The Empyrium controls everything-its data, its people, even its ghosts.
Tiberius Braxton is the ruler's son who officially does not exist.
Kept off every record, he enforces Dominion from the shadows-ensuring the system remains stable, silent, and unquestioned.
Alysa Carmichael has spent years fighting that system from the outside.
As a rebel operative with a past she can't afford to expose, she knows exactly what men like Tiberius are capable of.
Until a purge protocol forces them into the same mission.
Now they must navigate Dominion's ruthless tier system-where a wrong look means erasure, truth is weaponized, and survival requires a mask neither of them wants to wear.
Because the system they were born into is beginning to fracture.
And if they want freedom, they won't just have to escape the Empire.
They'll have to dismantle the version of it living inside themselves.
Together.
Perfect for readers who love character-driven dystopian sci-fi, morally gray alliances, and slow-burn tension built on trust that could shatter everything.
