Protective

A few months before Emily turns 18, her father dies. She goes to Baguio to live with her mother, her stepfather Miguel, and her half-brother Migo.

Good thing, Emily seems to be friendly enough to have made new pals, like Denver, who, it turns out, sees her as more than a friend.

She feels she has found in Lance her knight in shining armor who will rescue her from her incurable loneliness and deathly sadness. But Emily's family and friends are alarmed that she has become secluded and deluded in her own imaginary world. In the end, she has to decide what matters most to her and where her heart truly is.

They don't know that behind the counter of a betting shop on Tanyard Road, the man they laugh at runs Keystone, the faceless firm whose seal holds up half the city's skyline. And they don't know that whoever swapped the bolts on that bridge stamped every one of them with Keystone's mark. Now the city wants Keystone's face. The golden.

During one of his training, he discovered the stranger was one of the highest orders of the legerdemain tribunal known as the minister of magic Valdimir.

They married him for his blood. They never asked who he was. For three years, the wealthy Ashcombes kept Lorcan Harlow as a living blood supply for their sick son, and they called him the blood bag. Then one night, they drugged him and laid him on a surgical table to take his heart. He woke up under the scalpel. The penniless orphan they mocked is secretly the Navigator, the faceless founder of an underground empire spanning forty ports. He married into their house to hunt the people who caged him as a child. Then a photo arrives. The sister he watched burn fourteen years ago is alive, and if his harvest fails, she goes on the table next. To save her, he must lie back down and let them believe they've won.

To save his family, he had to stop being human. Twenty-four-year-old Jid has spent his life in the dirt, breathing the rust of the Bulwark slums. As the sole guardian of his younger sister, Sommy, his world is measured in scraps of bread and the hours of backbreaking labor he sells to the powerful guilds. He doesn’t dream of glory; he dreams of a roof that doesn't leak and a meal that doesn't taste like ash. But the world outside the walls is changing. The "Infected" are evolving, and the shadows are growing teeth. When a high-stakes raid into the forbidden zones turns into a bloody execution, Jid is the one left behind. Betrayed and gutted by the monsters in the dark, he should have died in the mud. Instead, something ancient and hungry found him first. Jid wakes up to a world he no longer recognizes. The pain is gone, replaced by a cold, mechanical pulse in his mind and a shimmering gold light in his eyes. A strange, haunting interface now dictates his every move, granting him powers that defy the laws of time and biology—powers that the ruling corporations would kill to own. But the "System" isn't a gift. It’s a tether to an outer-world threat that views humanity as nothing more than ink on a page, ready to be erased. Now, Jid must return to the city that abandoned him, hiding the monster he is becoming while using his new abilities to protect the only person he has left. He survived the death of his old life, but as the hunger grows and the "System" begins to rewrite his soul, Jid realizes the hardest part isn't surviving the dead—it’s surviving the thing he’s turning into. And whatever is coming for him.
