The Threads of Control

Arthea's life has been dictated by her father -- known as Pravex to the people -- and the face of the country's revered superhero coalition, The Zeroes, and her brother, his loyal right-hand man -- Frostion. Her father created the necklace that suppresses her telekinetic abilities-an invention born from the tragic death of her mother, a casualty of Arthea's uncontrolled powers. The necklace is a constant reminder of her father's grip on her, keeping her subdued and obedient to the life he's planned for her. But when Voltaris, the country's so-called villain, kidnaps her, everything she's been taught begins to unravel. Voltaris isn't the monster her family painted him to be. As their bond deepens, he challenges her to trust herself and question the lies she's been told her whole life. In Voltaris's world, she learns the truth about her powers-and her own identity-and must decide whether to remain in the shadows of her father's legacy or embrace the woman she could become. It's a battle not just for her freedom, but for her very soul-one that pits family loyalty against self-discovery, and the love she never expected against everything she's ever known.
