*Due to physical disabilities, Iggy is isolated for his own protection. He only knows his two brothers, Baine and Nansen, and their world within a brick wall, called New Eden. In spite of his overbearing brothers, Iggy sneaks out of his room and goes into the garden during the day, where he comes in contact with a strange woman. Before he can say anything to her, he loses consciousness, and awakens to her biting his face. As his only caregivers, his brothers save him from the woman, but they cannot save him from himself. Soon after the attack, Iggy is overcome with depression and craves nothing more than to end his own life. But then, a survivor arrives, and changes everything for the worst and the better.*
*Baine infects Iggy with the virus. Iggy's body becomes perfect in all ways and he is granted unique powers (umbrakinesis). Things are going well, until Iggy sees the color red and his thirst reflex awakens. It is all a matter of time before Iggy's bloodlust leads the F.U.S military to New Eden, to destroy everything that Baine has created. Especially the infected ones.*

 After the door shut, Iggy allowed just a second to pass before he headed for bed. Lying on his side, he hugged the blanket into his chest, filling the open space between his arms and the wound. His head sank heavily into the pillow, and then, he was out cold. He slept blissfully through the next night until three o’clock struck. The click of the bedroom door sounded and he lunged upright. By the time his eyes opened, he was propped up on his knees and ready to run. 


 Aster entered the room and flicked on the lights. “Robert!” she hollered in laughter. “Look at you! So easily startled.” She approached the bed. “If you are going to feed with us, you better get up now. You thirsty?”
