Evan Locke is the Sloane family’s biggest disappointment—at least, that’s what they believe. A scorned live-in son-in-law with no pedigree, no power, and supposedly no ambition, he’s treated as little more than an inconvenient shadow in their mansion. Only Lena Sloane, his principled and razor-sharp wife, ever bothered to look past the surface… though even she has no idea who she married. Because Evan isn’t just brilliant—he’s the secret founder of Obsidian Capital, a stealth empire feared in boardrooms and whispered about in back alleys. From the dark edges of the financial world, he’s been pulling strings to keep Sloane Dynamics alive while the family doubts him at every turn. When Marcus Thorne, the elegant and ruthless CEO of Talon Consortium, moves to swallow Lena’s company, and the Black Harbor Syndicate sends their silent executioner Rhea Kade to clear obstacles, the Sloanes brace for collapse. But Obsidian has already awakened. With Archer Voss—his unseen field operator—and a network of shadow investments, Evan begins a quiet war. Every trade, every acquisition, every broken enemy brings him closer to exposing the truth… The world thinks he’s irrelevant. He’s about to show them what a ghost king looks like.

The Thornton family made one fatal mistake: they assumed the man scrubbing their floors was actually who he pretended to be. For five years, Adrian Kane played the role of the worthless son-in-law. He delivered food for minimum wage. He wore the same three shirts. He endured mockery, abuse, and betrayal from the family who thought they were doing him a favor by letting him exist in their world. They called him worthless. A beggar. A parasite feeding off their success. They had no idea he was the exiled heir to the Kane Empire—a shadow conglomerate worth over $800 billion that secretly owned everything they thought they'd built, including the very company bearing their name. When Adrian finally signs the divorce papers, the mask comes off. The beggar becomes the king. And the Thorntons are about to learn that the man they treated like a dog owns the leash they've been wearing all along. Revenge isn't just sweet—it's a billion-dollar empire crushing everything in its path. They humiliated him for five years. He'll destroy them in five days.

Dylan Pierce spent five years as a mocked househusband, loving his wife and daughter while being despised for his “worthlessness.” On their wedding anniversary, his ambitious wife Rachel demanded freedom, wealth, and a life without him. So Dylan gave her exactly what she wanted… a divorce. What Rachel never knew was that the man she humiliated was the true heir of the Sterling family, the most powerful financial empire in the city. When Dylan returns to his rightful place, power follows. Contracts are canceled. Fortunes collapse. And the woman who once trampled on his dignity realizes too late… She divorced the man who could have given her everything.

The city calls him “nobody.” On paper, he’s just a broke young man with nothing but scars and a bad attitude. But in the shadows, Caden Pierce is the Septamillionaire Heir—the ruthless King of the Underworld. His enemies fear him. The elite don’t even know he exists… yet. After ten years of brutal training, Caden’s ready to tear his enemies apart and claim everything that’s his. When the spoiled heiress Vivian Montgomery is thrown into his arms—literally—he gets a taste of power, privilege, and the poison of high society. She calls him a “nobody.” Her circle mocks him. They have no idea he owns the ground they walk on. “You think money makes you untouchable?” Caden smirks, stepping over his latest rival. “Sweetheart, I buy men like you for sport and toss them out with yesterday’s trash.” But when the old-money dynasties scheme to bury him, and gunmen storm the club with Vivian in their sights, Caden doesn’t blink. “Let’s get something straight,” he growls, shoving a pistol under the lead thug’s chin. “You came for a princess. You found the king.” Enemies want his head. Socialites want his wallet. And Vivian—she wants him gone. But Caden Pierce didn’t survive hell to bow to anyone. He’s got seven million reasons to settle old scores. And one savage promise: this city will remember his name. Buckle up. The king is back—and he’s done playing nice.

On the night Nicola lost everything, betrayal came wrapped in laughter and flashing cameras. The woman he loved chose a billionaire heir, breaking his heart without pity, ridiculed his poverty, and shattered his dignity without hesitation. He was beaten, disgraced, and thrown into the gutter while the city watched and laughed. But fate wasn’t finished with him yet. In a hospital bed, hovering between anger and despair, Nicola became the host of the Super Crazy Consortium System. A merciless system that rewarded action and punished hesitation. Billions appeared in his account, but every second wasted brought him closer to death. Doubt triggered punishment. Failure meant disappearance. With time ticking and enemies lurking in the shadows, Nicola is forced to step into a world of ruthless spending, high-stakes deals, and silent domination. Every humiliation becomes fuel. Every betrayal becomes a debt waiting to be repaid. He was once called trash. Now, the system has made him something far more dangerous.
