    Summary

    “I thought you didn’t remember me,” she blurts out because of course she does. Because she can’t help herself around him.

    “Would you rather have explained to Dr. Balhara where we knew each other from?”

    Summary

    Frank cringed as Abby’s name left his mouth. “I'm- I’m sorry, Mel. I didn’t mean to bring her up”.

    “You can talk about your wife. It’s fine. Besides, you’re married, and we’re just friends... right?” she said sarcastically, burning a hole in her throat as she stared at the ground beneath them.

    Summary

    Grounder Frank Langdon takes a wife.

    Or,

    One hundred years ago on the eve of nuclear armageddon, the wealthy elites escaped to bunkers and abandoned everyone else to die. Unsurprisingly, those descendants still hold a grudge. But the bunkers are finally running out of resources, and they need to strike a deal with the surviving “grounders” to replenish their dwindling stockpiles.

    When the leader of the most fearsome tribe, Frank Langdon, suggests a trade, the high council leaps at the opportunity. The colony will provide him with a wife. He’ll give a lavish dowry of foodstuffs and supplies.

    Mel is the unlucky girl caught in the crossfire. What starts as simmering chemistry turns into wildfire, a risk-it-all kind of love. But her mission is clear: save her people... at any cost.

    Loosely inspired by the television series “the 100” and bellarke

    Summary

    Mel's mouth casually forms words that Langdon assumes are a joke that he did not quite understand, but what he does understand is that he is now losing his mind.

    Summary

    Mel King was a creature of habit.

    There was a specific sort of choreography to her life beyond the chaos of the Emergency Department. A carefully controlled routine, a color-coded calendar, a rigid set of rituals that kept her grounded enough to keep showing up day after day, to keep on doing the work that was required of her to save lives.

    Everything was going fine for Mel. Her personal life was predictable, unexciting, and perfectly fulfilling, thank you very much.

    Enter Frank Langdon, agent of chaos.
