I’m a leader.

Mostly, I’m the woman every man on this planet should fear.

Chapter 1

Jai

Entering the main ward, my lips part, and my eyes can’t touch on everything fast enough.

Holy crap!

“Stay at my side,” Chance says. “People aren’t as welcoming here as at the outer wards.”

“Okay.”

Where everything is clinical and pristine in the ecocity, various colorful stores decorate the street of the main ward. Something called a tattoo parlor, a hairdresser, clothing – everything from sparkling fabrics to the black outfit I’m wearing.

There’s so much to choose from.

“It’s different. Right?” Chance murmurs, laughter flirting with his voice.

My reaction probably amuses him, but I’m too awestruck to care.

“Yeah,” I breathe, my gaze flitting around like a butterfly that’s discovered a field of flowers. “It’s incredible.”

As Chance’s fingers wrap around mine, a woman shrieks, “Chance, baby!”

He lets go of my hand and spins around, just in time to catch a girl with the longest legs I’ve ever seen. She wraps her legs around his waist and plants a hard kiss on his mouth.

My eyebrow pops up, and my lips part at the sight of another woman wrapped around the man I’ve grown close to.

The thought never crossed my mind that I might have to share Chance. Especially because there are so few women, and they are the ones who are usually shared.

Don’t jump to conclusions.

“I’ve missed you!” she beams at him, her pretty face covered with dark makeup.

She’s wearing the shortest pants I’ve ever seen. They hardly cover her rear, and the ripped t-shirt isn’t much better. Bangles clink on her wrist, and golden loops hang from her ears.

There’s an overwhelming stabbing sensation in my chest when Chance hugs her. It’s unlike anything I’ve felt before, and I don’t have a name for it.

I feel many eyes on me, and glancing around, it’s to see every man passing by us staring me up and down.

Uneasiness crawls down my spine.

I don’t like being out in the open like this, especially with the other woman shrieking with happiness and drawing attention to us.

After too many seconds have passed, Chance sets the girl down on her feet. I watch as they smile at each other, then he says, “Morgan, it’s been a while. How are you?”

Morgan. I haven’t heard that name before, but somehow it suits her.

She hooks her arm through his, leaning against him in a way that makes my stomach tighten and my heart shrink.

“Great, now that you’re back,” she beams at Chance with an expression that doesn’t sit well with me. “What do you think of my hair?”

Patting the back of her head, she twirls in front of him. The purple-black strands are cut short on one side, and long white hair hangs across her forehead and right ear.

“Ah… It’s different.” Looking a little uncomfortable, he asks, “Have you seen Warrick?”

“Always business and no time to play,” she pouts before smirking. “I wouldn’t mind watching you kick his ass to win a night with me again.”

What does that mean?

I pucker my lips for a split second before I realize I’m imitating her. Not comfortable with the emotions the scene evokes in my chest, I turn my attention away from them and decide to explore the closest store. That way, I can get away from all the men looking at me.

The past week at the smaller ward made me forget I’m a rare commodity because Idris, Kenzo, and the other men treated me like I was one of them, not some breeding machine. Or a hole to stick their dicks in.

After I learned the truth about sex from Chance, it disgusts me that all the women in the ecocity are subjected to the shock of finding out the hard way.

And none of them have spoken up about it.

From USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling author Michelle Heard, comes a new, full-length Dystopian Romance novel.

Over the past five decades, the dome over our Ecocity has protected us from the deviants living in the forbidden territory. Since the great war ended, our lives have consisted of virtue and order.

Once a year, seven people are sent out to the forbidden lands to see if there are any deviants worth saving. None have returned, only increasing people's fear of what lies beyond the safe border of the dome.

When I’m chosen as a crusader, the world, as I know it, is ripped from under my feet. In the forbidden territory, I learn things I never dreamed existed – a world I’ve been totally oblivious to. I meet people who freely show emotion and affection. People who dare make their own choices.

It’s frightening and the opposite of everything I’ve ever known.

Suddenly, I have to fight for my life. I’m thrown into chaos where time is running out to become a skilled fighter who will be an asset for the coming war. But my mind’s bombarded with questions – who’s right and who’s wrong? Which side should I fight on?

I don’t belong in this world filled with cruelty and depravity.

Author’s Note:
18+ ONLY.
This book contains mature language, graphic violence, and explicit content.
CRUELEST OBLIVION is book #1 and ends on a cliffhanger. SWEETEST AWARENESS will conclude the duet.

Chapter 1

Jai

On my way to the haven where the healing center is situated, I stare out the window at the ecocity. It’s the only home I’ve ever known, as I was born and raised inside the dome.

It always looks the same.

Sigh. Nothing ever changes.

There are smaller concrete buildings, the older ones that weren’t torn down and replaced with new shiny skyscrapers. The haven is the tallest building, completely made up of solar windows that reflect green and blue. It’s where the curers, scientists, enforcers, and emissaries are situated.

Our ecocity was cleaned up after the fifth world war when everything was destroyed. From what I’ve learned in my history class, it was a brutal war where only a few survived. No one won, and too many died. Mankind was almost driven to the point of extinction. The animals and most of the vegetation, plants, and trees weren’t that fortunate – they were all wiped out.

All that remained were DNA samples scientists had managed to keep in a secure location from the deviants. That location is now the laboratories where my father works, at the heart of our ecocity, the haven.

Sometimes I get the feeling everything is just too much. Too perfect. Too controlled. It’s a bubble waiting to be popped.

Letting out another sigh, my eyes lock on a billboard, and I automatically read our laws for what must be the millionth time.

Always sacrifice yourself for others.

Do not be greedy or prideful.

No emotions, affection, or touching are to be shown in public.

No unauthorized relationships between men and women.

Obey the emissaries and virtues without question.

Do not overindulge.

Always give of yourself without expecting anything in return.

Do not show annoyance or anger.

Be considerate and mannered.

Together we will prevail.

We will not repeat the errors of our ancestors.

Be blessed.

I resist the urge to roll my eyes because it feels like the virtues are constantly being forced down our throats.

There are seven billboards in total, strategically placed across the metropolis. Not only do they show the virtues, but they also convert the atmospheric humidity into water because the single river we have running through our ecocity isn’t nearly enough to provide for all the citizens' needs.
