Irradiated Wolves
Zione knew the of the World Before.
The World Before had been chaotic and doomed to fail. It was the human's own fault - their greed and selfishness had corrupted their hearts and made sluggards of their minds.
That was why most of the world now was barren - irradiated so bad that most of the greenery and life on the planet had died.
She was alive thanks to Dr. Orange and a horde of researchers and scientists, at a single lab bored deep into the heart of the Smokey Mountains. All that was left of a top secret U.S. military experiment, the base's scientists had been lucky to be zealous about their work. Only they, and the permanent lab personnel assigned there 'round the clock, were at their work stations when the End came.
They continued their work, even years after.
Zione knew -she- was the work they had been so zealous for.
She, and numerous other hybrids created after the breakthrough, were capable in ways that their creators were not. They were stronger, faster, and immune to the degradation of harmful radioactive waves due to the nature of the genes they were spliced with.
Wolves.
They could run for days, and never tire.
Hunt down prey for miles.
And take down the most ferocious beasts of the Wastes.
...At least in theory.
So when Zione and her pack are sent out to cross to the western ocean and back for reports on how the land is faring in the wake of ultimate destruction, she doesn't hestitate for a chance to unleash like she was built for.
She is a genetically engineered lycan queen, sum of all experiments before her. Capable of a monstrous form just as big and bad as any nightmare that comes her way, she is the single strongest wolf in the cluster of experiments bred there.
Of course, she has a number of suitors. Her pack works just as any pack of wolves does, lead by an alpha pair who takes care of the rest. But when Zione realizes that the voice in her head is the ancient diety of the real werewolves that lived hidden amoung humans in the World Before, telling her her fated mated is elsewhere, she doesn't know what she inadvertently is getting herself into.
After the scientist release the werewolves with dire warnings of what will happen if they fail, she'll lead her pack through badlands, an underground railway, treacherous secrets, surprise tribal combatants and a devious new strain of psychopaths, plus more, as she learns in this new no-holds-barred, utter insanity of a nuclear apocalypse what it means to be the savior of all mankind ~ and if that is worth giving up everything she has found her own heart longing for.
