Neon Debt Protocol

Leia should be dead. Instead, she wakes inside a morgue pod with a neural Covenant Engine wired into her brain—and a debt large enough to own her life. Every promise fulfilled grants her impossible speed, heightened senses, and brutal power. Every broken promise erases a piece of her memory. When her younger brother is sold to an underground laboratory, Leia makes a deal with Kane, a ruthless black-market escort who knows far more about her than he admits. Hunted through a neon wasteland by the city’s surveillance army, she uncovers a devastating truth: she is the missing heir to the system controlling the city—and the one who signed her brother’s transfer. To save him, Leia must reclaim the past before the Covenant Engine erases her completely.
