In *Covenants of Chaos*, **Lucas Kane** is a young man fighting to survive in a world that seems determined to crush him. Overwhelmed by debt, working long hours at a dead-end delivery job, and caring for his ailing mother, Evelyn, Lucas’ life takes a dark and unexpected turn when he is hit by a speeding car. The accident should have killed him, but instead, it awakens something extraordinary within him: a **Covenant**, a supernatural ability that allows him to see glimpses of the future. --- The Awakening Lucas discovers that his newfound power isn’t just a blessing—it’s a curse. The visions of the future are disorienting and painful, and they come with no instruction manual. Worse, his awakening doesn’t go unnoticed. The Moretti crime family, to whom Lucas’ family owes a large debt, takes a sudden interest in him. **Silas Moretti**, the ruthless mafia don, sees Lucas as a valuable asset in his quest for power and control. To bind Lucas to him, Silas forces Lucas into a marriage with his daughter, **Aria Moretti**, promising that this union will erase the Kane family’s debt. --- The Marriage of Convenience Lucas and Aria’s relationship begins with hostility and mistrust. Lucas views Aria as a privileged, untouchable mafia princess, while Aria sees Lucas as weak and desperate. However, as Lucas is dragged deeper into the Moretti family's world of crime, betrayal, and violence, he begins to see that Aria is just as much a victim of her father’s ambition as he is. She despises her father’s empire and dreams of escaping his control. Their shared desire for freedom becomes the foundation for an unlikely partnership.

    Chapter One: Prologue
    The city buzzed with its typical turmoil—a symphony of honking horns, distant sirens, and the soft murmur of people carrying on with their daily routines. For Lucas Kane, the sound merely served as a backdrop to the gradual disintegration of his own reality. His hand clenched the steering wheel of his worn delivery van, his knuckles white against the torn vinyl.“Come on, come on,” Lucas murmured, looking at his phone on the dashboard. The GPS blinked with the message Recalculating route. This was the third occurrence this evening, and his patience was dwindling.A voice distorted over his low-cost Bluetooth earpiece. "Lucas, you're behind schedule." Once more.“I’m five minutes out,” Lucas replied sharply, his tone edged with frustration. He could hear **Tony**, his boss, exhale heavily on the other end.“Five minutes is too late,” Tony snapped. “These people don’t wait. You screw this up again, and I’m docking your pay. You got that?”Lucas bit back the urge to argue. What was the p

    Chapter Two: A Calm Voice
    Lucas’ grip on the phone tightened. “Who is this?”"You are aware of my identity." The tone was steady, nearly casual, yet there was a sharpness to it that caused Lucas’ stomach to twist. "Silas Moretti."Lucas gulped heavily. His mouth became parched. “What is it that you want?”A quiet laugh came from the other side. "What is it that I *desire*?" Lucas, you’ve been avoiding me for months. What I desire is for you to settle what you owe. However, I consider myself a rational person. I understand you’re… facing difficulties.”“I’ve got nothing,” Lucas replied rapidly, his heart pounding. "I'm putting forth my utmost effort.""The most you can do isn't sufficient," Silas responded. “However, I’m in a giving mood this evening.” I believe we can come to an agreement. Why not drop by my office? "Let's engage in a brief conversation."“Don’t make me send someone to fetch you,” Silas interrupted, his tone hardening. “You won’t like the alternative.”The line went dead.Lucas stared at the p

    Chapter Three: The Accident
    The rain fell intensely, striking the windshield of Lucas' van as he sped down the nearly deserted streets. The wipers squealed against the glass, striving to operate, but they battled to keep up with the tempest. He leaned forward, gazing through the rain, one hand securely on the wheel while the other tapped on his phone mounted on the dashboard.“Rerouting,” the GPS announced for the third time that evening.“Of course, you are,” Lucas muttered. He glanced at the clock. Ten minutes past the delivery window. Another late order. Tony was going to chew him out again, and he couldn’t afford another paycheck deduction. Not with the Morettis breathing down his neck.The phone buzzed, and Tony’s name flashed on the screen. Lucas groaned, tapping the answer button.“Yeah, I know,” Lucas said before Tony could start. “I’m late. The GPS is—”“Don’t give me that crap, Lucas!” Tony barked, his voice loud even through the cheap Bluetooth earpiece. “This is the third time this week! You think cu

    Chapter Four: Beneath the waters
    Darkness swallowed everything.Then appeared the sound—initially faint, resembling a whisper beneath water. It intensified, became more piercing, until it transformed into a voice."Hello!" Are you able to hear me? "Don't leave me, dude!"Lucas moaned, his head throbbing. He opened one eye slightly, but everything around him was a hazy mix of rain and blinking streetlights. A face loomed over him, outlined by the broken pieces of the windshield—a young man in a hoodie, his look desperate.“Oh, thank goodness,” the man exclaimed, relief pouring into his tone. "You exist." I was thinking—uh, forget it. "Simply stay still, alright?"“What… what happened?” Lucas croaked. His throat felt raw, and every word burned.“Dude, you got T-boned. Like, bad. Some psycho just plowed into you and took off. I called 911. They’ll be here in a sec.”Lucas blinked, trying to focus. Pain radiated through his body in sharp, jagged waves. His hands trembled as he tried to push himself up, but the guy in the

    Chapter Five: The Covenant Awakens
    The sharp beep of the heart monitor was the first sound Lucas heard as he started to regain consciousness. His eyelids appeared extremely heavy, and his body pulsed as if it had gone through a meat grinder. The odor of antiseptic filled his nostrils. A healthcare establishment. He groaned, trying to shift, but each muscle protested in opposition."Is that you, Lucas?" Oh, what a relief.His mother's voice cut through the fog, soft and quivering. He blinked, trying to force his eyes open. Evelyn Kane sat beside his bed, donning a worn cardigan that fell gently over her slim frame. Her skin was pale, and her eyes were rimmed in red, suggesting she hadn't slept for days."Mom?" His voice came out hoarse, barely above a whisper. "What... what happened?""You were in an accident," she said hastily, leaning in closer. "An automobile accident." They claimed… they claimed it was unfortunate, Lucas. "They were uncertain if you would..." Her voice wavered, and she held his hand firmly, as if sh

    Chapter Six: The World
    The world around me warped, similar to a camera lens refining its focus. For a short time, he was lying in the hospital bed. He then discovered that he was positioned in the middle of a poorly lit alley. The rain was gone, creating a disconcerting stillness. The air felt thick and heavy, as though it were pressing down on him."What the...?""Luca."He swiftly turned when he heard his name. A shadowy figure stood at the alley's entrance, enveloped in gloom. It was the same person as before—the one donned in the trench coat and wide-brimmed hat. Even with his face hidden, Lucas felt the coldness and intensity of his gaze.“Who might you be?” Lucas insisted, his voice resonating in the deserted alley.The man did not reply. Rather, he lifted his hand, indicating straight at Lucas."What is your desire?" Lucas yelled, stepping back. "What on earth is this?"The man's voice eventually emerged, deep and rough, as if it were crawling over rock. "You have been selected.""Selected?" Lucas sa

    Chapter Seven: Debt and Desperation
    The kitchen table shook a bit as Lucas rested on it, gazing at the pile of bills spread out before him. The gentle buzz of the aged refrigerator broke the stillness in the small apartment. His mother's tea cup, only partially filled and cold, remained undisturbed next to his elbow. His fingers tapped on the table while he once more mentally computed the impossible figures."Lucas?" Evelyn's voice softly echoed from the hallway, filled with uncertainty."Sure, Mom?" he answered, still not glancing up."Did you settle the electricity bill?" she inquired, entering the room. She had on one of her old sweaters, loose on her delicate figure, her hands quivering a bit as she sat down opposite him."It’s included in the list," Lucas grumbled, pushing one of the envelopes aside. "I'm focusing on the rent and the healthcare expenses.""They're about to turn off the power again," she murmured, her voice quiet as a whisper. "It occurred last month, do you recall?"“I know,” Lucas said sharply, th

    Chapter Eight: The Weight Of Their Threat
    Lucas snatched the paper and slammed the door shut, locking it. He leaned against it, his breathing heavy, the weight of their threat sinking in.“Lucas?” Evelyn’s voice came from the kitchen, shaky and full of fear.“It’s fine, Mom,” Lucas called back, forcing his tone to stay calm. “Just some delivery guys looking for the wrong address.”---Back in the kitchen, Lucas dropped into the chair and stared at the paper the men had left. It wasn’t the usual bill or warning notice. This was something else. A formal invitation.“What’s that?” Evelyn asked, her eyes darting to the paper.Lucas hesitated, then slid it across the table. “It’s from Moretti.”Evelyn’s face paled as she read the letter. “He… wants to meet with you?”“ Yeah,” Lucas replied evenly, his tone laden with apprehension. “Apparently, I’ve been ‘invited’ to his office to talk about the debt.”“You can't leave,” Evelyn responded instantly, shaking her head. “Lucas, you are aware of the type of man Silas Moretti is.” “If yo

    Chapter Nine: The Proposal
    Silas leaned forward in his chair, the dim light casting sharp shadows on his face. He scrutinized Lucas with the calmness of a hunter, his fingers softly tapping on the sleek surface of his desk. The area was hauntingly quiet, aside from the gentle ticking of a clock affixed to the wall. Lucas sat stiffly in the chair opposite him, his mind racing, his hands tightened against his thighs."Are you listening to me, Mr. Kane?" Silas spoke, his tone silky yet infused with command. "I’m presenting you an escape route."Lucas blinked, jolting himself back to reality. "Sure, I listened to you." However… wed your daughter? "Are you for real?"Silas tilted his head, smiling faintly. “I don’t waste time with jokes.”Lucas let out a disbelieving laugh, leaning back in his chair. “This is insane. You’re telling me you want *me*—a broke delivery guy drowning in debt—to marry your daughter? What kind of game are you playing here?”Silas’ smile faded, and his voice dropped a note. “This is no game,

    Chapter Ten: Meeting Isabella
    The space was tranquil, interrupted solely by the soft ticking of a timepiece on the distant wall. Lucas sat rigidly in the leather armchair, his hands placed on his thighs. His thoughts were speeding, his nerves frayed. The immaculate, refined office—probably one of Silas Moretti's numerous belongings—felt constricting, the burden of uncertainty bearing down on him.The door opened wide, and Silas stepped in, his presence enveloping the room like a tempest. A young woman followed him, walking with determination, her expression showing a calm apathy. She didn't glance at Lucas immediately, her attention set on something far off. Her lengthy dark hair cascaded over her shoulders, and she donned a fitted black dress that exuded affluence and authority.“Lucas Kane,” Silas spoke, breaking the silence with his voice, “I’d like you to meet my daughter, Isabella.”Lucas stood uncomfortably, shoving his hands into his pockets. “Um… hello there.”Isabella's gaze finally zeroed in on him, keen
