Secrets of the Void

She was never meant to wake up. Ellie was created in secret. A perfect clone of a powerful woman long dead.

For years, she knew only sterile walls, the touch of cold instruments, and the voice of the scientist who molded her into something useful. Something obedient. Until the day she opened her eyes and met a god.

Proteus. The sea's first son. The god who once ruled the depths, and who has spent centuries imprisoned by those who feared him.

Now freed, his vengeance is as vast as the ocean itself. He will reclaim his dominion. Drown the world that betrayed him.

And he will use Ellie, the clone who carries the face of his enemy, to do it. But the more time he spends with her, the more his carefully built hatred begins to unravel. Because Ellie isn't just a tool.

She's clever, defiant, heartbreakingly alive. And Proteus-ancient, merciless Proteus-finds himself wanting her more than he wants his revenge. She was made to serve.

He was born to destroy. Together, they could end humanity. Or save it.
