VILLAINS ANONYMOUS

The world calls him Ruin.

The man who murdered Earth's greatest hero.

To the public, Eric is a monster born from chaos a living weapon who grows stronger from fear, grief, and violence. Entire cities panic at the sound of his name. Heroes hunt him. Governments want him erased.

But Nova knows monsters.

She runs an underground therapy group for failed villains, unstable superhumans, and people society threw away long ago. Sharp-tongued, reckless, and quietly self-destructive, she's spent years believing nobody truly changes.

Then Eric walks into her group.

Quiet. Dangerous. Wearing black gloves like he's terrified of touching the world.

The more Nova digs into the truth behind the hero Eric killed, the more she realizes the city's beloved saviors may be far worse than the villains they created.

And the closer she gets to Eric, the more terrifying their connection becomes.

Because when he touches her, he doesn't just feel emotions.

He feels everything.

Her rage.
Her loneliness.
Her darkest thoughts.

Now the world's most feared man is becoming obsessed with the one person who can silence the chaos inside his head.

But if Eric loses control, he could destroy the city.

And if Nova falls for him completely...

he might burn the world trying to save her.
