As Selene tries to build her independent empire and starts dating other men, Cassian completely unravels. He stalks her through their elite social circles, unable to handle anyone else touching what he still thinks belongs to him. The lines between hatred and obsession are completely gone.

Over the past five years, I had awakened a wealthy businessman who had been declared brain-dead after a car accident.

Even terminally ill patients whose families had already been told to prepare for the worst were able to walk out of the hospital on their own after receiving my treatment.

They carried in a man covered in blood and dropped to their knees before me. “Please save our boss! We'll pay whatever it takes!” I looked at the man they carried inside and spoke coldly. “Take him out. I wouldn't save this man even if it killed me.”
