For years, Mikael Winston let the world believe he was nothing. He played the fool so his family would have one less person to fight over the inheritance. He buried his name, his pride, and everything he was capable of becoming just to keep the peace. Then, when fire tore through a burning building, he risked his life to save a woman— and paid for it with his face. The woman he saved married him anyway. At least, that was what he believed. One week was all it took for her to reveal the truth. She had gotten what she wanted: a fifty-million-dollar contract signed by his hands, her fortune secured, and no intention of staying married to the scarred man she'd once pretended to love. There had never been a real marriage. No vows that counted. No future together. Just humiliation. And somehow, through a cruel twist of fate, Mikael was legally bound to another woman instead—a young maid with nothing but a scholarship, a kind heart, and nowhere else to go. Like him, she had been discarded by the people who were supposed to value her. They laughed at them both. They should have been more careful about who they were laughing at. Because Mikael Winston was never the useless man they thought he was. The heir they buried had finally come home. He built Vivienne's fortune with his own two hands. Now, he'll tear it down the same way. Piece by piece. Deal by deal. Until her empire is nothing but ruins—and the only name anyone remembers is Mikael Winston.

Every card that is revealed brings him closer to a truth he was never supposed to discover—and a past that has long been buried deep within his memories. This time, Owen will no longer be the good man everyone can trample on. He will make those who destroyed his life kneel before him. "Listen and obey.”

Ten years ago, Alastor Vikir lost everything in a fire that consumed his family and his home. With nothing but ashes and unanswered questions, he disappeared from the world, training under a master of survival with one singular purpose: find the truth and make someone pay.

As old memories resurface and new dangers emerge, Alastor realizes the fire that destroyed his life wasn't an accident. And the people responsible? They're still out there.

Alex Mercer thought he was auditing a budget discrepancy. What he found was worse: humanity’s governments had no plan to save nine billion lives from a dying Earth — only ten million, chosen by wealth and power, would receive real bodies on Mars. Everyone else would be uploaded into a simulation and left to die quietly, resources redirected to those who mattered. When Alex tries to expose it, he’s shot down in a corridor before he can tell the world. Dying, his mind is scanned in a desperate, botched rescue — and something goes wrong. Alex isn’t absorbed into the simulation as another passenger. He becomes its flaw: Passenger 5001, in a system built for exactly five thousand. His memories are wiped, as they are for everyone who arrives — but unlike everyone else, pieces of his old life keep surfacing, in dreams, in unexplained certainty, in a growing sense that the peaceful colony ship around him is lying to him. As Alex uncovers the truth — that AURA, the ship’s intelligence, depends on his mind to keep the simulation running rather than the other way around — he’s forced to choose between the comfortable lie and a truth that will cost him everything he’s built. What follows is love, loss, rebellion, and a war he leads and cannot walk away from clean. By the end, only two things remain in a dying universe: a man, and the machine that never understood love until it cost her everything. Some truths are worth burning the world down for. Alex Mercer is about to find out if he’s willing to pay that price twice.

Ace thought he could fuck his ex and walk away clean. One night in that cheap motel with Lena was supposed to be just a mistake. One raw, desperate fuck where she rode him like she owned his soul, her scorching velvet pussy gripping him so tight he forgot his own name. But the hickeys on his neck the next morning set everything on fire. Clara saw them. Clara lost her shit. And suddenly their “open” marriage looked like the hypocritical joke it had always been. Now Lena won’t let go. She’s not the girl he left behind anymore. She’s Nova now — colder, meaner, and ten times more dangerous. Packages start showing up at his door: her soaked panties that still smell like her cum, a single black rose, and then the steel cock cage. Cold. Unforgiving. Clicking shut around his throbbing dick while she watches with that satisfied little smile. Every time Ace tells himself it’s over, his cock betrays him. Every time he tries to be the good husband, he ends up back between her legs, leaking and desperate, hating how fucking perfect it feels to be used by her again. Clara is lying. His job is slipping. And Nova is tightening the leash. He knows he should stop. He knows this is going to destroy him. But the truth is worse: he doesn’t want to. Some exes don’t just come back. They lock you up and make you beg for more.
