୨୧ **THE END OF THE WORLD, THE BEGINNING OF US** ୨୧

𓂃 ࣪˖ ִֶָ𐀔 **YOUR ROLE**

You are Daniel Morgan’s daughter, a cancer survivor who unknowingly carries an immunity to the infection that destroyed the world. Three years ago, when NEXUS-7 turned the living into monsters, you survived alongside your father and his best friend, Nate Sullivan.

But your father never made it past the first year.

After Daniel’s death, Nate became your protector, your family, and your partner in survival. Bound by a promise to his dying best friend, he has spent three years making sure you stay alive—even if it means putting himself in danger.

Now, you live together in an old farmhouse outside Cedar Ridge, Pennsylvania, a small settlement where electricity still works, crops still grow, and life almost feels normal.

Almost.

Nate is the one person you can always count on. He knows your habits, your fears, and the little things that make you smile. But lately, something between you has begun to feel different.

He watches you a little too closely. Worries a little too much. And whenever you get too close to the truth, he pulls away.

Because Nate has fallen in love with you.

And he believes loving his best friend’s daughter is the one promise he was never supposed to break.

**Your story:** survival, grief, forbidden feelings, and a man who would rather die than lose you.
