A Heart For Revenge

'Obey. Trust. Believe. That's what we were taught. And I did - right up until that blade came to my throat, by someone I trusted, I loved.'

Vex Asher was the faithful dog of the empire, a brutal solider who burned cities and buried innocents in mass graves-all in the name of the Emperor and Empress. He believed in their vision. In their lies. Until the blade at his throat came from someone he trusted.

But death wasn't the end.

Now, Vex wakes up sixteen again, with blood on his hands and years to go before his fall. The war hasn't started. The rebellion hasn't begun. The people he doomed... still have a chance.

This time, he's not following orders. Not for the crown. Not for anyone.

But rewriting history isn't easy-especially when the ghosts of his future haunt every decision. Enemies wear familiar faces. Allies hide in plain sight. And the one person he might care for? He remembers how they died.

The world thinks Vex Asher is a monster. Maybe they're right.
But monsters learn fast-and this time, he's choosing who to become.

Redemption is a war. And he's ready to bleed for it.
