Child of Earth

Kira Alberona, the CEO of Alberona inc. which is the largest corporate giant, is a shut in. She rarely is seen outside of her private residence for anything besides meetings. Some of which are even done over the phone. Her enemies vanish or are eliminated through "accidents" just like the ones that left her as the last living heir to the empire. No one knows how she spends her time. Well, except for The Curtain of the Stars, who knows her as VII, the emotionless magic wielding assassin who is more wraith than human. Only the Zodiac know her true face, but not her malicious intentions.

Erick Aragon no longer exists. One moment, he was revealing in his normal life. The next, he witnessed the unthinkable: a murder in cold blood, ordered by those who envy a gift that was given to an unknowing receiver. When they caused the crash, Erick disappeared. He made a split-second decision to shed his identity and flee his life of ignorance, leaving the drunken parties and sultry nightlife of his teenage life far behind. He doesn't know how to explain to himself what he saw. All he knows now is that nothing he believed about his family, his heart, or his sense of normalcy, was real. He can change his name and deny his past, but Erick can't run from the truth.

The lines between right and wrong, and trust and betrayal, will be blurred beyond recognition as he untangles the deceptions of his mentor and the plan she has set in motion-one years in the making. Erick races to find his own truth, which might just be something he doesn't want to know. One choice changed his life, so another one might doom everything he knows to ruin.
