    About this ebook

    Your family lies.
    Your enemies tell the truth.
    Do you remain loyal or rebel?

    In a dystopian future, the Dominion tyranny rules over an oppressed civilization. But it also protects them from the dehumanizing DRK virus...or so they claim.

    Vale Olander, a telepathic Dominion heir, knows he isn’t his father’s favorite son. Living in the shadow of his charismatic twin brother, Vale must find a place in his father’s empire.

    But when Vale encounters a team of rebels, he must make a choice:
    Will he remain loyal and serve his brother, or will he fight for those his family has oppressed?
