Rong Xinghe with an indescribably painful past: from being thrown down a running train by her own family at 13 to getting stabbed in the heart by the one she believed to be her one true love. She went through it all, building her foundation over the ashes of that very past, by the dint of her unconditionally supportive, 6 sworn brothers. Xi Yuan, an astoundingly successful businessman with an equally horrid childhood. Haunted by Acute Autism since birth, the man had to watch the two people he dearly cherished get killed right in front of his eyes at the age of 15. Both, troubled by their darkness, brought together by fate at a party. While it was love at first sight for him, her fears were too deep for her to realize the unexplainable emotions stirring her heart to just his presence. One, the Queen of Bullets; another, the King of Business. This is a tale of those two melting into each other...

In a world where Alphas are kings and Omegas are the lowest of the low, the breeders and the slaves, Krystal Mirovich, the Alpha's daughter, found herself shifting into the latter. The world she knew crumbled overnight. An Alpha's daughter shifting into an Omega? What an embarrassment. Her friends grew distant. Her boyfriend left her for her sister who was an Alpha. And her father? He wanted to sell her off to become a breeder for some Alpha. And Krystal would never allow that. She was ready to do anything to escape this fate, so she hatched a plan. Was it successful? Probably. She planned to enter an agreement with a desperate Alpha whose pack couldn’t afford healthcare. But he actually tried to cheat her instead by forcefully making her his. Mustering all her strength, she managed to escape, but she ended up in the room of another Alpha. And this wasn’t just any random Alpha, but the man who ruled over all the packs in the northern territories. His cruel reputation had spread far and wide, and she expected to be chased out and looked down on for being an Omega. But no one ever told her he would be this… accommodating? “Please… marry me.” My voice quivered with desperation, my eyes fixed on the man's broad back. At this point, I didn’t know what else to do. But I knew the fate awaiting me if I failed to escape was far more dreadful than this. “Sure.” “S–sure?” He agreed, just like that?!

In the heart of the chaos stands Mike, a brilliant CIA analyst who sees patterns no one else can.

As the Arctic ice caps crumble under catastrophic global warming, the ancient "Pandora Virus" — buried for millennia — unleashes hell on Earth. Chen Mo, a history student in a drowsy lecture hall, watches civilization collapse into blood-soaked chaos: the infected rise as ravenous horrors, cities become graveyards, and humanity’s darkest instincts erupt in the ruins. Armed with a fire axe, Chen Mo battles through his zombified campus with medical prodigy Lin Wei, campus beauty Su Qing, and other survivors. Betrayal and sacrifice shatter their fragile sanctuary, forcing Chen Mo on a desperate quest to find his family. In a warlord-controlled bunker, he discovers his parents died protecting the weak in a mutant-infested quarantine zone. Inheriting their resolve, Chen Mo transforms from survivor to guardian, forging the bunker into a beacon of hope called "New Haven." But its light attracts the genocidal cult "The Purifiers," igniting holy war. To reach humanity’s last stronghold — the subterranean fortress "Kunlun Base" — Chen Mo leads an elite squad across the wasteland. Through sand-choked ruins, slaver pits, and the Purifiers’ mobile fortresses, they recruit allies: a survivalist hunter, a mechanic duo, and "Shadow," a wanderer marked by secrets. Each victory comes at a cost. Within Kunlun’s ordered utopia, Chen Mo uncovers deadlier threats: factional power struggles, unethical virus-weapon experiments, and the cult’s "Prophet" who commands the infected. When intel reveals Pandora’s origin lies in an Arctic ice vault, Chen Mo launches a suicidal expedition. In the frozen lab ruins, he confronts the Prophet — a virus-human hybrid — and sacrifices comrades to destroy the hive. The "Primordial Strain" he retrieves could be humanity’s cure... or ultimate doom. As Kunlun’s leadership fractures and New Haven simmers with discord, a new power emerges from the West: the technocratic dystopia "Eden." The long night endures. Every echo of human survival etches a new epoch in the darkness.
