Jacqui Walking Dead

Darius Kane was branded a coward, the last “loser” of a slaughtered noble house. Three years later, he returns—a decorated war commander with a vendetta forged in blood. “You shouldn’t have come back,” sneers Vincent Reksar, smirking at the man he thinks is powerless. Darius’s eyes narrow. “Funny. I was thinking the same about you.” Every enemy who mocked his family, stole his home, and left him for dead is about to face a reckoning. The city’s most feared clans gather for a wedding—a perfect stage for Darius’s return. Haley, his ex-fiancée and the traitor who betrayed him, tries to dismiss him. “You’re nothing, Darius. You’re still that loser—” He cuts her off coldly. “Losers don’t get second chances. Commanders do.” Now, vengeance marches at his heels. The loser is the commander. And the war for justice has only begun.

Once, Matteo Rossi was the right hand of Rome’s most feared crime lord.
Then betrayal turned him into a ghost. Left for dead in a warehouse fire, Matteo crawled out of the ashes with nothing but rage, a new name, and a plan. From the gutters of Naples to the marble towers of Milan, he rebuilds himself smarter, richer, colder. The underworld that buried him will learn that you can’t kill a man who’s already burned. But vengeance isn’t simple. To take back the empire, Matteo must play politician, businessman, and devil at once, outsmarting the Wolves who betrayed him while keeping the crown from turning him into the monster he once served. In a country built on bloodlines and secrets, power is never inherited—it’s taken.

On our third wedding anniversary, I lit candles, cooked her favorite meal, and waited. She said she was working late. I went to surprise her. Instead, I found my wife walking into a hotel with another man—laughing, kissing—while I stood in the street like a fool. That night, I filed for divorce. The next day, her lover shoved me into traffic. The car should have killed me. Instead, I woke up with a power I can’t explain—five frozen seconds where the world stands still, and only I can move. Five seconds to expose a lie. Five seconds to ruin an enemy. Five seconds to make them choke on every ounce of humiliation they gave me. They took my love, my trust, and the life I built. Now I’m taking everything from them—slow enough that they’ll see it coming, and fast enough they can’t stop it. She betrayed me. They tried to bury me. But I’m not the man they remember. I’m the man they’ll regret ever crossing.

Gabriel Hale had nothing but clothes on his back and the girl he’d die for. Living on the merciless streets of Chicago, he became the city’s most elusive thief all to save his dying girlfriend, Vera. Every stolen wallet, every dangerous heist and every close call with death was worth it if it meant one day with her. When a shadowy organization offers him ten million dollars to steal the legendary Phoenix Heart artifact from the heavily guarded Siegel family vault, Gabriel knows it is suicide, but for Vera’s life-saving surgery, he would walk through hell itself. He never expected hell to follow him back. Betrayed, broken and left for dead after the ancient artifact fused with his soul, Gabriel awakens three days later to discover the cruelest truth. Vera was never sick. Every sacrifice, every crime and every drop of blood he had shed was all for a lie. Now, with the Phoenix Heart’s power burning through his veins, Gabriel will rise from the ashes of his former life. The streets that once crushed him will kneel. The city that forgot him will remember and the woman that shattered his heart will beg for the love she threw away. He was Gabriel, the nobody. Now, he will become Gabriel the Untouchable. The last heir of a forgotten empire and master of an ancient power that should have stayed buried.

Five years ago, Christopher Rowe lost everything — his wife, his home, and the life he once knew. He disappeared into the abyss, forgotten by the world and abandoned by fate. Now he returns — no longer the powerless man he once was, but a legend feared by the powerful and respected by kings. A single desperate message from his wife shatters the silence and reignites the storm within him. When he discovers the cruelty his wife and daughter have endured in his absence, the man the world thought dead rises again — not for glory, but for vengeance. Those who hurt his family will kneel. Those who mocked his name will beg for mercy.

When a cosmic event called The Reset merges the digital and physical worlds, chaos consumes Earth. Each human receives a “King System,” granting unique abilities and the chance to become a ruler in this brutal new hierarchy. Leon Vale, a 26-year-old mechanic and outcast, awakens to find his system inactive. Mocked and left for dead, Leon discovers his “broken” system hides a forbidden protocol: the ability to absorb and steal the powers of other Kings. Armed with this gift — and a vengeance born from betrayal — Leon sets out to hunt the new Kings. Along the way, he allies with Iris Kade, an ex-soldier with a loyalty-based combat system, and forms a ragtag empire of survivors. As Leon’s power grows, he learns of The Architect, the entity behind The Reset, and uncovers a secret war between divine factions using humanity as their testing ground. From the ashes of civilization, Leon must decide: will he become humanity’s savior, or its final tyrant? The answer will shape the new age — and crown The Last King.

On the night of Kael Draven’s birth, the skies split in two. The moon turned blood-red, the Veil of Aegis—the sacred barrier protecting the kingdom of Eryndor—shattered, and demons poured into the realm, slaughtering thousands. His mother died in childbirth, and the High Hierophant Malrick, leader of the Sanctum of Luminar, declared the newborn child the source of the calamity. From that moment, Kael was branded the “cursed child,” a walking omen of doom. His noble family disowned him, his name erased from their records, while his younger brother Aelric was exalted as the chosen heir. Kael grew up in chains, spat upon by peasants and nobles alike, humiliated in public festivals, and treated as less than a dog. His only friend was Fang, a scarred stray dog who shared his pain. Yet fate had other plans. During the grand trial, where Kael was condemned to die by being devoured by a monstrous beast in the royal arena, the curse mark on his body ignited. A fading celestial spirit, Elyndra, bonded with him, and his soul unlocked the Eclipse Codex, a divine system hidden within the mark. What the world called a curse revealed itself as a path to power. Despised by all, betrayed by blood, and hunted by the temple, Kael will rise from scorned trash to savior of Eryndor. The curse they fear is the only hope of salvation against Umbraxis, the Eternal Hunger—the primordial evil sealed at Kael’s birth, now stirring once again.

To survive, Ethan must outwit assassins, seduce empires, and risk everything on a game rigged against him.
