"In a world that worships beauty and power, the invisible don’t even get the luxury of being hated—they’re ignored."
Elijah Cole is a ghost in his own life. Broke, bullied, and bearing a face society treats like a curse, he’s learned the hard way: value isn't earned—it's seen. His world is concrete and cruel, with no second chances, no miracles.
Until one morning, he wakes up in a different body. Tall. Symmetrical. Attractive. Powerful. Society suddenly sees him, hears him, wants him.
But there’s a catch. Elijah can switch between his old body and this “perfect” one at will—but only the beautiful version of him gets acknowledged by the world. The original Elijah? Still alive, still real—but socially invisible.
As Elijah begins to live a double life, he must confront a brutal truth:
Was it really him that was worthless—or just the way he looked?
And as the power of appearance begins to warp his mind, he's forced to decide:
Will he use this new life to destroy the system, or become the very monster it worships?
