    Summary

    Connor is suddenly very aware that there is no one else outside at the moment. Just the two of them, surrounded by a sea of empty cars. He thinks of the first time Reed touched him in this very parking lot, clicking Connor’s pump regulator out of his chest with ease. A deluge of coolant floods his components.

    “So, you wanna go out sometime?” Reed finally says.

    Summary

    Emancipation hasn't made life any less dangerous for androids living in Detroit. Android taskforce duo Connor and Lieutenant Hank Anderson know that all too well, solving hate crimes and bringing justice to society’s most targeted demographic. When Connor investigates a series of missing android cases that are seemingly linked, he himself is pulled under into a dangerous black market of servitude, where resistance is not an option and androids must cater to the carnal fantasies of the highest human bidder. Hank would risk everything to rescue his partner, going undercover and recruiting unlikely allies—but freedom is as much in the mind, and saving Connor might not be possible if he won’t save himself. Can they crack open a sinister underworld syndicate together, or will it break them past the point of no return?

    Part 1 of Undertow, a multipart slow-burn romance novel with dark themes exploring desire, taboo, and what it means to be human.

    Summary

    Connor reached inside his vest and pulled out a coin, rolling it across his knuckles briefly before he held the dollar sized coin out to the pastor, who took it with a furrowed brow. “I see…” Markus hummed, expression souring slightly, “we’ve had no incidents here,” he uttered, glancing at the door of the chapel to ensure nobody had entered, “I take it this means you’re hunting someone..."

    Connor is a monster hunter in the old west, his latest hunt brings him to the small town of Jericho, where he also allows himself to get distracted by a certain local.

    Summary

    Of course Connor couldn’t just put the poor bastard out of his misery. Something about there being no difference between this Connor and the real Connor before he deviated and it being hypocritical to rescue thousands of androids only to write off this one.

    So, as Hank deposited the twitching, rasping body into the back of his car, he reminded himself that he was only doing this for Connor. Yet it was hard to ignore the garbled attempts at speech that resembled his name.

    RK800-60 survives the headshot but is severely debilitated and all he remembers is Hank.

    Summary

    Hank seeks oblivion after a rough case brings up a lot of memories. Connor interferes, and offers a mutually beneficial arrangement. 

    "I told you already, remember? I'll be whatever you want me to be. Your partner, your buddy to drink with, or..."

    "My fuckbuddy," Hank said, interrupting him.

    Something in Connor's face shuttered. Hank had the briefest of moments to wonder if maybe — and then Connor nodded. "Yes," he said. "Your fuckbuddy."

    Summary

    “Maybe I was never meant for more than this, Hank.” Connor sighed, staring down into the tumultuous water under the bridge. He watched as the few fish swam away from him, and a part of him wished he could join them. “Maybe not,” Hank muttered, now standing right next to the android, his hand reaching out to hold Connor’s, “but everything about you is more than enough to me”.

     

    After the revolution, androids were supposed to be free. As time passes and the discrimination against his kind doesn’t dissipate, Connor is starting to fear that freedom may remain a mystery for him. Now that he finally has his first official case at the DPD, he is determined to find the culprit responsible, even if his partner Hank Anderson is the only person that will help him do so.

    Summary

    Mr. Anderson’s been under for nearly three days when he utters his first waking word.

    It’s a miracle Connor was in the room to even hear it, really. He’s just finished hanging a new bag of fluids and checking the IV pump when he hears the unmistakable wheeze and cotton-dry smack of a human who has woken up a few hours after having their intubation tube removed. 

    Mr. Anderson coughs roughly and shifts in bed, still sluggish as the last of the sedation wears off through the ongoing haze of morphine. He opens his pale eyes, looks directly at Connor still sitting on a rolling stool at the bedside, and rasps one hoarse word, firm and resolute: “Fuck.”

    Summary

    Connor’s resolve cracks along with his voice, “But what if you don’t come back? What if you don’t make it?”

    It’s harder than usual to find his cocky self-assurance, but he manages for Connor, “You know I’m too stubborn to die at sea without kissing you one last time.”

    “Don’t kiss me then,” Connor mutters, staring at his feet. “Come back to me.”

    Summary

    ———

    Even after half a year Detroit is still full of anti-android bigotry, and Connor, being one of the main players in the revolution, continuously finds himself in the thick of it.

    Usually it would be fine, he could defend himself and report it to the DPD’s android division the next day, not a scratch on him.

    But one day he’s attacked and his programming betrays him, leaving him running for his life, and as if a switch had been flipped within his circuits, a second phase of deviancy left him more vulnerable than ever.

    Thankfully though, Hank has offered to begin escorting Connor around on his daily errands, so he doesn’t have to deal with these newfound emotions on his own.

    ...Now, if only he’d fucking talk about them.

    ———

    “Whoa-oh, humanity
    Won't know what hit it, baby
    When they get to see you and me
    So don't blow your circuitry
    Let 'em stare as we walk
    Let 'em talk, it's all the same to me”

    Summary

    “As an advanced prototype, I’m afforded a number of privileges the average android is not. I’m acting under the authority of Lieutenant Anderson. Whether you release me or not, the police will find this place and you will be taken into custody,” Connor says, still writhing beneath Luther’s boot. His preconstruction software offers up multiple ways to temporarily incapacitate the android if he could find some kind of makeshift weapon.

    “Oh. So they don’t know where we are yet, though?” Zlatko says with interest. “Which means they’d have to follow your tracker. I could remove it the old fashioned way, but you know what else can be done to disable a tracker? Turn an android deviant.”

    Summary

    Connor doesn’t want to be left alone with himself. The place he wants to be is crowded on one side by a force that‘s trying to push him out, and another that wouldn’t notice if he were actually gone.

    He honestly believes those are just the facts, and that’s exactly why he’s his own worst enemy.

    Summary

    Humanity is never really about the human race; it’s benevolence, compassion, heart-- but being human is a different matter. Being human is not easy. Diseases, hunger, thirst, addiction, mental disabilities and death, that’s what makes someone human. In 2038 Detroit, after the success of the peaceful android revolution, there are countless cases of androids suddenly going insane and becoming addicted to drugs. Not only that, but several other cases of androids starving, self-destructing in bizarre ways, raping humans and other androids, and being diagnosed with mental disabilities like BPD and schizophrenia. The epidemic is quickly spreading.

    Not only is this the most challenging case that Hank and Connor will ever face, but it’s also the most dangerous one: continually putting Connor’s life on the line as he fights off the contagion and the addiction the further they delve into the investigation.

    Suddenly, becoming human is the biggest threat to humanity.
