The Declaration by Gemma Malley

In a future where a longevity drug grants near-immortality, society enforces a pact that forbids having children, branding illegal offspring as “Surpluses” and raising them in harsh institutions. A dutiful girl conditioned to repent for her existence begins to question everything when a new boy arrives claiming to know her parents, drawing her into a dangerous plan to escape. Their journey exposes the moral cost of eternal life, the cruelty of rigid population control, and the transformative power of choice and identity.
