Books: The First Time Too Late: A Short Story
An unexpected date turns into a waking nightmare when AJ, wounded and gasping for breath, clings to Daniel as a monstrous horde swarms around them. The once-secure Mercer III Lab is failing, its protective shields flickering, the last barrier between them and certain doom.
Every second drags them closer to the unthinkable—escape is slipping away, and the horrors outside are closing in. With no clear way out and time running out, AJ and Daniel must make an impossible choice: fight, flee, or sacrifice everything. But as the walls weaken and their bond is pushed to the brink, one terrifying truth becomes clear—some nightmares don’t end when you wake up.
