THE ALGORITHM OF SURVIVAL: Avenger Jasper
From a Billionaire Elite to a strategic survivor and Leader. Jasper for once thought it was paranoia he told himself but after giving it a second thought, He told himself it's preparation. The sky didn't warn them, it had only burned and within a single moment, the world collapsed. Jasper was supposed to come home back to his wife, Stacy and to his brother, Anthony to see everything normal but normal doesn't exist anymore not after the fire that fell from the sky or after the cities had turned into graveyards or signals died... only silence answered instead. Alone in the ruins, Jasper learns quickly that survival isn't about strength but about adaptation and the world he's walking through? It doesn't forgive mistakes. As days turn into a brutal fight for existence. Water became scarce and rare, pure gold, food too was gone and trust? dead and the living? Sometimes they're worse than whatever ended the world. But just when hope becomes a memory... will Jasper find them alive or dead?
Now surrounded by a group that doesn't trust him...He is also hunted by enemies they don't fully understand...and weakened by a hunger that's slowly tearing them apart Jasper faces a new reality: Surviving alone was simple and surviving together? That's where people turn on each other. Because in this new world, every decision costs something and the deeper they go the clearer one terrifying truth becomes that the collapse wasn't the end. It was the beginning of something far worse. And just when Jasper thinks that he understands the rules of survival a night will prove him wrong because something is always watching, tracking and waiting. Now the big question isn't who survives only but who's willing to stay human when it's over. It's a story of how an ordinary man became a weapon of war as he sacrificed his humanity to save the ones he protects. Once you start reading, you won't stop.

Chapter 1
The skyline stretched endlessly, glass towers piercing the sky like declarations of power. At the very top of one of them forty-seven floors above the restless streets stood a man who owned more than most nations could measure. Avenger Jasper, billionaire, philanthropist and an architect of influence but titles didn't define him, control did. He sat in the living room with Andrew discussing about the house opening when Stacy stepped in.
"Darling you look beautiful" he said
"Thank you my lord" "Everyone is excited about the house opening" Stacy said.
"We will be heading out soon". Jasper said
"Sir, the convoy is ready."
Jasper didn't turn immediately. He stood before the floor-to-ceiling glass, hands resting lightly behind his back, with eyes scanning the city below, cars moved like streams of light. People look tiny, insignificant from this height, hurried through their lives.
Every one of them believed tomorrow would come.
Jasper exhaled slowly.
"Delay it by five minutes," he said calmly.
The assistant hesitated.
"Sir, the governor..."
"Will wait."
There was no arrogance in his tone only certainty, the assistant nodded quickly and stepped out but Jasper remained still because unlike most men in this city he didn't just see what was, he saw what could be. Minutes later, the convoy cut through traffic like authority itself with black SUVs and flashing escorts which were untouchable but Jasper didn't look at the road. He was reviewing numbers on a tablet donations, distributions, logistics.
"Sir," his driver said, "we'll be arriving at the outreach center in two minutes."
Jasper nodded once.
"Are the supplies confirmed?"
"Yes, sir. Food packages, medical kits, clean water systems, all accounted for."
Jasper's eyes remained on the screen.
"Double-check the water filtration units," he said. "Last batch had a defect."
"Already replaced, sir."
"Good."
Efficiency mattered.
Lives depended on it.
The convoy slowed as it entered a different part of the city and the shine disappeared. Glass towers gave way to cracked walls and luxury faded into survival. Children stood barefoot along the roadside, watching the vehicles pass with wide eyes not in awe, but in quiet curiosity. They didn't know who Jasper was but they knew what help looked like. The SUVs came to a stop, doors flung open and security moved first and then Jasper stepped out.
"Mr. Jasper!"
The center coordinator rushed forward, slightly out of breath.
"We weren't expecting you this early."
Jasper gave a small nod.
"Plans change."
His eyes were already scanning the area, people lined up, some were weak, some desperate and others were just tired.
"How many today?" he asked.
"About three hundred registered or maybe more walk-ins."
Jasper didn't react.
He simply said
"Then we prepare for more." Within minutes, the operation moved like a system. Boxes were opened and supplies were evenly distributed as volunteers worked quickly and in the middle of it all Jasper helped with it all. He knelt beside a small boy, handing him a food pack. The boy stared at him for a moment.
"This food looks rich, thank you ?" the boy said happily. He smiled slightly.
"You welcome," he replied.
The boy smiled.
Jasper chuckled softly.
"That's my boy."
The boy took the pack.
"Why you here?"
Jasper met his eyes.
"Because you are."The boy didn't fully understand but he nodded anyway. Hours passed and the line shortened.m but Jasper didn't leave until the last person was served and every box was accounted for.
"Sir," his assistant approached carefully, "you have a meeting in forty minutes."
Jasper stood, brushing dust from his sleeve.
"Then we move."
He took one last look around, turned and then walked away. Back in the vehicle, the city shifted again from struggle, to structure and survival to strategy.
"Pull up the land acquisition reports," Jasper said.
The tablet changed instantly with maps, coordinates and ownership grids.
"Sector 14?" he asked.
"Still available," the assistant replied.
"Buy it."
"No negotiation?"
Jasper looked up briefly.
"Not on this one."
"Understood."
The acquisitions didn't make headlines, they weren't flashy and there was no media coverage either just a quiet land purchase with no public statements, the land was located in remote areas at strategic positions disconnected.
"Sir," the assistant added cautiously, "some analysts are questioning the pattern."
Jasper didn't look concerned.
"They're not seeing the full picture."
"Should we clarify?"
"No."
"Let them guess." He replied.
The next stop was different, completely different with a high-level conference room made of glass and steel with power dressed in tailored suits with voices measured and decisions worth billions.
"Jasper," one of the executives greeted, "cutting it close today."
Jasper took his seat calmly.
"Still early."
From him was a Light laughter but everyone knew that when he spoke, things moved
"Let's get to it," another said. "We're finalizing international expansion."
Jasper listened and analyzed everything and then...
"We're expanding too fast," he said.
The room was stilled.
"That's the point," someone countered.
"Not without stability," Jasper replied.
"We have stability."
Jasper shook his head slightly.
"No. We have momentum."
Silent stretched in for a moment and then he said those are not the same thing. He stood, walking to the screen and pulled up projections the data shifted and reframed everything.
"This," he said, pointing, "collapses under pressure."
"Where's the pressure coming from?" someone asked.
Jasper didn't answer immediately because the truth was harder to explain. Later that evening, alone again, Jasper sat in his private office. The city lights flickered outside and his tablet glowed in the dim light with headlines that scrolled quietly; there was a Sudden surge in underground construction, Private bunkers trending among elite buyers and Supply chain inconsistencies was reported globally. Jasper's eyes narrowed slightly. Something was off he thought. A pattern beneath the surface and a shift no one was openly acknowledging but he saw it because he always looked deeper, his phone buzzed and it was a message from Stacy.
"You're still working, aren't you?"
A faint smile touched his face.
"Always."
Her reply came quickly.
"One day, you'll run out of things to fix."
Jasper looked back at the screen, the headlines, the data and at the world pretending everything was fine.
"Not today," he typed.
He stood again, walking toward the glass, the city stretched endlessly below him, alive and beautiful but yet fragile. Most men saw success but Jasper saw systems, Most men saw stability and Jasper saw cracks and deep down without fully understanding why, He felt it that something was coming and when it did, everything this world had built...would fall.

For a thousand years, the city of Crescent Falls has survived beneath the shadow of an ancient savior. Each century, a man is chosen as an offering to Sariyah-the being said to have once driven demons from the world. When Bastion, the man Ember loves, is taken after daring to refuse her, Ember's grief turns into defiance, and she vows to bring him home no matter the cost.
Her search forces her into an uneasy alliance with Orion St. James, a dangerously charming immortal with a violent past and secrets tied to Sariyah herself. Bound together by a magic neither of them wants nor understands, Ember and Orion are drawn into a hidden war beneath the city-one involving cultists, monsters, and an ancient order known as the Watchers.

Because some thrones are not inherited.
They are taken.

Clara was drowning in student debt and barely making rent when she downloaded a fantasy mobile game to escape reality.
Inside the game, an exiled prince named Alex was freezing to death. Pitying him, she spent her last few dollars on microtransactions to fix his shelter and cure his poison.
But the game was far too real.
Every time she paid, the prince reacted. When she complained aloud about going broke, the in-game army suddenly halted, as if the prince had heard her voice.
Then, the terrifying real-world consequences hit.
Clara woke up to find her water glass and a box of Kleenex had vanished from her locked bedroom overnight.
She frantically searched the tiny apartment, her heart pounding in her chest.
She thought she was losing her mind. Had she thrown them out in her sleep? Was there a stalker hiding in her home?
How could physical objects just disappear into thin air behind a deadbolted door?
Until she looked at her nightstand.
Sitting exactly where her missing items used to be was a glowing, weightless crystal cup that defied all logic.
And on her laptop screen, the exiled prince was carefully holding her Kleenex box, offering a mountain of real gold on an altar.
She hadn't just downloaded a mobile game; she had opened a cross-dimensional trade route with a desperate future king.

On the eve of my wedding to Grant Sutton, the heir to a vast real estate empire, I discovered the devastating truth. I wasn't his great love; I was just a convenient replacement for his wild, untamable ex, Ivory.
He didn't love me. He loved that I was a polished, "suitable" version of the woman he truly wanted.
When I walked away, he didn't just let me go. He destroyed me. After I published an exposé on his company's shady dealings, he had me fired and systematically ruined my reputation, painting me as a vengeful liar in the press.
My own family turned on me, furious.
"Think about us, Avery! You owe us this!" my sister shrieked, caring only about the fortune I'd lost them.
I was left with nothing-no career, no family, no future. All because I was a placeholder in a love story that was never mine.
Three years later, I came back. Not as the broken fiancée, but as A. Trevino, the anonymous journalist whose latest investigation targeted an elite institution.
An institution with deep ties to the Sutton family. And this time, I wouldn't be the one who was destroyed.

Ten minutes. That was how close I was to handing my fiancé the keys to a three-hundred-million-dollar empire built on my code.
But when I walked into the office, his mistress was sitting in my chair, spinning the pen I bought him for our anniversary.
Caleb didn't even look up. He told me the investors wanted stability, not a pregnant woman. He called our unborn child a "liability" and ordered security to escort me out of the building I paid for.
I went home to pack, only to find a burner phone hidden in the closet. The texts were brutal. He called me an "incubator." He said once the deal was signed, he’d take the baby and dump the "nerd."
When he caught me with the phone, he didn't apologize. He dragged me by my hair and threw me into the soundproof panic room to keep me quiet until the deal closed.
"Caleb, please! I'm bleeding!"
I pounded on the steel door until my hands were raw. But he just locked it and went to eat pizza with his mistress.
Alone in the dark, on the freezing concrete, I felt the life inside me slip away. He hadn't just stolen my company; he had killed my child.
He thought I was broken. He thought I was just "the help." But he forgot one thing: I built the security system he was trying to sell.
Three days later, I rolled my wheelchair into his victory press conference, flanked by his biggest rival.
"Do you trust your new code, Caleb?"
"Because I wrote the backdoor. And I just opened it."
