The Mafia Couple

Jason sank to his knees as smoke swallowed the sky, the color of it an angry crimson, like the world itself was bleeding. The house before him, her house, collapsed in slow motion, boards shrieking and crumbling as if mourning their own destruction. His chest caved with a ragged sob, the kind that seemed to come from somewhere deeper than his lungs, deeper even than his body. Everything around him blurred—faces, sirens, flames—until all that remained was the ash. He should have looked away. Should have closed his eyes. But he didn't. He couldn't. The paramedics moved solemnly through the smoke, their silhouettes stark against the firelit haze. The stretchers were draped in white sheets—too still, too final. He counted them without meaning to. One... two... three. Jason didn't flinch. His heart was hollowed out, like something had been carved from within him with a hot blade. It should've been him. Not Selena. "No," he whispered hoarsely, his voice splintering. "No, it can't be." He stumbled backward, eyes wide, brain refusing to bridge the gap between what he saw and what he believed. Reality came in slow waves, each one more unbearable than the last. And then he was moving, sprinting toward the stretchers with a desperate, raw urgency. A rescuer with no one left to save. "Selena," he choked, reaching trembling hands toward the nearest form. The heat of the fire still lingered in the air, as if the world itself was scorched. He lifted the sheet with shaking fingers. What stared back at him was no longer her face—just blackened skin, unrecognizable. His mind rejected it. It can't be her. It isn't.

In a desperate, agonizing transformation, he awakens the 'Apex Protocol,' a primal system that unleashes monstrous power, turning him into a terrifying force of nature. Haunted by Elara's scream and battling the Protocol's feral whispers, Kael embarks on a relentless quest through the desolate Dustlands. He navigates treacherous landscapes, confronts mutated horrors, and clashes with Ragnar's relentless raiders, all while struggling to retain his humanity. Along the way, he forms a tense alliance with the Ash Runners, a band of rebels fighting Ragnar's tyranny. Their journey leads them to the Iron Citadel, Ragnar's formidable stronghold, where Kael discovers Ragnar's horrifying connection to the Void Blight – a sentient, malevolent entity. As Kael confronts Ragnar in a cataclysmic battle, he uncovers the Apex Protocol's true purpose: an ancient countermeasure against the Blight. Faced with the ultimate choice, Kael must fully embrace the monstrous power within to sever the Blight's core, risking his very soul to save his sister and the dying world. The novel culminates in a brutal victory, leaving Kael as the 'Silent Guardian,' forever walking the line between man and beast, a beacon of hope in a world slowly healing.
