had made sure the records couldn’t lead him back to it.A burst of static crackled from Kael’s radio.“—anyone—” Darius’s voice broke through. “We’re in the lower lab. Mercer’s with me. Aurelia too. We found a door that locked behind us.”Kael grabbed the radio. “Give us your location.”A series of knocks followed, then Darius’s voice again. “Can’t get a cl

    The code pulled me toward a narrow passage beneath the eastern loading yard.Kael kept pace beside me, one hand on his weapon and the other holding the radio. Every few steps, he tried Lucien’s channel. Each time, static swallowed his call.“You’re certain this is the route?” he asked.“No. I’m certain the signal pointed here.”“That’s not the same thing.”“I know.”He nodded toward the next junction. “Then we keep checking.”The passage sloped down to a reinforced door with a keypad and a faded symbol: a circle crossed by three short lines. The same mark Kael had found beside the hatch.“The classified symbol,” I whispered.“And a door somebody wanted hidden.” Kael tested the lock. The keypad was dead, but a service panel hung loose beside it. The wiring had been cut, not burned out.“Someone disabled it from this side,” he said.“Or wanted people to think the door was unusable.”He glanced at me. “You’re getting good at assuming the worst.”“I’m trying to stay alive.”We found a man
