"Asshole, you're hurting me, be gentler…" "Heh, don't you like it rough?" ... Most fatally, she was wearing only a thin spaghetti-strap nightgown, revealing large swathes of lovely scenery with her damp hair draped to one side, holding a feather duster in her hand… On the bed was a man with a hood on his head, his hands and feet bound, much like a slave.

Lu Wu, an aimless video game developer, had been feeling perturbed ever since he found out he was the direct descendant of a king from the underworld. Other than the title, His Excellency, his ancestor hadn't passed down anything else to him. On top of that, all of his ancestor’s subordinates had rebelled against him and completely usurped his inherited territory. Under the circumstances, Lu Wu built a battle game server with the help of his new mysterious friend and transported gamers from the real world straight to the underworld using virtual reality. They then created the main quest, the character classes, the Instance Dungeon, the storyline, and the non-player characters for the game. Relying solely on these video gamers’ strengths, Lu Wu began his expedition to reclaim his rightful inheritance. What could possibly go wrong?

In a twisted version of the Old West, where Native American fables come to life, the land is teeming with blight and cessation. Skinwalkers, Bakwas, Urayuli, and even the dreaded Wendigo roam freely, constantly terrorizing humanity. In this unforgiving landscape, survival becomes the supreme dream, luxury an impossibility. But hope lies in Ether, an eccentric substance that defies reason, and Sigils, granting individuals extraordinary abilities. So, as men and women from the burgeoning East venture into the treacherous West, they must navigate the nightmares that lurk within the wilderness and the horrors from above, below, and within. Survival becomes a battle for the mind, body, and soul. Each step must be taken lightly, lest they fall prey to a grim fate—a forgotten corpse, a demon's feast, or the plaything of ancient and incomprehensible beings. Fools tread where angels fear to gaze, yet not all fools let themselves wilt. Some are simply too stubborn to break.

Jeg udstødte en bitter latter. "Det er ironisk, er det ikke? I har brugt årevis på at gøre mit liv til et helvede på jord, og nu ser I på mig, som om jeg er selve den luft, I indånder." Lennox' ansigt faldt sammen. "Olivia, det var ikke meningen, det skulle være sådan her—" Jeg afbrød ham med øjne, der blussede af vrede. "Jo, det var det. I ville have mig knækket. I ville have mig til at lide. Og det gjorde jeg." Jeg holdt en pause, og min stemme skælvede. "Men ikke længere." Louis, som havde været tavs, sagde sagte: "Olivia, vi—" Jeg rystede på hovedet og tog et skridt tilbage for at skabe afstand mellem os. "Nej. Uanset hvad I tror, I føler, er det ligegyldigt. Det er for sent. I havde et valg. Og hver eneste gang valgte I hende. Igen og igen valgte I Anita." Levi rystede på hovedet. "Vi tog fejl." Jeg mødte deres blikke. "Ja, det gjorde I. Og nu må I leve med det." Med de ord vendte jeg mig om og nægtede at lade dem se de tårer, der brændte i mine øjne. •••••••• Olivia Parker var engang den elskede datter af en respekteret Gamma—indtil forræderi knuste hendes verden. Stemplet som datter af en forræder blev hun frataget sin titel, sin værdighed og det liv, hun havde kendt, og tvunget til at tjene som en Omega blandt dem, der engang respekterede hende. Men Skæbnen var ikke færdig med hende endnu. På aftenen for parringsceremonien opdagede Olivia den grusomste af alle skæbnens luner—hun var ikke bestemt for kun én mage, men tre. Og ikke bare hvilke som helst tre. Alfa Lennox, Alfa Louis og Alfa Levi—de hensynsløse trillinge-Alfaer, som havde brugt årevis på at pine hende. Bundet til et ægteskab, de aldrig havde ønsket, gjorde trillingerne hendes liv til et vågent mareridt. De fremviste deres elskerinde, Anita, foran hende og sørgede for, at hun aldrig glemte sin plads, aldrig glemte, at de aldrig ville have hende. Men Skæbnen har sin egen måde at spille spillet på. Som hemmeligheder afsløres og begravede sandheder kommer frem i lyset, begynder trillingerne at se Olivia for den, hun virkelig er—ikke bare en Luna af titel, men den kvinde, de aldrig indså, de havde brug for. Men nu er hun færdig med at vente.

Cierra Boyle blev brat sendt til udlandet af sin mand på deres bryllupsnat. Det var en gådefuld vending, som fik mange til at sætte spørgsmålstegn ved omstændighederne. Tre lange år gik, før Cierra endelig vendte tilbage, kun for at blive mødt af en barsk virkelighed – hun blev jaget væk med en skilsmisseaftale og et separationsbrev. Nysgerrighed og skadefryd fyldte luften, mens folk spændt ventede på Cierras fald. De forudsagde, at hun ville bukke under for strabadserne i et liv i fattigdom og til sidst komme krybende tilbage og skamløst tigge Boyle-familien om husly. De spekulerede yderligere i, at hun ville plage Draven Trevino ubønhørligt. Skæbnen havde dog en anden plan i vente. En overraskende udvikling fandt sted, da nogen så Draven stå foran sin ekskone med et ynkeligt udtryk i øjnene. "Cierra," ytrede han, med en stemme fyldt af længsel, "hvornår skal vi giftes igen?"
