Rise of the Paragon Villain

In a world of forgotten memories and lethal secrets, Anastasia Moreau fights for survival. Awakening in a sinister laboratory with no recollection of her past, she escapes, only to be taken under the wing of a notorious killer who molds her into an assassin. Her goal: ascend the ranks within the elusive assassin organization known as RACQI, all while unraveling the secrets of her own lost memories. But Anastasia carries a crippling burden—PTSD that renders her incapable of taking a life. Her flaw threatens to shatter her dream until a final chance arises: an assignment to eliminate Valerian Vincenzo Vanguardia, the prime minister's formidable son. A task laced with complications, for Valerian possesses otherworldly abilities and a personality that clashes with everything Anastasia stands for. When a series of gruesome murders entangles them with Ambrose Riese, the youngest scion of the powerful Spes Lawfirm, the trio forms an uneasy alliance to confront a rising tide of chaos. In their struggle against deadly foes, including bloodthirsty zombies and alien creatures, Ana and Valerian's animosity transforms into an unexpected connection, sparking a slow-burning attraction that defies the odds. As darkness threatens to consume them, they must navigate treacherous paths, facing inner demons and forging unlikely alliances. The lines blur between heroes and villains as they battle not only external threats but also the shadows within themselves. Ana's journey becomes a thrilling odyssey of redemption, truth, and justice, leading her to question whether she can triumph over her past or risk becoming something far more sinister. The fate of a fractured world hangs in the balance, and Ana's choices will determine whether she rises as a hero or succumbs to the darkness. Prepare for a saga where alliances shift, allegiances blur, and the past casts a haunting shadow on an uncertain future.

Ana

Ana watched as Ambrose stomped his way out the door, slamming it as he left. From the window near the door, she could see Ambrose standing in a "T" pose outside.

"Straighten those arms, Riese!" Mr. Cane ordered when he noticed Ambrose slightly lowering his arms.

"Poor Ambrose," Ana muttered.

Mr. Cane continued his lecture and Ana could feel her eyes close subconsciously. She willed herself to stay awake with all her strength. Ana blinked her eyes furiously in an attempt to lose her sleepiness but to no avail. Mr. Cnae's voice could be a cure for insomnia–anyone would fall asleep.
