The First James Patterson

Before breath. Before name. Before flesh. In the primordial sea where consciousness stirs before birth, two unborn souls drift through a dreamscape of forgotten gods, ancient truths, and shapeless teachings. Hector and Victoria are not yet children. Not yet anything. But in this realm outside of time, they awaken — and learn. Guided by beings long erased from memory, they explore a world woven from thought itself — the Web of Consciousness, where every being’s magic is born and defined. From gods of grief and forgotten desire to elemental truths etched into silence, each encounter grants Hector and Victoria power, wisdom, and mystery. They are not told who they will become — only that the thread they weave is different. But they are not alone. Far across the mortal world, an empress makes a pact with an angel, bearing a child shaped by divine law. In the decaying lands of demons, a king’s hatred invites an angel of rebellion to bear another child, one destined for destruction. And in secret, two archangels violate sacred edict and conceive a third soul — a child born of balance, to stand between salvation and ruin. This child is Hector. As Hector and Victoria grow closer in the formless void, sharing dreams, pain, and a haunting hum they vow never to forget, their bond deepens. But their birth into the physical world looms, and with it, the unraveling of everything they’ve come to understand. Three children. Three origins. One world that cannot hold them all.

Qin Shi Huang tore China apart to forge an empire and defied the heavens for eternal life, only to awaken two millennia later in the body of a puppet emperor, with his new empire on the verge of collapse. Now, armed with his ancient ambition and a terrifying new power, he will not just save his nation—he will finish the conquest he started and bring the entire world to its knees.

Long before crowns and kingdoms, three Primordials kept the world in fragile balance: Lysandra Vael, Spirit Queen of life and memory; Varethos, the silent Judge of void and law; and Jae, the youngest—creator of magic and soon‑to‑be First Demon King. When mortals twist his gift into endless war, Jae offers the unthinkable solution: orchestrate his own “defeat” and seal himself in a timeless cocoon, giving the realms a chance to heal. To protect the cosmic order, the Primordials agree—on one painful condition: Jae’s adopted daughter, Miku, must never learn the truth. But fate unravels the moment Jae lets three legendary heroes strike the fatal blow. While the world celebrates peace, Miku is left only with ash, grief, and questions no one will answer. Her sorrow hardens into purpose. Gathering the seven Ancient Demons, she forges the secret Obsidian Shroud and wages an unseen war against the empires that hailed her father’s fall—until the brutal rise of a new Demon King, Kraven, extinguishes her rebellion overnight. Shattered yet undeterred, Miku vanishes… only to re‑emerge centuries later as Mistress Mira, headmistress of Serenthia’s Arcanum Sanctum. Beneath the academy’s smiling façade, she builds a vast Soul‑Anchor array—quietly feeding power into the sleeping cocoon that holds Jae’s soul. Now, as ley‑lines tremble once more and the array nears completion, ancient prophecies stir and forgotten names resurface. Jae is destined to return—this time not as a solitary king, but alongside the daughter who refused to let his memory die. Yet the world that awaits him is anything but healed, and enemies old and new are ready to claim the throne he left behind. The era of harmony is ending. The First King is waking. And balance has a price.

She begins to see the vulnerable side of the man behind the mask. With every passing day she finds herself drawn towards him. But can she trust him? Or is he just a means to an end? The lines between loyalty, love and betrayal become increasingly blurred and she’s faced with impossible choices. Will she be able to maintain her cover and fulfill her mission? or will her emotions betray her objectivity? In a gripping tale of espionage, romance and deception, the young woman must walk a tightrope between duty and her heart.
