In a future world where artificial intelligence and cyber technology have deeply intertwined, a young freshman, Liam, enters Ravenwick Theological Seminary, a prestigious institution dedicated to training future AI regulators and virtual crime investigators. However, what should have been the beginning of an academic journey quickly descends into a nightmare filled with conspiracy, betrayal, and hidden truths. A Shrouded Past and a Massacre Shrouded in Mystery On his very first night at the academy, Liam is ambushed—his memories targeted by advanced technology in an attempted extraction. To his horror, the attack bears an uncanny resemblance to the method used in the brutal murder of his adoptive parents and younger sister. The perpetrator? Sophia, the AI nanny who once cared for him with warmth and tenderness. Before being terminated, Sophia left behind a single clue: the name Ravenwick Theological Seminary—an undeniable link between Liam’s past and this enigmatic institution. Liam quickly realizes that his adoption was far from ordinary. Even his own memories may harbor a secret—one so dangerous that someone is willing to kill to obtain it. The Watchful Eyes of the Dark Forces and a Countdown to Death Within the academy, Liam crosses paths with Matthew, a former criminal investigator with a deceptively carefree demeanor but a razor-sharp intellect, and Professor Daniel, a highly esteemed scholar in AI ethics and virtual crime studies. Determined to uncover the truth, they turn to Infinity Haven—a virtual world capable of replaying memories and even granting digital immortality. Through this, they attempt to piece together the hidden fragments of Liam’s past. But their investigation does not go unnoticed. A powerful and elusive enemy lurking within the academy is watching, ready to strike. Liam soon finds himself hunted within Infinity Haven, ambushed by an unknown adversary capable of exploiting the system’s deepest vulnerabilities. Such a feat could only be accomplished by someone with immense power and influence. At the heart of it all lies Lumora Technologies, the multinational conglomerate that developed and controls Infinity Haven. But what true secrets lie behind its polished corporate façade? A Clash Between Reality and Illusion—A Destiny Rewritten As the investigation deepens, Liam and his allies find themselves embroiled in a conflict that extends far beyond academia—a battle against a corporate giant with far-reaching influence. Alongside Grace, Matthew, and others, Liam begins to forge an unbreakable bond, their skills and fates intertwined as they edge closer to the ultimate truth. Yet, this war is not confined to the virtual realm. In the real world, a grander conspiracy brews in the shadows. As Matthew and Grace dig deeper, they soon realize they are not just facing hackers and infiltrators—they are walking straight into a meticulously designed death trap. What truth lies buried within Liam’s memories? Who is orchestrating this intricate game from the shadows? What is the true purpose of Ravenwick Theological Seminary? And most importantly—is Liam truly just an ordinary student?

She pleaded but it fell on deaf ears. "Keep quiet. Don't make me handle you roughly." Shawn had a dead serious tone, but this only made Emily angry. "YOU WOULDN'T DARE! You have no right! Not after what you did and said." Suddenly, Emily was placed on her feet and slammed against a wall. Her heart rate picked up, fear enveloping her body as she thought she had finally made him flip. They were at a far part of the estate. Shawn's piercing eyes roved her face, watching her every reaction. Anger, shock, sadness and fear flashed across her eyes.  "Are you sure about that gorgeous? Do I have to remind you that you're my mate? You're mine Emily. No one— and I mean no one— can touch or kiss your skin." Emily was about to protest this but his lips slammed against hers roughly, cutting off her air supply for a moment. She inhaled sharply, her body immediately turning into jelly at the electrifying lip lock. -----------+ Thousands of years ago, a dreadful war befell the earth. A war between two different sides.
