Single Dad

In the canal city of Veythra, memory is currency and glass is its vault. Citizens pay skilled artisans to seal away their sharpest regrets, brightest joys, and most dangerous truths so that life can continue unburdened. Lira Voss is one of the finest of these glasswrights—quiet, precise, and privately unwilling to surrender any of her own past. When a veiled client commissions her to trap “what remains of the night I stopped dreaming,” Lira produces a sphere that refuses to stay inert. Something ancient and aware moves inside the glass, leaving living scars that heal themselves and a pulse that matches her own. Ordered to deliver the sphere to an unfinished tower and never look back, Lira disobeys. That single glance sets loose a cascade: sealed memories across the city begin to leak, the great Archive towers darken one by one, and the boundary between remembered and forgotten starts to dissolve. Lira discovers the sphere contains the final fragment of the First Forgetting—an entity older than the city that once allowed mortals to release pain and move forward. A secret order seeks to either free it completely (condemning everyone to remember every moment forever) or bind it so tightly that even necessary memory will be erased. As reality frays and her own locked drawer of private shards begins to sing in answer, Lira must decide whether to finish the work she started, destroy the fragment, or claim it. The choice will determine whether Veythra continues as a city of deliberate amnesia or collapses under the weight of everything it has tried to forget.

SYNOPSIS Beneath the shimmering lights of a city steeped in sin, Dante Rossi is a detective living in the shadows. He has successfully infiltrated the Valeriano family—the most feared mafia syndicate in existence—with a single mission: to gather the evidence needed to tear them down from the inside. As the personal bodyguard to Isabella Valeriano, the Don’s only daughter, Dante expects his greatest challenge to be the arrogance of a pampered heiress. However, behind the palace-like walls of the mansion, Isabella is no fragile doll. She is a woman of lethal intelligence, weaving her own web of betrayal. Isabella has known Dante’s true identity since day one, but rather than eliminating him, she transforms him into the primary pawn in her plan to overthrow her own father and avenge a childhood tragedy buried in blood. In this dangerous game of cat and mouse, the line between duty and desire begins to blur. Dante finds himself trapped between his oath to the law and a dark attraction to the woman he is meant to imprison. Meanwhile, Isabella begins to question if she can truly love someone destined to destroy her family’s legacy. When the night of the grand gala arrives, their secrets explode amidst the thunder of gunfire. Facing the barrel of a gun, Isabella and Dante must confront a bitter reality: in the world of the mafia, love is the deadliest weakness, and the only way to survive is to betray one another before the world destroys them both.

In the Nine-Fold Abyss-Heaven, destiny is a game rigged by the powerful. Ten years ago, a ruthless transmigrator named Victor claimed the "Sovereign System," ascending to godhood by consuming the luck and souls of everyone in his path. To the cosmos, he is a righteous savior. To those beneath his boot, he is an inescapable nightmare. When Julian transmigrates into the body of a discarded, talentless mining slave, Victor instantly flags him as a cosmic threat. Instead of granting a quick death, Victor inflicts absolute suppression—slashing Julian’s experience gains by 90%, shackling his soul, and publicly subjecting him to suffocating humiliation. To the world, Julian is a broken, unranked insect destined to crawl in the toxic spirit-ash. But Victor’s arrogance blinds him to the true nature of Julian’s interface: The Ashen Balance. Unlike standard systems, Julian cannot level up through easy victories or safe cultivation.

He will bleed for every single attribute point, rally the broken outcasts of the realms, and systematically dismantle the False Hero’s empire. Victor stole the heavens, but Julian will burn them down to pay the debt.

Adrian Kaine was once the deadliest operative in Shadow Unit, a black-ops division buried so deep in the government that most agents never lived long enough to speak of it. But when a mission in Kargath Province turned into a massacre, Adrian became the sole survivor, then the government’s most wanted traitor. His squad was slaughtered. Evidence was planted.
