killer

When mysterious Breaches tear open across Earth, unleashing monstrous beings known as Lurkers, humanity is forced into an uneasy dependence on the Spark Empire, a power that claims to protect the planet, but only at a cost. Xavier Constantine, a former Imperial prodigy turned resistance fighter, survives what should have been a fatal encounter with a terrifying monster. By his side is Malek, a stubborn frontline fighter with an unbreakable resolve to protect his world at any cost. Together, they are pulled into a conflict far larger than Earth itself. Because the Breaches aren’t accidents. The Empire isn’t telling the full truth. And somewhere beyond their world, a god is hunting for Divinity. Caught between rebellion, alien empires, and forces that blur the line between humanity and divinity, Xavier and Malek must decide what they're willing to become.

Author’s Note This book did not begin with a grand plan for publication or a desire to reach a vast audience. Instead, it grew from a personal need to build a world where the air is thick with the scent of cold iron, where engines rumble in the depths of forgotten canyons, and where flawed individuals struggle to survive against impossible odds. I wrote this story, first and foremost, for myself. While the setting is one of rust and airships, the heartbeat of the narrative is deeply personal. I have drawn from the well of my own experiences to breathe life into these characters and the trials they face. Their struggles with shame, their desperate need for autonomy, and the rough-edged humor they use as a shield are all echoes of my own journey. Every scar described in these pages, whether physical or unseen, carries a piece of my own history. Writing this has been a way for me to explore the resilience of the human spirit—the way we find hope gleaming like an oil slick in the dark, and the way we learn to stand our ground even when the world feels like it's grinding us down. Now that I am opening the gates of this world to you, my only hope is that you find something in it that resonates. I hope you feel the vibration of the engines beneath your feet and find something familiar and human within these pages. Welcome to the wreckage. Mind the sharp edges.

Wondered if a cryptomining app would make you a Superhero..or villain? Damen Dark is an unfortunate orphan trapped in a cruel household, forced to endure the abuse of his uncle, his family, and a world that seems determined to break him. One ordinary day, he receives a mysterious link on his phone advertising a new app—DemCoin, a cryptocurrency mining program. Damen knows it’s probably a scam. But curiosity gets the better of him. At first, the app seems harmless. It “mines” coins by targeting living beings—stray animals… and people. With little expectation, Damen uses it as a private outlet for his bottled-up anger, siphoning coins from those who torment him: his family, his classmates, the bullies who rule the streets. It feels like justice. It feels good. But DemCoin is far more than a mining app. As Damen accumulates enough coins, hidden features unlock—features that allow him to target individuals and steal their powers. What begins as survival turns into temptation, and temptation into transformation. With every stolen ability, Damen grows stronger… and more dangerous. Now faced with unimaginable power, Damen must choose who he will become. Will he take revenge on a world that never showed him mercy, or rise as a hero to protect it? The truth lies somewhere in between. In a cruel twist of fate, Damen soon realizes the irony of power: the stronger he becomes, the greater the threats that hunt him. And worse still, DemCoin is not just a tool—it is a force, subtly guiding his path. Whether he knows it or not, the app isn’t shaping him into a savior. It is forging a supervillain. And Damen Dark may have no choice but to become exactly that.

In a world where strength reigns supreme, Lin Shu walks a path paved with blood and ambition. Marked by ruthless determination, he seeks power above all else, casting aside weakness, mercy, and anything that stands in his way. His journey is one of endless trials, each battle shaping him into something more fearsome, more relentless. To him, domination is not a goal—it is the only path. His hands are stained with the lives of those who dared to cross him, his gaze cold and unreadable, reflecting the abyss he has embraced. He does not chase honor, nor does he care for bonds; all that matters is the ascent, no matter the cost. As he carves his way forward, leaving ruin in his wake, one question lingers: when power is all that remains, what will be left of the man who sought it?

Deon stood on the rusted edge of the Blackwood Bridge with nothing left to lose, ready to surrender to the current. The plan was simple: one step, a cold plunge, and silence. But the silence never came. Instead, he found Avina—a woman in a faded pair of ripped jeans and a baggy, oversized t-shirt, looking like she’d just stepped out of a convenience store appeared right beside him with a terrifying smile and a twisted sense of "help." She offered to help him finish the job, laughing as she confessed that the river was her favorite place to make bodies disappear. Terrified by the sudden reality of death, Deon tries to back away. However, with a manic laugh and a violent shove, Avina sends them both plummeting into the icy depths below. The nightmare isn't that he died. It’s that he didn’t. Deon wakes up in the Blackwood Estate. It’s not the crumbling ruin the locals describe; it’s a masterpiece of polished mahogany, gleaming marble, and spotless windows. The air is fresh, and the floors are waxed to a mirror shine. But elegance is a lie. Chained by the ankle to a heavy bedpost in a room that is too clean to be lived in, Deon realizes he’s found something worse than the grave and realizes the horrifying truth: Avina didn't save him out of kindness. She saved him because she doesn't like to see good things go to waste. Now, trapped in a silent, beautiful cage, Deon must find a way to escape a woman who sees his life as her favorite game. Because in a house this clean, there’s only one thing she hates more than a mess: a toy that won't play along.

Orion Stone was broken long before he ever killed. From childhood, he learned how to wear a mask - how to smile, speak, and live among others while hiding what lay beneath. Behind that mask was a man obsessed with death, drawn to it from both sides of the table. By day, he was a respected doctor. By night, a meticulous serial killer. For years, he lived freely. Untouchable. Until Detective Granger ended his game. Exposed to the world, stripped of his false identity, Orion was swiftly processed and sentenced to death. The lethal injection claimed his life… ...or so it should have. Death was only the beginning. Orion awakens in another world - one ruled by a volatile energy called ether, where strength decides everything and mercy is a weakness. Born into the powerful Varyn family as the son of an unofficial third wife, he is shunned, ignored, and cast aside from birth. But he is not powerless. His rebirth is marked by the awakening of the Eyes of Dominion - mysterious golden eyes that grant him control over people, ether, and reality itself. Eyes that bend wills. Eyes that command submission. Eyes that should not exist. In a world as cruel and unforgiving as this one, Orion thrives after refinding himself. As shadows move within his own family and greater forces stir beyond it, Orion must grow stronger in secrecy, manipulating allies and enemies alike. Step by step, from the bottom of the hierarchy to its very peak, he will carve his path. With the Eyes of Dominion watching over the world… It is only a matter of time before the world kneels. P.S.
