Neon Blood: Glitch Protocol

Kael wakes beneath a corporate kill squad with her body failing and a blade at her throat—held by Jaxon, the agent who was ordered to finish her. Then the forbidden Glitch protocol marks him as her only city key…and binds their pulses together. He needs her dead, but she needs his access to survive. Every upgrade gives Kael the power to fight back at the cost of a precious memory, while every second beside Jaxon makes their lethal bond harder to break—and the sealed truth more impossible to ignore: he was the one who pulled the trigger that scrapped her. Now Victor, the sadistic executive who created her, wants the Glitch to achieve digital immortality. If Kael breaks the bond, she loses her last chance at revenge; if she keeps it, she may forget her own name before she can decide whether to kill Jaxon—or trust the man who destroyed her.
