The Resurgence Chronicles

A cracked concrete wall in ash grey, split by a jagged fissure from which a glowing orange chain of DNA-like nodes rises like a spine. A grey city skyline stands silhouetted against a solid orange horizon at the base.
Ixe was created to survive a world already dead. 

			They never expected to die for it. 

			Six hundred years after The Collapse, Earth belongs to the modified: humans built, not born, raised by machines inside walled cities. When the original humans return, they don’t come in peace. They arrive with guns, experiments, and orders to erase the new world’s children. 

			One failed choice to protect someone they love leaves Ixe imprisoned inside the enemy’s machines—reduced to a body to be studied, dismantled, and rewritten. 

			Their escape comes at a brutal cost. 

			Pulled between loyalty, loss, and a dangerous bond with an enemy soldier who refuses to let them die, Ixe is forced to confront a truth far darker than their captivity: every power that ever claimed to protect them has been lying. 

			And when the chance for revenge finally arrives, Ixe will have to decide how far they’re willing to go to end the war… 

			Even if it means becoming something they can never come back from.

A weathered stone-grey background frames a circular emblem woven from a chain and a flowering vine, cradled from below by two dark silhouetted hands reaching up from the bottom edge.
In a world where women are measured and ranked, survival is a cruel lottery. Nines and Tens are used to breed. Ones and Twos are discarded. The rest are sold as mates to a society that sees them as property. 

			Nine’s life was defined by her role as a breeder—until a single birth left her infertile and cast out. 

			Sarah has lived under the rules, forbidden from having children—but now she carries a life that could cost her everything.

			Outcasts in a world that refuses to protect them, the two women must rely on each other to survive. Hunted by the State, Nine and Sarah forge a bond born of necessity that changes everything they thought they knew. But as they steel themselves for the inevitable, fate steps in and the women are forced to face the price of their oath.
