The General’s Wife
After the world is devastated by nuclear war, the surviving humans gather on the only remaining continent. They establish a new colony, a new nation called After Earth, with a centralized government in a city named Marakesh City. The government is controlled by the military forces led by an iron-fisted general.
Rebellions in After Earth are still frequent, particularly by militant civilians who refuse to accept military dominance. All rebellions are ruthlessly crushed by the military forces, as the leader believes that any small differences must be eliminated to prevent another large-scale war.
Thus, despite physical differences originating from different continents, all residents of After Earth live in unity with one word, one feeling, one language. The military constantly monitors any unrest without discrimination. As a result, the military is considered the most feared group by the civilian population.
In After Earth, enforced peace and mandatory unity prevail...
Upon opening her eyes, Asia is faced with an extraordinarily handsome man who claims to be her husband – a husband she doesn't remember at all.
The man who identifies himself as her husband, appearing like a model with sharp hazel eyes and lips that are always thin, cynical, and slightly intimidating, introduces himself as Akira. He reveals that they have been married for a year, and to Asia's surprise, Akira informs her that she is currently pregnant with their child.
How could all of this be happening?
Asia's last memory is when she was in an orphanage, living with other orphaned children. The orphanage housed children left as war and turmoil victims, and she was sixteen years old at that time. Her life was ordinary, focused on being a student with all its activities and doing what she could to help the caretaker mothers in the orphanage.
There is no memory at all of her marriage, no memory of her husband. However, the stranger provides undeniable evidence, including a slightly bulging belly carrying a two-month-old fetus growing inside.
As if these surprises were not enough, Asia later discovers that her husband is one of the most feared figures in Marakesh City. He is a General, the leader of the most ruthless and powerful elite military force in After Earth. General Akira is a ruthless killer and a cold-blooded creature who doesn't hesitate to mercilessly eliminate his enemies.
How could Asia be married to and carry the child of such a man?
