First Love

For three years Kai Mercer cleaned their cars, ate their leftovers, and answered to whatever name they felt like calling him that day. He let them. Not because he was weak. Not because he had no choice. Because the people who sent him into the Shen household told him to wait. To watch. To learn exactly how rotten their empire was from the inside before he burned it down. Then they dragged him out in front of three hundred guests, handed him divorce papers with his wife's signature already dry on the last page, and threw him into the street like he was never a man at all. That was the last mistake they will ever make. Kai Mercer is not who they think he is. He never was. And every person who smiled while they destroyed him is about to find out that the nobody they threw away was the only thing standing between them and the most powerful family in the country. He is not coming back for revenge. He is coming back to collect. And this time nobody is walking him to the door.

Arthur York gave his loyalty to his wife, Seraphina, and his sweat to her family business. In return, they gave him five years in prison.

The world didn't end with a bang. It ended with hunger. When the apocalypse arrives, Ryan Cole does what millions of ordinary people do—he locks himself inside his apartment and waits for help.
