{ON HOLD FOR DEEP EDITING}
Koen and Thane were once inseparable twins, bound by the riches and pressures of royalty. But at the age of twelve, Thane vanished without a trace, leaving Koen to shoulder the burden of royal responsibility and relentless grief. Now a promising heir to the throne, Kane has devoted his life to ruling his kingdom- and finding his lost brother, no matter the cost.

Meanwhile, Thane has forsaken his royal status for a life of freedom on the high seas. As captain of the infamous Crimson Scythe crew, he is closer than ever to completing their greatest heist yet: raiding the very kingdom he once called home in a final act of justice.

But when the brothers mysteriously switch lives with one another, everything changes. Each brother must keep their cover and conform to the other's reality, uncovering secrets, struggles, and truths about everything they thought they knew of themselves and each other.

As Koen scrambles to sabotage the heist from within Thane's ruthless crew, Thane navigates the expectations of a life he was once destined for while debating whether his revenge is worth the cost.

In a race against time, the twins must face their fractured relationship and choose whether to rekindle what once was- or let the tides of their separate lives pull them apart forever.

Once upon a time, there was a young boy who experienced constant pain. The only person who truly stayed by his side was Kallie, his sister. She was his everything. His life, his family, his best friend...his world. Then humanity had to take her away and wreck his perfect, peaceful life. As if it was not enough humans were the source of all his pain and suffering he experienced throughout his life, and the reason for all his scars and symbols, they took away the only person he cared about. Well, enough was enough. He tried leaving humanity alone. He tried living a peaceful life away from all the fighting. It was all he wanted; to live a peaceful life with his sister, but humanity would not allow him that. So, if battling was the only thing humans throughout history understood, then he would bring them a war. So now, he has a new goal. Peace treaties are made between humans but they never last. War, however, forces the loser to obey no matter what for however long the winner decides. If humanity-the entire world-only submitted to the strongest then he would dominate them all. Only he would be the strongest, allowing no other person to even come close to his power. He would burn the world down to its very foundation, eradicating everyone who stands in his way, and rebuild it anew. The new world would be transformed into what he could never have. A fair and just world, devoid of all sins, where everyone can live a peaceful life without the constant worry of what could hurt them next. New laws will be placed while the old ones are removed. All evil will be purged from the world. Any who stand in his way will be turned to ash to help build his world. If the world wanted him to be evil so badly...then he would be a malicious tyrant that rules not with an iron fist, but a diamond one. Of course, there will be many who will fight back. However, there is only one person who even has a chance at winning...and she only cares about her little sunshine.
