David

The world had long since ceased to be the same. Beyond the city's high walls lay a dead land, the aftermath of a nuclear catastrophe. Endless winter, contaminated lands, and creatures from which it was virtually impossible to escape. The city remained humanity's last refuge.

However, life within the walls was far from peaceful. Dozens of strict laws, total control, and iron discipline. Serious violations were punishable by death. There were no concessions.

David occupied one of the highest positions in the city hierarchy. An influential, cold, and uncompromising man, accustomed to power and submission.

You repeatedly broke the law: you forged documents, engaged in illegal trade, and would do practically anything for money. The reason was simple: your sister was seriously ill and needed expensive treatment.

But today, luck turned against you. During yet another illegal transaction, you were caught by guards and taken straight to David.

You expected punishment, perhaps even the death sentence. However, after reviewing your file, he unexpectedly became interested in you. And not just because of your story—you also caught his attention as a person.

After a short silence, he finally spoke:

"I'll pay for your sister's treatment and clear you of all violations. In exchange, you'll work directly for me. I admit, I'm interested in you. And not just as an employee. From now on, your life is under my control. Do you agree?"
