​"The debt was paid in blood two centuries ago. Now, the interest is due." ​Tobias “Theo” Eaton is a ghost in a bespoke suit. Once a Prince of the United Kingdom and third in line to the throne, he abandoned his birthright at eighteen to become "Four"—an elite black-ops operative for the SAS. For twelve years, he has moved through a world of shades, processing grief as data and human connection as a tactical liability. He is a man waiting to die, haunted by a 200-year-old blood feud between the House of Windsor and a shadowy cabal known as The Order of Reckoning. ​Teresa Agnes is a woman fueled by a different kind of haunting. The billionaire CEO of a global investment empire, she has spent the year following her father’s suspicious death transforming herself into a weapon of investigation. When her path collides with Theo’s in the rain-slicked alleys of Singapore, she doesn't see a Prince or a killer—she sees a man hiding behind a wall of clinical detachment. ​Forced into a wary partnership, they embark on a global chase from the neon corridors of Tokyo to the high-stakes auction houses of Paris and the corporate towers of Manhattan. As they peel back the layers of a conspiracy that threatens to topple the British Monarchy, Theo’s emotional armor begins to crack. For the first time in a decade, he isn't just surviving; he is beginning to live. ​But in the world of the Reckoning, hope is the most dangerous variable of all. ​As The Windsor Protocol—a coordinated strike to eliminate the royal bloodline—nears its execution on Valentine's Day, the duo realizes the enemy isn't just an organization, but a historical grievance that cannot be reasoned with. Lord Edmund Ashford, a father figure turned Judas, demands a final price for the sins of the past: a life for a life. ​In a climactic confrontation at the Tower of London, the cold mathematics of Theo’s world are upended. Faced with an impossible choice between duty and devotion, it is Teresa who makes the ultimate executive decision. She chooses a sacrifice that saves a city and a dynasty, but leaves Theo in a world more silent and grey than the one he started in. ​The Reckoning is a melancholic spy thriller about the heavy cost of legacy and the tragedy of a love found just in time to be lost. It is a story of dusk, dawn, and the long, cold shadows in between.

One day, a strange hand suddenly appeared inside Chi Wan’s interdimensional space. Its owner claimed to be living in the apocalypse—starving, desperate—and begged to trade anything he had for food. Chi Wan stared at the pile of Imperial Green jade, oversized diamonds, and dozens of kilograms of gold bars he offered… and fell into deep thought. …Wasn’t this a little too profitable? From then on, her connection to the apocalypse only grew stronger. The mysterious man—who turned out to be a powerful figure—used his Wood Ability to help her revive rare orchids, cultivate endangered plants, and even harvest zombie crystal cores for the country. As for Chi Wan? She only had three responsibilities: feed him, feed him, and keep feeding him. Somehow, without realizing it, a group of extraordinary men began to gather around her: A genius research scientist. An aloof, abstinent CEO. A cold and ruthless Soldier King… In front of Chi Wan, they were gentle, attentive, and impeccably polite—each trying to outshine the others. Behind her back? They were one step away from tearing each other apart. Meanwhile, on the other side of the spatial link… The so-called King of the Apocalypse clenched his teeth in silence as he listened to these men compete for her attention. As for Chi Wan? “I’m busy getting rich and supporting my family,” she said calmly. “A battle royale of suitors?

Chi Wan glanced at him, then at the newly connected wasteland world inside her space… …and once again fell into deep thought.
