Callum Pierce thought his life was perfectly under control—wealth, power, and the CEO title of a gaming company most people only dream of working at. But then the dreams started: memories of being Prince Caelan, the golden heir to a kingdom betrayed and destroyed—and of Ashur, the stablehand he’d loved with his whole soul. Now, Callum’s sure of two things: reincarnation is real, and Micah Liu, the shy but ridiculously talented intern at his company, is Ashur reborn. But in this life, Micah is a stranger—and worse, he has a boyfriend; Damian Wells. Reincarnation was not on Callum’s bingo card, and neither was this absurd, awkward love triangle.

Can he uncover the truth behind their tragic downfall before history repeats itself? And most importantly, can he survive the awkward lunch dates?

In a remote corner of the Multiverse, Gaia is a flat and infinite world that serves as a connection point between all the universes that have existed, exist, and will exist. When a universe dies, its inhabitants—beings of countless forms and races—are transported to Gaia, where they must start anew. Each arrival causes Gaia to expand, creating new territories to explore and colonize. The new inhabitants enjoy 10 years of protection to settle and reorganize before chaos erupts again. Gaia operates under a system similar to a video game, where each being possesses a personal interface displaying their level, skills, and achievements. This system allows inhabitants to improve, but also punishes their actions, creating fierce competition for resources and power. Additionally, those who manage to reach an advanced level in Gaia have the opportunity to move to a newly born universe. Gaia is not just a refuge, but a launching platform for the strongest, who can claim a place in the soon-to-be-born universe, while also fighting for survival in this chaotic and flat world.
