But after decades of studying, testing, and sacrificing everything he holds dear, he finally creates a serum that transforms him into the strongest version of himself—a man free from the chains of his past.

Yet freedom comes at a cost, and as Kirk steps back into a world he’s long been forced to avoid, he realizes he has much to learn about his newfound abilities and the consequences they bring. Reuniting with Mallory, his childhood friend and constant light, Kirk is drawn into her fight against a ruthless gang tearing the city apart. His transformation turns him from a man on the fringes to a protector, willing to risk everything to keep her safe.

But in the shadows, an enemy lurks, one who has followed Kirk’s every move and knows his past intimately. As Kirk dives deeper into the city’s criminal underworld and uncovers secrets about his own origins, he must face a sinister force that may be tied to his very creation.

In a story woven with action, mystery, and heart, Kirk’s journey unfolds as he fights to protect the woman he’s always cared for—and to uncover the hidden truths about his past. For Kirk, it’s not just about survival anymore—it’s about finding out who he was truly meant to be.
