EMPIRE OF CHANCE
In a world where magic is the ultimate corporate currency, one man's ability to bend probability could either save the city—or burn it to the ground.
When billionaire CEO Alex Thompson survives an impossible car crash, he awakens with a dangerous gift: the power to manipulate probability itself. In the neon-drenched streets of New Eden, where corporate empires are built on ancient magic and reality bends to those who control it, Alex's newfound abilities make him the most valuable—and hunted—man alive.
But when he discovers his trusted assistant Maya is actually a witch sent to monitor him, everything shatters. She was his warden, not his ally. Now, as a malevolent cabal called the Architects emerges to exploit his powers and collapse all probability into one predetermined fate, Alex faces an impossible choice: trust the woman who betrayed him to save humanity's free will, or embrace absolute control and become the monster everyone fears.
In a deadly game where trust is illusion and control is corruption, Alex must learn the hardest lesson of all—true power isn't bending fate to your will. It's having the courage to let go.
The fate of New Eden hangs in the balance. And the probability of survival? Impossible to calculate.
