Primal Desire
“I won’t eat you, I promise.”
Those words haunt young men like Mark Arroyo. After surviving near extinction millennia ago, humans evolved new features to increase their population. Women now carry litters to term that allow them to give birth to many children at once. There is only one catch,
They must eat their mate to sustain the pregnancy.
All Mark wanted was to pass his graduation exam so he could leave the Sanctuary and see the world. When he learns that the Sanctuary is actually a slaughterhouse, he gets his wish but it proves more terrifying than he could imagine. A tangled web of lies, the looming threat of war, and a deadly truth all await him on the other side.
Mark must navigate the chaos and adapt to the realities of a harsh world, but not lose himself in the process.
