Against this backdrop a new breed of posthuman children are growing into their powers.

I used to think my life would be common, boring even. My online guildies and my friends sure thought so. Yet everything I knew to be true in this world all changed drastically one fateful night... or should I say, it shifted. As it turns out, my father passed on more than his name to me. Something feral and mighty awoke within me, and I knew at once, I would never be the same again. Shortly after, I received an invitation that I didn't expect, a call to attend the mysterious Apex Academy. A world of shifters, human animal hybrids, suddenly opened up before me.

In a few short months he’s gone from a lowly dishwasher to an empowered soldier, gained new powers and friends, and survived the deadly Exlian aliens in the wilderness. And now, he’s a prisoner. Framed for murder and thrown into the deadly Tomb, forgotten and alone—no master, no team, no friends save the enigmatic cat Mime—Mark can only rely on himself … and the strange voice that whispers inside him.

If one superpowered alien beauty wasn’t enough, the arrival of a second throws Earth’s fate into a tailspin. She’s gorgeous, she’s powerful, and she’s the daughter of my ultimate enemy. Nemesis is coming, grudges will be settled, and all heroes must assemble. Before I can live the dream, I must confront the nightmare. This time, saving the world might mean saving the villain…

Born to a man of faith who let his vision for the future twist his mind, I learned to stay in the shadows, collecting the kids that ended up in this godforsaken place with me. They're the lost ones, and I'm their Wendy. The forgotten one, the dud, the failure. My only use now is as a future breeder to the cause. But they've taken enough, and I'll be damned if I let them take more. When the chance of escape is dangled before me like a carrot on a stick, I take it. I run with my lost ones toward a new life where the kids can be kids, and I can be free.

A horde of deadly super villains have escaped from Grayville’s maximum security super-prison, and it's up my team to hunt them down. And The Shadow Knight is helping out. Unfortunately, that means we can’t kill these villains when we catch them without shattering our tenuous alliance with the hero. But as always, I’m one step ahead, and I have some surprises in store for both Shadow Knight and the bad guys that will change the power dynamic in Grayville forever.

Lulled by the conclusion of the Primal Games, a few of the Prime leaders have taken to luxury or complacency. Others, however, have sharpened their claws and garnered strength. An attack will come from the shadows, one few expect, and in the aftermath, true chaos will unfold. Victor and his girls deepen ties with House Ghadeer, aiding it as a new Prime rises to lead them. Such a task might not prove difficult if it weren't for the enemy hidden in the grass.

Some kings rule in peace. Most must earn their power through strife and blood shed. Alliances secured and the enemy fully revealed at last, the end is at hand. Petra the matriarch stands at Victor's side, the women under her have spread out, each occupying more space, more authority, and more skill than ever before. And Victor, well, he finally has his generals, his soldiers, and his army ready. With the unexpected death of a close friend and one of Victor's strongest generals, he's reminded that Life is precious and so are the ones we love.

Life is primal and filled with deadly games. To survive, one might say, is to live and breath this conspiracy. Wildest thing is that I've been thriving lately. Rising to the position of Alpha Prime, conquering those that got in the way or didn't want a new force in their own lives, seeking instead to snuff out my flames before I learned to use my power. Before I insisted on claiming its entirety. Unfortunately for them, I wasn't easy to kill.
