Sanji Heart Eyes

Dean Harrington died betrayed and broken and killed by robotes, only to wake in a future pod, half man, half machine: Project HAIO, with trillions in his account and a mission from a dying resistance: stop World War X before it begins. To do it, he must snatch a woman from a merger that births the singularity, crash a proposal, seize a lab, and win the heart of the one woman destined to bear humanity's last hope. But a rival operative, Victor Kane, Project Shadow, resurrected like him, has returned from death with the same power and opposite orders. One wants to save humanity. The other wants to end it. In a war already bleeding into the present, only one can write the future. And neither may survive the cost.

But the higher he climbs, the more enemies he creates — and the shadows he commands begin to whisper his downfall. From the gutter to the godfather… from man to myth… this is the empire of shadows.

For three years, Andrea lived as nothing more than Sofia's obedient husband—a “useless live-in son-in-law,” bled dry to keep her precious Nickolas alive.

Death was supposed to be the end. Instead, it was only the beginning. When the arrogant son of a billionaire opens his eyes, he finds himself reborn in Aetherion, a ruthless world ruled by cultivation sects, elemental powers, and blood-soaked hierarchies. He awakens in the shattered body of an eighteen-year-old orphan—broken, discarded, and left to die after failing a cultivation test. In this world, the weak are resources, and mercy is a myth. Marked as talentless, hunted by fate, and surrounded by cruelty, he survives on nothing but willpower and a terrifying secret buried deep within his damaged core: Void—a forbidden power that does not create, but erases. As he struggles through hunger, violence, and human betrayal, his path collides with Selene Veyth, the cold and formidable daughter of a powerful cultivation sect leader, whose Blood-bound power is as deadly as the chains that bind her. Void and Blood should never coexist. Yet in a realm where strength is law and humanity is optional, survival demands impossible choices. This is not a tale of destiny. This is a story of endurance. In a world of magic and blood, how long can one remain human?

From the dying sky, alien seeds rain like judgment, exploding into ravenous emerald jungles that devour flesh, memory, and will in a single embrace.

To save what remains of humanity, Julian must commit the ultimate blasphemy: merge his mind, Lira’s lattice, and the heart of the alien invasion itself. One father’s forbidden choice will either buy the world a fragile tomorrow… or become the seed from which the next eternal green hell blooms.

“What good years, wasted on trash like you.” With these words, Orion cast off his old shell. His old personality. His old kindness. That betrayal was the last straw that broke apart the last vestiges of softness and kindness within his body. Such feelings weren't welcomed during an apocalypse anyways. If he could, he would thank them. Then kill them again. A lycan left no enemies alive after all. * Regressing to the beginning of the apocalypse with profound knowledge of the future and the betrayal of his closest friends in his heart, Orion sought only one thing. He would utilize everything that he could to become the strongest, even if it meant throwing his humanity away. That was the start of his reign. It was the slow Advent of the Void Lycan.
