Emma's life had always been predictable—a mix of quiet luxury she didn't choose and routines she couldn't break. She was used to keeping a low profile, tucked away from the world’s scrutiny and the constant rumors about her mysterious "sugar daddy." But during what should have been an ordinary work trip, something extraordinary happened. At the airport, she crossed paths with Leon Gray, a man who felt like he’d stepped right out of the pages of her favorite romance novels—too perfect, too enigmatic, and far too captivating to be real. From the moment he spoke, Leon felt like he knew her, offering to turn her into the heroine she’d always dreamed of being. Of course, it sounded crazy, but there was something in his words, a pull she couldn’t ignore. Before she could even process what was happening, Emma was thrown into a whirlwind where nothing made sense, and Leon’s presence seemed to drag her deeper into a reality she didn’t even know existed. What was supposed to be a simple trip ended up changing everything she thought she knew about herself—and her past.

The world is inhabited by two types of people: Humans and Irregulars. While Humans, who make up the majority, enjoy equality across different classes and cultures, Irregulars are a marginalized minority often kept separate from society. Their supernatural abilities, either inherited or awakened during adolescence, mark them as different, and often, dangerous. Three unique perspectives are about to collide: Elliot: A foster kid who stumbles into the wrong place at the wrong time, only to discover that he is an Irregular. Up until now, he's lived as a human, but his world is about to change in ways he never expected. Wendy: A determined young cop searching for her missing partner. While investigating a restricted area, she encounters Elliot and takes him in for questioning, unaware that this meeting will change the course of her mission. Devlon: A boy classified as an Irregular for as long as he can remember, kept hidden from the public eye. His life has been one of isolation-until now. With society pushing for Irregulars and Humans to integrate, tensions are rising. Each of these three faces a world that demands change, but how they respond could alter the future for both groups. When their small worlds collide, will events finally lead to peace between humans and irregulars? Or will this spark a new conflict altogether?
