In a world where power is dictated by the color of your eyes, survival means knowing your place in the system.
Jun Iñigo Halvane is an ordinary man-until everything he knows about himself shatters. Time bends, memory distorts, and his existence is thrust into chaos. He's no longer just a worker in a corporate factory; he's something far more dangerous-and he doesn't even know it.
Elara Veyne, codename Vigil-9, is Everreach Solutions' enforcer. She's the corporate blade, cutting down anyone who threatens the delicate order she's sworn to uphold. When an unregistered powered individual-an aberrant-slips through the cracks, Elara doesn't hesitate. It's not personal. It's survival. The system she's bound to can't afford a single crack.
As Jun's reality unravels, Elara is sent to silence him before the chaos he's unleashed can destroy everything. But in the end, the greatest threat may not be the aberrants. It's the dark truth about what they've all become-and the ruthless machine keeping them in line.

Ruthless, sharp-eyed, and powerful, he ruled the underground with a fist of iron. His name alone made men tremble and women disappear behind closed doors. But to the outside world? Kade was nothing more than a shadow, lurking just behind the veil of ordinary life. Kade had his own rules, his own empire. He didn't care about the outside world of kindness and naivety.

In this new, unrelenting conflict, there won't be any winners, only more devastation.
Shadowbound Hearts
Elara Vance (22) exchanged one prison for another. After years of quiet endurance, the desperate night she fought back and killed her abusive father landed her in Blackwell Penitentiary. Out of place, fragile, and marked by trauma, she craves the anonymity of the stone walls-but anonymity is a luxury Blackwell doesn't afford. The man who truly runs this world of steel and concrete is Asher 'Reyes' Thorne (27). He's an incarcerated crime lord, a kingpin serving multiple life sentences for calculated murders, whose influence flows like a cold current through every cell block. When Asher sees Elara-the quiet, defiant woman with fire in her eyes, jailed for justifiable violence-he doesn't see a victim; he sees a kindred spirit he intends to own. Their relationship begins as a terrifying contract: Asher offers her absolute protection from the brutality of the guards and the cruelty of the inmates. In return, she owes him only her attention. But in the confined, suffocating space of Blackwell, proximity is poison. Their tense, transactional meetings-whispered words across the common room, charged silence in the visiting booths-quickly ignite into a desperate, forbidden need. Elara begins to chip away at the monster, discovering the strategic intelligence and fierce loyalty beneath the calculated darkness. Asher, in turn, finds his iron control shattered by the fragile defiance of the one person he can't truly cage. Shadowbound Hearts is the story of two souls defined by violence, finding dangerous comfort in the one place they are most exposed. In a place where freedom is impossible, they must decide if their forbidden love is the ultimate act of rebellion, or the final, irreversible surrender to the shadows.
