Fear: Xane Volume 1

FEAR: Xane Volume 1 Narrated by Maria McCann

Face your fears... or let them control you.

River is just an ordinary high school freshman—until he meets Xane. She’s beautiful, mysterious, and way too perfect to be real. That’s because she isn’t.

Xane is a Synthetic Human, built to learn and experience human emotions firsthand. Her mission? Study fear—through River. But what begins as a secret experiment turns into something far more complicated as Xane starts to feel emotions she wasn’t programmed for... especially love.

As River struggles with self-doubt, anxiety, and overwhelming feelings for a girl who isn’t human, Xane begins to question the Analyst who created her and the emotional boundaries she’s supposed to obey. Together, they navigate the intensity of first love, the shadows of high school, and the terrifying fear of being exposed.

With every heartbeat, River and Xane must decide: Will fear define them—or can they rise above it?
