The twelve gods of the Zodiac don't rule with lightning. They rule with paperwork. Jeremy Pan made one accounting mistake. Twenty-four hours later, his employer ordered his execution. The problem? His employer is one of the immortal Houses that have secretly controlled humanity for thousands of years. Jeremy has no divine bloodline. No legendary weapon. No overwhelming power. He has only contracts, compliance law, financial audits... and a terrifying talent for turning the system against itself. Every victory earns him another death sentence. Every ally is someone the Zodiac discarded. Every secret leads one step closer to the forbidden Thirteenth House. He doesn't need to kill the gods. He only needs to make them destroy each other
