The Fortunates

“I’d hold on to us until this world fades into the next.”
“And when that world dissolves into another?”
“Eternity is a long time, but it’d never change how I feel about you.”
He’s a complex man, Kaden Sario.
He doesn’t know if he wants to help me bring the new world into light or play ignorant and plunge this fragile society further into darkness.
He claims he’s capable of love and that he isn’t like them, but sometimes I see no difference.
There’s a restlessness growing in the pit of my stomach, and I can’t ignore it. Something big is coming, and I refuse to be on the wrong side when it hits.
I finally understand that, in this brutal society, it’s kill or be killed.
