Fake Death

Ryan Carter died winning a noodle contest, only to be resurrected as a fake hero. Now, he must survive a kingdom that treats his every clumsy blunder as legendary martial arts, all while trying to uncover why he was brought back in the first place.

I left everything behind, when my father had wanted me to become the head of the dynasty. Every man would have wanted such power given to him to control the world. But, I wanted something different, something peaceful. Away from all noise, distractions and the place where I called home. I didn't just leave, I left with the woman after my heart. I really loved her and would marry her. None of this wealth, power, control matters to me, the reason I kept my family profile hidden from her. But, what happens when there was a zombie apocalypse and I had returned home, to take her with me to another city, but then…I caught her cheating, not with anyone else, if the case should be, but with my boss? That's the height of it. Even when I tried to confront her, she was not remorseful over her shameful actions, and my boss? He simply doesn't care about me, he threatened to fire me if I dared him. They mocked, ridiculed me and even left me with a zombie to kill me off. But, they don't know who I am!

Carter Van Alen was dumped in the rain for being poor. His best friend stole his designs. His rival stole his future. His ex married the man who ruined him. They thought he was finished. They were wrong. Carter wasn't broke. He was the sole heir to the empire that owned the city. He crashed their wedding. Bought the church. Owned the guests. And began erasing everyone who ever laughed at him. But Julian Pane had been waiting. He knew who Carter was before Carter made his move. And a man with nothing left to lose is the most dangerous thing in any room. The Council of Five had the city in a chokehold for forty years. They didn't survive Carter's patience. Now Kingston belongs to him. He doesn't forgive. He doesn't negotiate. He builds...and then he buries. And when the dust settles, only two people are left standing at the top. The King. And the woman who made him one.

When the media exposed that I was the true heir, they dragged me back from the countryside—not to welcome me, but to shut me up. My mother called me an embarrassment. My three sisters begged my father to keep the fake brother instead. My ex-girlfriend? She laughed and said, "He's everything you'll never be." They don't know that the real heir died years ago. I'm just a transmigrator who woke up in his body and I've already read the novel about this family's downfall. I know the fake brother is planning to bankrupt my father. I know the lottery jackpot he's about to win. I even know the exact moment my mother will kneel and cry for my forgiveness. They want a scapegoat? Fine. I'll play the fool. But by the time they realize I'm not the victim, I'll own everything they love.

Aren Greyson had spent three years as Jasmine Richards’ useless, wheelchair-bound husband, enduring her family’s contempt while secretly helping her company succeed. When Jasmine fell for wealthy businessman Nikolai Wynn, she decided to divorce Aren, believing he had nothing to offer her. She had no idea that her “useless” husband was actually the hidden heir to the powerful Greyson Empire. After the divorce, Aren stopped hiding his identity and began building his own empire, while Jasmine slowly realized the man she discarded was the one she should never have lost.

Richard was the laughingstock of the Chryslers family. He constantly suffers maltreatment at the hands of his wife's family for years.

They mocked Ethan Vale as a nobody. His fiancee left him for a richer man, and California’s elite treated him like he was worthless. Then Isabella Laurent, a billionaire heiress trapped in an arranged marriage, asks him to fake an engagement. She thinks Ethan has nothing. She has no idea who she just agreed to marry.

When Alex discovers he is the hidden heir to a powerful mafia empire, his life is turned upside down. Forced to embrace his destiny as “The Tiger,” he must rise from nothing to reclaim the empire his father died protecting—while enemies close in, betrayal lurks within, and a dangerous fake marriage threatens to expose everything.

Five years ago, I was the "worthless" foster son who had taken the fall for a crime I never committed. I went to prison for my brother's future, thinking that my family would be there to care for my wife. I was wrong. While I rotted away in Blackgate Prison, my inheritance had been stolen: they had wiped off my existence and treated my wife as a slave. They thought I would die in there. But the fate had different plans. In the darkest cell, I met with a mysterious master. I did not just survive; I was reborn. I learned the Nine Heavens Medical Art and activated the Sovereign Martial Body. I healed warlords and crippled assassins in a single touch. Now the prison gates are open. I am no longer the submissive orphan. I am a Dragon King. To my foster family celebrating my misery: Prepare your coffins. To all those billionaires trying to touch my wife: Prepare to lose your hands. I will save lives with my left hand and destroy my enemies with my right hand. The King is out, and debts must be repaid in blood.
