Good story but incomplete. The story abruptly ends on a cliffhanger after the 64th chapter (designated as Chapter 30, some chapters are subdivided into multiple parts). An author’s note at the end says that there’s a sequel coming but that appears to be at least 8 months old.

Chapter 1.1

One thousand thirty-three, one thousand thirty-four, one thousand thirty – The conversation outside of her sterile room interrupted Nyla’s counting.If they don’t want to be overheard, they should speak softer.She paused and listened to the voices. Even without her heightened hearing she would have been able to understand their heated debate.“She’s still too ill to be taken away, General,” a woman pleaded. Nyla recognized the strained voice as Dr. Bunder, the physician who had been attending to her.“Have her wounds healed?” a man asked. His gruff, low voice held its own authority, which led Nyla to believe that the man was a high ranking official of some kind. He had to be with that kind of self-assurance.Nyla lifted her heavily bandaged hands to her face. The hospital had continued to wrap them even after the skin stitched back together had healed. She thought it was unn

“That has changed as well. You will be joining the civilians at Alet Academy. All Menhits are being integrated into the general population after they’ve been decommissioned.”            “Are we all being decommissioned, Sir?” Nyla had only met one other Menhit before, but she knew of at least half a dozen.            “All juvenile Menhits, yes. The adults’ fates are still being determined.”            They were interrupted by a knock on the door. A nurse poked her head in and announced, “General, the family is here to pick her up.” Stepping inside, she placed a folded pile of clothes on the chair next to Nyla’s bed before hurrying out.            “Good, good.

One never knew when they would have to make a quick escape. While getting out of the hovercar at the house, Nyla couldn’t believe the size of it. She knew that civilians didn’t live in tent barracks, but she had never been to one of the grand estates.            Edmond is Governor, Nyla reminded herself. And the Governor was just another word for President here.            “There’s plenty of space for you, don’t you worry,” Veronica said, starting up the wide white stone steps that led to the front door. “Come, come,” she gestured Nyla forward.            Hesitantly, Nyla placed her foot on the first stone step. She half expected to leave a dirty shadow of her shoe on the creamy surface. Accustomed to the trials of war, she was comf

Someone using her name downstairs roused Nyla from her nap. Even with her ring on, Nyla could clearly hear the discussion in the family room.“Mason, go get Nyla for dinner,” Edmond barked at his daughter. There was no rustle of movement. “Now,” he hissed, his tone frigid with displeasure.“Why do I have to?” Mason whined.Edmond sighed. “Because I told you to. Until you are eighteen, you will do as I say.”Mason snorted in disgust. “You’re so old fashioned, Dad. It’s not like that anymore in the real world. Imagine what the voters would think if they knew that you run your house like a prison.”“Mason,” Veronica warned. “Do what your father says.”“Why? I don’t want to be around It.”“For the last time,” Edmond growled. “Nyla is not an ‘it’, even if she’s a Menhit.”“

“My problem,” Edmond boomed, “is that you are treating our guest like scum on the bottom of your shoe! An inanimate object you can abuse as you will!”Mason laughed. “You’re kidding me, right? She might as well be an inanimate object, Dad. I mean, look at her. Her face hasn’t changed once, not even when the soup hit her. She’s just a breathing doll. And you saw how she caught that bowl, she moved so fast that you couldn’t even see her hands! She’s a freak.”Nyla unconsciously reached up to her face and felt her mouth. It was relaxed, different from the tightly pressed lips all around her. She knew that her face was different – it was part of being a Menhit. Emotions were a foreign concept she didn’t understand and couldn’t display. “It’s okay,” Nyla cut in. “I know I’m different. Mason is just pointing out the obvious.”The room froze, and Nyla

“Well, don’t you look nice!” Veronica squealed, fluttering around Nyla. The pair stood before the new smart mirror hanging over Nyla’s closet door, inspecting her appearance.After dinner the night before, Veronica had brought bag after bag of clothing into Nyla’s room. As she unpacked each item, she explained why she had picked it out for Nyla. Most of the reasons had to do with Nyla’s blonde hair, which was so different than Veronica’s curtain of ebony.She had arrived at Nyla’s door at six that morning insisting that Nyla needed help getting ready. When called upon to pick her outfit for the day, Nyla settled on a plain long sleeve top in a color Veronica called ‘sea-green’ and a pair of jeans. It would hide the lingering burns on her arm from the night before. “So simple, yet they look so stylish on you because of your tall frame! I’m so happy they fit!” Veronica admired loudly. “I

“So recently! And you’re already in school! Come, sit by me and tell me all about your adventures, like how you got to live with the Brauns.”Before Nyla could reply, Eason reached behind him and grabbed her gloved hand to keep her from moving. Sarah noticed the gesture, and her eyebrows rose. “No,” he said icily, “Nyla is sitting next to me.” Without saying goodbye, Eason dragged Nyla over to two empty desks in the corner, and motioned for her to sit down. The boy sitting in front of Eason smiled and waved before turning back to the worksheet he was hastily finishing on his holopad.“Is there a problem with Sarah?” Nyla asked, eyeing Eason critically. The interaction with the girl didn’t make sense. She hadn’t asked anything inappropriate, as far as Nyla was aware.Eason sighed. “Just stay away from Sarah. She’s not someone you want to get involved with.”“Okay,&rdq

The next day followed the same pattern as the day before, except for the bathroom incident. After emerging from a stall, Nyla found her path blocked by Sarah. Her hawk nose was scrunched like she smelt something terrible.“Nyla,” Sarah purred. She gave Nyla a once over, and stopped on the gloves she wore. “What are the odds of us seeing each other here?”“Statistically likely, actually,” Nyla automatically responded.Sarah blinked twice, seemingly lost for words.Nyla stepped around the girl and headed for the sink.“You’re the only girl I’ve ever seen Eason be around. He doesn’t even spend time with his sister.” Sarah said while following her.“He’s my host family,” Nyla responded.Sarah stared at Nyla in the mirror. “That’s not it. I don’t know what’s going on, but I’m going to find out. There’s something… d

Breanne chewed thoughtfully. “I can’t do anything that would upset anyone here because my future and my family’s future depends on it. If I make someone mad, their family can wipe mine from existence.”Nyla thought about all of the powerful students here. She had the Governor’s protection, but Breanne had no one.“And it doesn’t help that I’m painfully shy,” Breanne added while putting down her sandwich.Nyla squinted at Breanne, sizing her up. “You don’t seem shy to me.” Unless Nyla didn’t actually know what shy meant.Shaking her head, Breanne explained, “Not with you, Nyla. I knew when I first saw you that we were the same: outcasts.”“How?” Nyla asked. Was there something about her that made her stand out?Breanne blushed to the roots of her out of control hair. “I don’t know. It’s just, well, we both look different. We

Chapter 5.1

The first weekend posed a dilemma for Nyla. She didn’t know what to do with herself. All the Brauns seemed to be busy with one thing or another, and Nyla wanted to stay out of their way. The best she could do was keep to herself in her room. At a loss as to how to occupy the endless hours, she spent all of Saturday lying on her bedroom floor, gazing up at the ceiling. Her head felt hollow, the same way her chest did – as if someone had taken a dull spoon and scraped out all her insides.That first night in the house, she had quickly realized the bed was too soft, too foreign to lay on comfortably. The cots she had slept on all her life were hard, the thin mattresses doing little to cushion the metal bars that ran through their centers. After tossing and turning for several hours, she had grabbed the flattest pillow and lightest blanket and laid out on the floor. The plush carpet cushioned her just enough to keep her hips from aching. Once comfortable, she had fall
