Kai Asterian has spent the last two years hiding from the most powerful man in the world—his father.
Living under a false name in a quiet village on the edge of New Zealand, Kai has built a life of anonymity. To everyone around him, he's just another ordinary worker. But beneath the surface, he is anything but normal. In a world where everyone possesses extraordinary abilities, Kai holds a rare and dangerous power—the ability to cancel others.
And that makes him invaluable.
Born into the Asterian family—a dynasty that controls governments, media, and military forces—Kai was raised under the shadow of absolute power. His father, Leon Asterian, is a man feared across the world, wielding multiple abilities and an overwhelming presence that bends others to his will. His brothers, Richard and Jake, are just as formidable, each powerful in their own right.
But Kai didn't want power. He wanted freedom.
So he ran.
For two years, he managed to stay hidden… until the day his father felt him.
What follows is a relentless pursuit that shatters Kai's fragile peace, dragging him back into a world he tried to escape. As he is forced to confront his family, his past, and the truth behind his own power, Kai must decide what truly matters—freedom at any cost, or the bonds he tried so hard to break.
Because some ties…
Can't be erased.
