Story Notes

I thought of this story 10 years ago when I was just out of school. I tried to write it. More than once and it just fell short. I recently started writing it again and the words just flowed.

Summary

After everything falls apart, Katinka walks away. Away from the camp. Away from the people who almost felt like home. Away from the violence she can’t unsee. All she has left is a single purpose: find her mother, and return to the life they once had. But the world outside is not empty—it is fractured. Small towns cling to survival. Camps form their own rules. And every system demands something in return. When Katinka reaches a fork in the road, she is forced to choose: the path back to safety… or the unknown. Because sometimes going home isn’t as simple as turning around. And sometimes, the things we leave behind don’t stay there.

Rianna Reid: This story was amazing! I love the romance between Lily and Zee. It was so cute while being spicy at the same time. The different world was also a nice touch! I only wish that we got more of a showdown on Earth, but besides that, a fantastic midnight read!
