To Love A River

In a dystopian future where Vampires emerged from the shadows in order to stop humanity from becoming extinct, a young woman with a dark past meets a charismatic stranger. As time goes by Private Love Aikawa of military unit 4-7, finds that she may not be as human as she first thought, and that humanity may not be the side that she should be fighting for. Battling rogue vampires, mutated creatures and her own past, Love works to unravel the mysteries behind the secretive Helsing unit. This novel starts intentionally slow through the exposition, everything kicks into gear in the latter half of Volume 1, so I hope you stick with it and enjoy the WILD ride! I also added some song recommendations along the way to listen to whilst you read certain chapters, I hope this helps boost the experience. Public Spotify playlist for Volume 1 is under the name: TLAR - Book 1 https://open.spotify.com/playlist/07czy216X1xB6F1mfRtl31?si=3cff937234e64589 Please comment and vote for your favourite characters along the way :)

Chapter 46. Bonding

Stepping outside into the cold air, Love took a deep breath through her ventilation mask. 

She understood from an early age that she was unable to process emotions like other people. 

Social interactions had been a struggle from the moment she relearned how to speak. When she was mute, it was as though she were invisible to those around her. Nobody wanted to get too close to damaged goods, as though mutism were infectious. 

But as soon as she spoke again, there were expectations. 

Expectations to be normal. To understand how to respond to other's voices, actions and emotions appropriately.

But Love felt as though she would never truly understand. 

Suddenly a strange scuffling noise caught her attention and her head snapped to the left, where a strange creature began to crawl from a small alcove in the rubble. 

Love swiftly unsheathed her katana and stepped back calmly, pointing her blade towards it.
