Synopsis

I put my hands on my face, still lying on my bed. My last night hadn't been one of the best. My 16th birthday was coming up and my parents were waiting for me for a chat. I already knew exactly what we were going to talk about: my marriage. I didn't feel ready, but according to them, I was at the perfect age. My family and I were in crisis, the coffee acquired a blight and production was very low. My father had to sell some land, but unfortunately our money was still insufficient, because in addition to food, we had to pay the servants - slavery had been abolished exactly two years ago -, and still try to invest in business. My parents believed that if I married the Count's son, we would be safe, given that the Count owned a sugar cane mill, which was exported to Europe, in addition to his land properties, of course. There was only one problem. I had never seen the Count's son.

Survival Game: The Nightmare

Second fic of the Survival Game trilogy. After winning the 64th edition of the Survival Game, Heinrich and Anne gained fame, fortune and social inclusion, as well as fans all over Germany. Although the couple of winners of the reality live peacefully, a series of intrigues have become part of each one's lives, in addition to secrets and lies that can harm not only them, but also their family and friends.

Survival Game: The Beginning

"I can hear your voice somewhere in my mind. Edith, my best friend. Moe, my best friend. My parents: my mother crying for fear of losing me; my insecure father, giving me strength . And my friends from reality TV. And Anne." In the near future, Germany returns to the Nazi regime, preaching the superiority of the Aryan race over the inferiors and, above all, anti-Semitism. Jews, the race that suffers the most repression from the government, are forced to participate in a reality show, broadcast live across Germany, in which they are confined in a jungle, with the goal of only two survivors of opposite sexes getting out alive. If you win, fame and fortune for sure. If you lose, you die. And Heinrich will feel it in his skin to kill or to save the girl he loves.
