Deviation,
book 2 in the Clone Chronicles
Protect.
Obey. Sacrifice.
These
words are the mantra of my existence. I’m not sure if it’s Titus
Rogen inspiring my desire to go against what I am or my own DNA
deviating. All I can think is how Titus will look when he meets his
end. It trumps even my wish for freedom. In this moment, I want
nothing more than to watch the life bleed from Titus’s body. And I
want it at my own hands.
Titus.
The Creator.
I
stare at my palms. Strength aside, I wonder if I’m capable of
taking a life. A human life; one with a soul. And I wonder if that
isn’t easier than taking the life of an Imitation. At least humans
have souls that live on. What do I have after this? Where will I go?
Back into a syringe? Will Titus recycle me? Or will I be lost forever
down a lab drain?
We
don’t deserve that.
We
don’t deserve him.
Deserving
and receiving are so very different here. And I am beginning to
understand, to beat someone in this world, I‘ll have to play in it.
