Test Subject No. 0604, nicknamed Hel after the Norse goddess of Death for her destructive behaviour towards the people. An incredible specimen that was once deemed impossible to create with only science until she was found by the colleagues of her late father. Hel was then moved to Xellene, one of the world’s most top secret research centres, where she was tortured and experimented on to create a human weapon capable for warfare for almost a decade. She was supposedly doing well until, recent scans of her brain revealed that her once inactive or ‘dead’ parts of her brain has started reacting to emotions. Blake Wilson and his group of researchers’ current mission now was to find the cause of her sudden change in brain activity, but they can’t seem to figure it out. Around a few days after this was discovered, a new addition was added to Xellene’s staff. Liam Wright, a prominent young psychologist that was transferred from Recel after an unfortunate accident that has scarred him for life. He was unexpectedly asked a favour by the President himself to take care of their most dangerous experiment, Hel. He reluctantly agrees and meets her for the first time and oddly finds himself mesmerised by the charms of the so called ‘monster’. And like how he was feeling, Hel had started to anticipate meeting Liam everyday. As they grow closer, Hel hears stories of the outside world from Liam and finds herself growing more curious of what the world looked like. As her curiosity grew, her interest for the young man did as well and after months of careful planning, Hel decides to escape from but she needs help. When Liam finally decides to lend her a hand, will they escape safely and live normal lives again or will her captors find her first and send her back to her dark horrid cell?

In the kingdom of Ustaria, power and ambition rule, and the throne is the ultimate prize. As the once-mighty King Harley Pennington succumbs to age and illness, the question of who will succeed him sets the royal family and noble houses into a spiraling conflict. Harley, a shrewd but frail monarch, clings desperately to his power, unable to choose between his children, each vying for the throne in their own way. His favoritism toward his reckless youngest son, Prince David, blinds him to the chaos he is creating, as the kingdom teeters on the edge of collapse. The eldest son, Prince Harris, is a seasoned warrior and natural leader, but his impulsive nature and reliance on brute strength make him a divisive figure at court. Princess Ruby, the youngest daughter, is beloved by the people for her intelligence and grace, yet she remains entangled in the webs of court intrigue, unwillingly used as a political pawn. Princess Lilliana, with her foreign ties and secret ambitions, hides her cunning behind a mask of loyalty, biding her time to make her own play for power. Meanwhile, Lord Hugo Wilde, a cunning and vengeful noble, plots in the shadows to usurp the Pennington dynasty. His son, Elliot Wilde, a charming yet calculating figure, is caught between his father’s ambition and his growing love for Princess Ruby. As their dangerous romance unfolds, Elliot becomes embroiled in the deadly game of thrones, balancing his loyalty to his father with the allure of true love. Within the royal court, alliances shift and betrayals simmer beneath the surface. The noble houses, restless and hungry for power, begin to align themselves with different heirs. Foreign nations bribe Ustaria’s nobility, stoking the flames of civil war, and the kingdom is soon caught in a storm of political machinations, secret affairs, and deadly rivalries. As King Harley’s grip on the throne loosens, the Pennington children—each with their own secrets, desires, and dark pasts—are thrust into a brutal contest for the crown. Old loyalties are shattered, and trust becomes a rare commodity. When the king finally falls, the battle for Ustaria’s future will begin, and the cost of the crown may be more than any of them can bear. In this tale of power, betrayal, and love, the true enemy may not be the one holding the sword, but the one holding your heart.
