But to the children of Red-Hill, it's just home. And every night, when the rifts groan, they lie awake in their beds.... waiting for their next assignment.

Dr. Zayne Li has a secret. Three years ago, the renowned cardiologist stumbled upon an impossible ice cave in the forest outside Linkon City. What he found inside changed everything—a portal to a nightmare realm where monsters hunt humans, where the laws of reality bend and break, and where survival means becoming something you never thought you could be. He barely escaped. And he's spent every day since sealing that cave, ensuring no one else suffers the same fate. Until Hunter Nana Wang follows him one night.Curious, reckless, and too brave for her own good, Nana is Linkon City's strongest hunter—trained to fight Wanderers, not the impossible creatures that exist beyond dimensions. When a surprise attack shatters Zayne's carefully maintained seal, both of them are pulled through the portal into Avalon: a broken city suspended between life and death, where demons, vampires, and hybrids hunt the few remaining humans. Separated by the portal's cruel logic, Nana wakes in an abandoned classroom with no weapons, no backup, and no idea how to survive. Within minutes, she's being hunted. Within hours, she's convinced she's going to die. Then she meets Mina—a survivor who's been trapped in Avalon for a month, who teaches Nana that the only way to escape this nightmare is to become a nightmare yourself.As Nana learns to fight creatures that shouldn't exist, as she loses people she comes to love, as she grows harder and stronger and more desperate, one thought keeps her going: Find Zayne. Escape together. Survive. But Zayne is fighting his own battle, alone in a realm where he's already spent three years learning to be a killer. And when they finally reunite, they discover that Avalon has one rule that changes everything: The only way out appears once a year, during the blood moon cycle, when thousands of vampires wake and hunt. And anyone bitten transforms instantly. One portal. One chance. Two people who love each other enough to sacrifice everything. In Avalon, love isn't just about living together. Sometimes it's about choosing who gets to live at all.

In a world where power shields the wicked and justice seems untouchable, a mysterious string of global murders rattles the elite. Interpol is baffled—no fingerprints, no DNA, no trace of the killer—except for one strange clue left at every crime scene: a glowing firefly. Eyewitnesses whisper of shadowy beings—demons, creatures from folklore, or urban legends—emerging from the darkness to deliver swift judgment. But their victims aren’t innocent. They’re the untouchable: powerful criminals, fraudsters, and corrupt titans hiding behind wealth and influence. As myth bleeds into science and fantasy crosses paths with harsh reality, the firefly becomes more than just a witness—it becomes a symbol, a code, and perhaps... a weapon of something ancient. Interpol races against time, not just to solve the mystery, but to uncover a truth that challenges everything the modern world believes: What if justice doesn’t wear a badge—what if it wears wings and glows?

The story follows a cursed female werewolf, born under an ancient and forbidden lunar phenomenon—one so rare that her birth requires the death of her mother. According to werewolf lore, females of her kind are not meant to form bonds, families, or unions. Any male werewolf who mates with her dies during the act, his life force consumed by the curse that sustains her existence. Despised by her father and feared by her pack, she grows up in forced isolation—no affection, no friendships, no future. Branded a living omen, she becomes a symbol of loss rather than life. Unable to bear the weight of her existence, she abandons her hometown, severing all ties to the past, and relocates to a distant city where she lives as a ghost among humans—quiet, detached, and deliberately unremarkable. There, fate intervenes.

Rayu Illdane survives the destruction of his village by accident, not heroism. Survival is not framed as a triumph—only as the first condition imposed on him by a world that does not pause for grief. Displaced alongside his friend Vizo, Rayu is drawn into the orbit of the Aceretan Empire, a continental power whose strength lies not in cruelty, but in efficiency. The Empire does not punish survivors. It processes them. Measures them. Assigns them value. In the capital, Rayu learns that visibility is a liability. Strength invites attention, and attention carries obligation. Through military enlistment and training, Rayu and Vizo are shaped into functional components of a system that rewards endurance while erasing choice. Authority is distant, accountability selective, and mercy procedural. Their first true deployment sends them north to Frostmarch—a frozen frontier long neglected by imperial command. There, Rayu encounters soldiers who were ordered to hold without support, communities abandoned to attrition, and a rebellion born not from ideology but from being forgotten. As climate, exhaustion, and violence converge, Rayu begins to understand that rebellions are not anomalies. They are consequences. Victory in Frostmarch brings no relief. Losses are reclassified. Names disappear from records. Responsibility is redistributed without rest. Rayu and Vizo are not granted leave—they are given new clearance. In the aftermath, quiet anomalies emerge. Adjustments made before reports are filed. Movements accounted for before they occur. A presence that does not confront, only corrects. The Empire does not need to watch openly. It already knows where pressure bends. Book I concludes with an order that does not ask: Rayu and Vizo are to infiltrate Nalanda, a neutral sanctuary beyond imperial reach. Their task is not conquest, but integration. To gain trust. To become disciples. To learn what the Empire cannot seize by force. Survival was never the end goal. It was the qualification.
