Risk Return Trade Off

Many years have passed since the fall of Thanos. The universe, once torn by war, drifted into an era of fragile peace. But peace was always an illusion. A new threat has risen. One beyond comprehension. It does not seek power. It does not seek control. It seeks only one thing… the End of All. The last defenders of existence, the Universal Legion, stood against it. They lost. Entire civilizations were erased. Unbreakable empires fell like dust. Hope became a dying ember in the void. In their final moments, the Legion’s leader entrusted one last mission to their only survivor—Max Find Earth. Find the Avengers. They are the last hope of all existence. But how do you bring back heroes who are dead, lost, or erased from the reality itself? With reality collapsing and time unraveling, Max embarks on an impossible quest—one that will lead him through forbidden realms, dying stars, and shattered timelines to gather every Avenger who has ever lived. The fallen. The forgotten. The forsaken. None are beyond his reach. But as the greatest heroes in history return, they are confronted with a terrifying truth: Their existence is a paradox. Are they truly alive… or are they simply echoes of a universe trying to fix itself? As the final battle approaches, the Avengers face their greatest challenge yet: How do you fight a force that predates creation itself? How do you stop an enemy that sees you as nothing more than a mistake? Will they save existence… or will they become the key to its destruction? The fate of all living things hangs in the balance. The Avengers have returned… but this time, the war is not for a world, not for a galaxy… but for the very universe itself.

"Tell me to stop, Ruth," he whispered, letting his minty breathe fan over my lips. He sounded desperate.. broken. As it has always been with us, the word 'stop' was on the tip on my tongue, but what came out was entirely different. Cupping his face between my hands, I swallowed the lump in my throat, unable to make myself fight him - or myself - anymore. It was a losing battle, anyways. Looking him straight in the eye, I whispered back, "don't stop, Caleb. Not now... Not ever." ****** At first glance, Ruth Brooke's new boss Caleb Cross gave the impression of an immature, flirty playboy. At second glance, her first impressions were unsurprisingly confirmed. But what was surprising was the absence of her usual reaction to a casanova. Instead of dismissing him for the sarcastic player that he was, Ruth unwillingly feels drawn to him. She has always judged a book by its cover. But she is soon to find out that Caleb Cross is someone who has a shiny, new cover on every page of his book. And it is up to her to peel it off and discover the real Caleb Cross in all his gore, without losing her heart in the process. // Hey readers! This is my first novel, so please bear with me.
