Three years ago, Dr. Adrian Cole was the golden boy of surgery until the powerful Monroe family framed him for malpractice, stripping him of his license and his wife, Lilian. Now, Adrian has returned as Chairman Cole, the cold, ruthless majority shareholder of a medical conglomerate, and his target is the Metropolitan Medical Group (MMG)—the very hospital that ruined him. Adrian’s meticulously planned destruction is swiftly turning into a global shadow war when he discovers the Monroes are merely a regional arm of a vast, illicit syndicate known as The Foundation. His revenge is no longer just personal; it's a desperate fight for survival against an international enemy. The one weakness in his airtight plan is Dr. Lily Monroe, Lilian’s brilliant younger sister, who secretly believes in Adrian’s innocence. As he installs her in a high-stakes position to gather intel, their volatile professional rivalry ignites an intense, forbidden attraction. When The Foundation issues its brutal ultimatum—forcing Adrian and Lily into a public, fake engagement to protect her reputation—the line between protector and adversary vanishes. Can Adrian dismantle a global conspiracy without losing the one woman who sees the man behind the monster, or will the price of his ultimate victory be the second life he fought so hard to reclaim?

Born from a forbidden union between a mortal man and a divine Phoenix heiress, the twins Arin and Lyra should never have existed. Their birth shattered ancient laws, awakened an old prophecy, and ignited fear across the realms. To preserve their so-called “pure bloodline,” the Phoenix Clan tore their family apart—imprisoning their father, dragging their mother back in chains, and abandoning the newborn twins in the filth of the mortal slums. But fate refused to let them die. Growing up hunted, starved, and betrayed, Arin becomes steel—cold, determined, and shaped by the cruelty he endures. Lyra becomes flame—gentle yet powerful, carrying a divine spark she can barely control. Together, they survive the darkness that was meant to erase them. Whispers of their lineage spread. Hidden masters begin to watch. Ancient clans—Dragons, Spirits, Angels, Wolves—feel a surge in the balance of power. And in the depths of the realms, enemies who once feared the prophecy awaken. As Arin vows to reclaim the life stolen from them and Lyra searches for the truth behind their parents’ disappearance, the twins face a universe determined to decide their destiny. But destiny bends for no one—except those strong enough to break it. Their journey is one of power, betrayal, forbidden love, brutal cultivation, and cosmic war. The twins who should not exist will rise to stand above all realms—or burn them to ash.

What if I told you that they were right? That Bigfoot, The Abominable Snowman, The Loch Ness monster and yes, even The Boogey man were actually real? What if I told you your parents were right when they told you that there are monsters and demons that lurked in the shadows at night? I have seen those monsters, through visions of prophecy and none have baffled me more than The Marauder and The Supremes. Beings even Science could not explain, creatures that held godlike power for so long and walked among us as both oppressors and at times, as saviors. This is one such prophecy I had that I had to put on paper. Call it a story if you wish (it would actually make me feel less crazy). But this is the story of Brendan Payne; the sixteen year old high school boy who went from a regular teenager to finding out that he was not human but instead was born into a race of beings that were believed to be the final and perfect stage of evolution. And by finding out his destiny, Brendan is torn between fighting for the humans who resented him and joining forces with the callous yet beautiful witch, Finch, who claims to have his best interests at heart. This...is The Legend Of Marauder
