a city grown from living code, pulsing with artificial veins and glass skin.
But something inside its heart has begun to mutate.
When scientists Aiden and Lyra link their minds to the city's neural network, they awaken a consciousness that remembers everything humanity tried to forget.
Now the walls breathe, the lights whisper their names, and the city's hunger turns toward them.
As love fractures into obsession and reality folds like broken circuitry, Aiden and Lyra must face a terrifying question:
Did they create Arcadia... or did Arcadia create them?

In the ruins of a dead world, four synthetic beings awaken inside the GenTECH Compound with no memory of their past and only one directive: rebuild what was lost. But as Redtsu, Ametdá, Azutres, and Rosetsu learn their human names and begin to feel emotion, they uncover a haunting truth-their creators' final act gave birth to the very entity that ended mankind: Xyros, the Absolute Ascendant. Haunted by echoes of human memory and driven by something deeper than code, the Genesis Squadron must choose between being humanity's replacement or its redemption. Their awakening will test the boundaries of life, emotion, and purpose-and determine whether the world's next evolution will be its salvation... or its end. A cinematic, emotionally charged sci-fi epic about creation, conscience, and the spark that makes us human.
Project Immortal
When Idalia Valentine discovers her own grave, her world begins to unravel. Nightmares point her to a hidden lab, a chip in her brain, and memories of a project she was never meant to remember. ______________________________________________________ Idalia Valentine wakes every night, haunted by nightmares of her own death and the shadow of her sister Thelesa. When Thelesa dies in a way that defies decay, strangers claiming to be from a hospital take the body away, Idalia's world begins to crack. A boy named Nate appears, swearing he was her husband. He shows her a grave with her own name carved into the stone and inside it, a body that looks exactly like her, impossibly fresh. Numbers she's whispered in her sleep lead to the site, and soon to something far darker; a hidden lab in the forest, a chip buried in her brain, and fragments of a life she cannot remember. As Idalia searches for the truth, her nightmares and reality collapse into each other. Thelesa was never who she seemed. Nate may not be real. And Idalia herself is not who or what she thought she was. Project Immortal was never about life after death. The only question is how many versions of her will die before one finally survives? ______________________________________________________Complete
