My life was a lie. I was a corporate drone, a cog in the machine, living a life of quiet desperation. Then my "father" died, leaving me a single key and a final, cryptic message: "The truth is in the blood." That truth shattered my world. I am not a nobody. I am the last heir to the Obsidian Throne, a secret lineage that has secretly controlled the world's shadows for millennia, wielding a power my family called the "Dominion." But the throne is cursed and the legacy is a bloody one. My inheritance was stolen, my family was murdered, and the architect of my ruin is the man my parents trusted most. Now, I'm a ghost in a world of high-stakes conspiracy. I have the key—an ancient artifact that binds to my soul, granting me a fragment of my family's power—and a burning need for vengeance. To claim what is mine, I must tear down the secret empire built on my family's bones. I will fight, manipulate, and kill my way through the criminal underworld and the glittering halls of the ultra-rich. They think they killed the last of my bloodline. They are about to learn that you cannot kill a king. The reckoning is coming, and it will be paid in blood.

The bullet tore through a man's throat, and Dante Cross didn't even blink. Dante is the finest cleaner the Agency has ever created—a ghost who erases bodies, witnesses, and entire operations without leaving a trace. Loyal to the system that shaped him, he believes one last mission will earn his freedom. He's wrong. The Agency never lets its weapons walk away. When a routine dead drop ends with two trusted contacts slaughtered inside a safehouse only he knew about, Dante realizes someone is erasing his trail while he's still alive. The betrayal isn't from an enemy but from someone who knows his real name, his retirement plan, and the location of the only person he still cares about. The truth is devastating: the order came from inside, and his own handler has marked him for death. As Dante digs deeper, he discovers his final assignment is far bigger than a cartel cleanup. It's the transfer of seven high-value prisoners who hold secrets capable of exposing a shadow network spanning three continents. If the prisoners disappear, the truth dies with them. If the operation fails, the organization vanishes into the shadows forever. Dante is the only man who knows both the transfer route and how the network truly operates. Then comes the final revelation. His handler hasn't just betrayed him—he has been manipulating him for years. Every mission, every kill, every "clean" operation was never about justice but about testing and perfecting a living weapon. Dante was never the Agency's cleaner. He was its experiment. Now hunted by the organization that created him, Dante must uncover the truth, protect the last person he loves, and survive long enough to destroy the system before it erases him forever. The countdown has already begun.

Cain Mercer was the CIA's deadliest black-ops asset. He could enter any room, eliminate any target, and vanish without a trace. They called him a ghost—not because he was invisible, but because he left no evidence behind. Then the Siberia mission changed everything. An explosion at a classified research facility should have killed him. Instead, it unlocked something inside Cain's mind. Now he sees them: the Strays—flickering, predatory remnants of the dead that drift through our world like interference on a dying radio. They're invisible to everyone else. And they're hunting. The Agency branded him insane, locked him away in a deep-cover psychiatric facility. But when impossible assassinations begin targeting high-value global assets—each victim found with the same static-burn scar Cain carries on his chest—they have no choice but to unearth their broken weapon. Cain is offered a deal: track the killer, stop the attacks, and earn his freedom. But the deeper he digs, the darker the truth becomes. The Strays aren't random. They're being directed by someone inside the Agency itself—a ghost from Cain's past who knows exactly what he's become. To survive, Cain must embrace the very thing that terrifies him most: he's not just a ghost operative. He's the only one who can fight ghosts. And the war has only just begun.

The heavens wept the day the Dragon's Spine Mountains bled fire. The Oda Clan once stood as the greatest military house in the Imperial Dominion of Yamato, where cultivation and warfare forged legends. In a single moonless night, the Shogunate branded them traitors and wiped out forty-seven thousand lives. Only one survivor remained. At twelve, Kaito Oda watched his father die beneath the executioner's blade. Five years later, he lives under a false name in the lawless Crimson Port, carrying nothing but his father's sword, a shattered cultivation core, and a terrifying gift—the ability to see the death of any technique used against him. To avenge his clan, Kaito infiltrates the Imperial Academy, the very institution that trained the generals who slaughtered his family. There, he begins mastering the forbidden Sword Emperor's Testament, a cultivation art fueled by bloodshed alone. Every victory brings him closer to the truth behind the massacre—and closer to the empire's destruction. But revenge is never simple. The brilliant strategist who orchestrated the Oda Clan's fall now commands the Eastern Armies. His only surviving childhood friend serves the regime he swore to destroy. And beneath the imperial capital, an ancient force awakens, threatening to consume every clan locked in their endless struggle for power. Empires rise. Dynasties fall. Legends are written in blood. Kaito Oda isn't fighting for a throne. He's fighting to erase an empire. Welcome to the Dominion—where trust is weakness, mercy is fatal, and the Steel Lotus blooms only in the ashes of war.

Kaelen Voss is the best Auctioneer in the business—a rogue who hunts forgotten gods in the shadows of the world, capturing fading deities and selling them to the highest bidder. When a forgotten deity is forgotten, it becomes a Pareidolia, an ephemeral ghost that can be bound and traded like currency. Gods of forgotten waterfalls. Gods of extinct animals. Gods of childhood dreams never remembered. But Kaelen has a secret: he hears their whispers. Every captured god screams in his mind, and the only way to silence them is to find them a new owner. It's a curse. It's a business. It's survival. When he captures an unnamed god of pure malice—a shapeless, nameless thing that predates civilization—he thinks he's struck gold. Until he discovers the truth. This isn't a god. It's an Anti-God. The concept of endings made manifest. The end of empires. The end of bloodlines. The end of everything. Now, powerful factions are hunting him: the Veil Council wants to weaponize the Anti-God. The Shadow Syndicate wants to sell it to the highest bidder. And a mysterious woman from his past knows the Anti-God's true name—the one thing that could either bind it forever or unleash the apocalypse. Kaelen must run an impossible auction, selling the one thing that can end all things to a buyer who can contain it, before the world's most powerful players tear reality apart to claim it. But the Anti-God is patient. And it has been waiting for an Auctioneer who can finally hear its whisper. The End is coming. And Kaelen is holding the bidding paddle.
