**An emperor who refused to rule with blood. A prince who refused to love with restraint.** Elliott Lancaster, the gentle Emperor of a fractured empire, has spent his life avoiding war-and his father's attempts to force him into a political marriage. Instead, he adopted an orphaned noble boy, Aiden, raising him as both heir and unlikely companion. But their bond was never that of father and son. Aiden Lancaster, the perfect prince in court and a storm of violence on the battlefield, has waited years to prove himself. He is devoted to his adopted father- some might even say, too devoted. Still, up till now, he was restrained by Elliott's desire for peace, despite their enemies poking them again and again. But Aiden's patience had its limits- but this underhanded tactic was the straw which broke the camel's back. Now unrestrained, he wages a war so brutal it shocks the empire. When Elliott awakens to find borders redrawn in blood, he must confront the terrifying truth: the boy he raised has become a conqueror, and his devotion has twisted into something far more dangerous. As court factions' scheme and the temple condemns their unnatural bond, Elliott faces an impossible choice: maintain his morals and risk losing Aiden or embrace the ruthless love of the man who would burn the world to protect him.

She is known as the undefeated lawyer who never loses a case. To the world, she is untouchable, sharp, calm, and cold enough to keep even the most powerful men at a distance. No one knows the battles she’s fought to stand where she is, or the daughter she would give everything to protect. He is a man the world watches, a billionaire whose name alone can silence boardrooms and command empires. To most, he is ruthless, distant, a shadow, filled with power and secrets. But behind the wealth and control, lies a man haunted by a single choice that changed everything. They have spent years living lives built on walls and silence, unaware that fate is quietly bringing their paths back together. When betrayal threatens to burn down everything, he has built, he hires the best defense money can buy, unbeknownst that the woman stepping into his world is the one he once let slip away. She doesn’t recognize the man before her, cloaked in a new name and a hardened presence that hides the boy she once knew. He sees her, but he doesn’t know if he has the right to reach for her again. As danger circles closer and enemies watch for weakness, they are forced to work side by side, their lives entangled in a case that could destroy them both. Each stolen glance becomes a reminder of a past neither can outrun. Each argument leaves them breathless with memories they can’t afford to remember. In the shadows of boardrooms and courtrooms, as secrets rise and sparks fly, they find themselves asking the question they both buried long ago: can love survive the damage of time and betrayal? And when the world demands their loyalty, will they fight for each other, or walk away again, all in the name of love?

=== WSA 2025 === Way before I was even born, my world was invaded. Actually, not just my world, my entire damn universe was overrun by another, led by a single race that called themselves the Eternals. And they were prepared. Very prepared. Every life we lost in the war against them was used by them. They didn’t just kill people, they captured their souls, forged them into Phantoms, and used the souls to twist beasts into Abominations. Our dead became their army. Three hundred years later, I was born. A guy with way too much energy. Sitting still? Impossible. Taking it slow? Not happening. I was always moving, always ready to burst into action. Then I awakened, and got a talent too. My Talent's Name Was Generator. Because of it I never ran out of energy. Ever. My muscles? Supercharged. My healing? Faster. My stamina? Please, I had no idea what being tired even felt like. So if the universe wanted to throw an endless war at me? Fine. I’d throw everything I had right back. I wasn’t born a hero. Never wanted to be one. But this war? It wasn’t just my universe’s fight anymore. It was mine. The Eternals made sure of that when they took my parents' souls.
