Ghost

Once a ghost, always a ghost. Ethan Vale, a quiet locksmith in East London, hides from a past that officially doesn’t exist. Years ago, he was an MI5 infiltration specialist — until a mission in Prague went wrong, his entire team was killed, and his name was erased. He’s lived in silence since. Until one rain-soaked night, a woman named Clara Daines bursts into his shop with a bleeding shoulder and a biometric case she claims holds evidence of a government conspiracy. Hours later, armed men arrive. Ethan’s calm life is shattered in seconds. When he opens the case, he finds something impossible — an active MI5 kill order with his name on it, dated that same day. Hunted by his own agency, Ethan partners with Detective Isla Hart, a sharp but idealistic investigator chasing a string of assassinations linked to a defunct MI5 unit known as Division 9 — the same unit Ethan once led. As Ethan unravels the mystery, he discovers Division 9 never truly ended — it evolved into The Consortium, a covert alliance manipulating London’s surveillance systems to engineer obedience. Every crime, every target, every “accident” is part of a digital control plan called Project Echelon II. The closer Ethan gets to the truth, the more he realizes: Division 9 didn’t just erase him. It rebuilt him — piece by piece. And now, the ghosts he buried are coming back… wearing his face. The final revelation will force Ethan to confront the deepest question of all: Is he still human — or just another trace in someone else’s code?

Kaelen Voss is the best Auctioneer in the business—a rogue who hunts forgotten gods in the shadows of the world, capturing fading deities and selling them to the highest bidder. When a forgotten deity is forgotten, it becomes a Pareidolia, an ephemeral ghost that can be bound and traded like currency. Gods of forgotten waterfalls. Gods of extinct animals. Gods of childhood dreams never remembered. But Kaelen has a secret: he hears their whispers. Every captured god screams in his mind, and the only way to silence them is to find them a new owner. It's a curse. It's a business. It's survival. When he captures an unnamed god of pure malice—a shapeless, nameless thing that predates civilization—he thinks he's struck gold. Until he discovers the truth. This isn't a god. It's an Anti-God. The concept of endings made manifest. The end of empires. The end of bloodlines. The end of everything. Now, powerful factions are hunting him: the Veil Council wants to weaponize the Anti-God. The Shadow Syndicate wants to sell it to the highest bidder. And a mysterious woman from his past knows the Anti-God's true name—the one thing that could either bind it forever or unleash the apocalypse. Kaelen must run an impossible auction, selling the one thing that can end all things to a buyer who can contain it, before the world's most powerful players tear reality apart to claim it. But the Anti-God is patient. And it has been waiting for an Auctioneer who can finally hear its whisper. The End is coming. And Kaelen is holding the bidding paddle.

For three years, Ethan Cole was a ghost in his own marriage. ​He was the "pity project" of the Bennett family—a penniless man Sophia married to satisfy a debt of conscience. He spent those years enduring the sting of public insults, the cold silence of his wife’s bed, and the crushing weight of being called a "useless parasite" by the city's elite. ​On their third anniversary, the humiliation reached its peak. Sophia didn’t give him a gift; she gave him divorce papers—and she did it in a ballroom filled with the very people who laughed at his shoes. She chose Ryan Parker, a man with a heavy wallet and a hollow soul. ​But Sophia made one fatal mistake. ​She never asked where Ethan came from before the day she found him broken on the street. ​Ethan Cole isn’t a failure. He is a weapon forged by the most powerful dynasty the world has never seen. He is the hidden heir to the Cole Empire, and for three years, he was simply waiting for the betrayal that would allow him to stop playing human. ​Now, the black card is out. The convoy is waiting. ​As the Bennett family’s world begins to crumble and Ryan Parker’s empire turns to ash, the city realizes too late that they didn't just mock a poor man—they humiliated a King. ​Ethan is back for blood, wealth, and the kind of revenge that leaves no survivors. But as he climbs back onto his throne, he must decide: will he reclaim his humanity, or will he become the monster everyone always accused him of being? ​The world is kneeling. Sophia is breaking. And Ethan? Ethan is just getting started.

He died a failure. He woke up a weapon. Ethan Cross had nothing: betrayed by the wife who took his fortune, disowned by his billionaire family, and publicly humiliated after a failed suicide attempt. At his absolute lowest, a cold, alien intelligence the Wealth Ascension System activates within him. Its offer is ruthless: complete impossible financial tasks for vast rewards, or suffer brutal neurological punishments for failure. With the System as his relentless engine, Ethan transforms from a broken man into "Mr. AK," a ghost of the financial world. He builds an empire in the shadows, amassing billions while systematically dismantling the lives of those who destroyed him. His ex-wife, Claire, watches in furious denial as the mysterious tycoon "Mr. AK" outmaneuvers her at every turn, never suspecting the rival ruining her ascent is the husband she left for dead. From a viral "Hobo Billionaire" stunt to a hostile takeover of his own family's empire, Ethan's revenge is calculated, cold, and spectacular. The final blow lands at Claire's own wedding, where a shocking public reveal exposes Mr. AK's true identity, destroying her new life and legacy in a single, devastating moment. But as one war ends, a greater one begins. The System's final message is clear: "Phase One Complete. Phase Two: Global Domination Initiated." Ethan must now decide if he is the master of this power, or merely its most valuable pawn. This is a story of bone-deep betrayal, astronomical wealth as a weapon, and a revenge so perfect it changes the world.

Ashes of the Forsaken Bride Amara Cole spent her life navigating the shadows of a family that viewed her as an invisible asset. When she is traded into a marriage with Damien Hartwell—the notoriously cold, brilliant heir to a multi-billion-dollar empire—she foolishly believes she is escaping a nightmare. Instead, she merely steps into a more glamorous cage. Behind the grand gates of the Hartwell estate, Amara finds a world defined by old-money malice. Her mother-in-law maps her flaws with clinical precision, her sister-in-law treats her presence as a joke, and Damien remains entirely untouchable, running their marriage like a bloodless corporate transaction. Yet, Amara clings to the fragile hope that if she just proves her worth, she can earn a place at their table. But in a world built on power, hope is a liability. When a calculated betrayal frames her for a corporate disaster, Amara is abandoned by the husband she tried to trust. Left with nothing, she vanishes into the night, leaving the elite social circle to believe she is gone forever. Years later, the ashes finally clear. The timid girl they dismantled never returned. In her place stands a woman the Hartwells could never have anticipated—stronger, wealthier, and armed with an international backing that rivals their own. Amara has forged her heartbreak into a weapon, uncovering the dark secrets that can bring down dynasties. As she steps back into the high-society spotlight, she isn't looking for a reconciliation. She is here to watch them fall. Damien is forced to confront the absolute worst mistake of his life, but when a ghost returns to claim what's hers, late-night regret won't be enough to alter the contract. This time, the price of his betrayal is everything.

Wes Calloway is twenty-three, a high school dropout working three jobs in Miami to keep his dying mother alive and give his autistic younger brother, Sawyer, a real shot at care. Then he finds a crack in the world: a decimal-rounding flaw buried in a cryptocurrency exchange's settlement code, invisible to everyone but him. He starts skimming fractions of a cent, untraceable, and pours the money into his family's survival. He is not the only one watching the exploit. An anonymous handler known only as the Watcher warns him the traffic has drawn attention from Marea Holdings, a laundering front tied to a cartel with roots deeper than Wes understands, and from executives inside VaultChain, the exchange itself, who built the backdoor on purpose and have been quietly draining it for years. When Wes refuses to sell his silence, Marea's enforcer, Rourke, kidnaps Sawyer to force his hand. Wes stops hiding. Working with the Watcher, a former VaultChain security engineer with her own decade-old grudge against the company, he uncovers a truth that reframes everything he thought he knew about his life: his father did not die in an accident. He was murdered a decade ago for finding the same fraud Wes just found on his own. Racing against a countdown to get his brother back alive, Wes turns the exploit into a weapon: freezing Marea's accounts mid-transaction, exposing VaultChain's executives live to federal investigators and the press, and forcing a shadow war fought entirely in code, algorithms, and money. When the smoke clears, Wes is not a ghost anymore. He is the man who broke a cartel and a corporation with nothing but a laptop and a reason to fight, and Miami will never forget his name.

“Don’t make a scene, Marcus.” Quinn’s eyes, always so cold, flicked over him as if he were an unwanted stain. “A Saintess can’t be sullied by a man like you. Keep your distance.” For three years, Marcus Steel was a ghost in his own marriage. His wife, worshipped for her holy power, never let him near—not even a touch, not a night together. Yet every gathering, she let Alexander—her so-called ‘brother,’ his former best friend—rest his head in her lap, her hand stroking his hair, their laughter intimate and careless for the world to see. “Does it ever bother you?” Marcus whispered one night, desperation thick in his voice. “That you give him what you never gave me?” Sophia only smiled, distant as ever. “Alexander needs me. You… you’re just my duty.” When the earthquake shattered the banquet hall, Marcus reached for her through the falling debris. “Quinn! Please! Just take my hand—help me!” But her golden barrier was already around Alexander. She didn’t even look at Marcus as he screamed, “I’m your husband! Don’t leave me—” “I can’t save everyone,” she said, voice like ice. “Alex is injured. I promised to protect him.” As rubble crushed his body and hope faded, something ancient awoke in Marcus. Flames danced in his blood, power surging from the pain, the betrayal. From the ashes of humiliation and heartbreak, a dragon roared to life. Marcus Steel is dead. The Dragon King rises—and the Saintess will beg for mercy she never showed. DRAGON BOOK PART 2- PRIESTESS'S WORTHLESS HUSBAND IS A DRAGON COMMANDER
