Will Stark is a self-made multi-billionaire, happily married and a proud father. He arrives home to find his house destroyed and his family murdered, and is himself rescued from certain death by a mysterious trio.
His rescuers are part of a splinter faction of a centuries-old secret society that has developed incredible technological advances, and unlocked the method to release humanity's innate potential, and skills long thought the realm of magic. Will was mistakenly believed to be a key dissident and fugitive, on the run from the primary group, known as the Aliomenti.
Society believes him dead, and Will elects to work from the shadows to learn the secrets of the Aliomenti, secrets that can help him seek his own form of vengeance.
Or, perhaps, become the man they'd sought all along.

sliding into a cold swimming pool, until his bare feet touched the white floor of the room. With extreme caution, Will let his full weight come down on the leg. Nothing. He hopped up and down, and then took a few steps. Nothing. Every injury was completely healed. No scars, no blisters, no pain. He couldn’t remember ever feeling better than he felt right now. Will sat back down on the small table he’d been using for a bed and lowered his head, feeling guilty. He was alive, his injuries

When she felt threatened, however, she reacted with violence. If she’d taken the time to assess the situation she would have realized that you are no threat to either of us, and that the attack was unnecessary.” He patted the dog, and Smokey trotted back toward The Assassin.

She will not suffer.” “You… you can’t do that!” Mark shouted, surprising himself. “I’ll stop you!” The killer snorted. Mark charged him. He once again found himself on the ground, face-down, with his arms pinned behind his back. “Listen closely,” the killer hissed. “I am tolerating your presence solely because you will yet be of service to me.
