Left Behind

What would you do to clear a debt you could never repay? Isaac Rhoades is at rock bottom. After taking a massive illegal loan to pay for his sister’s surgery—only for her to die anyway—he’s hunted by brutal loan sharks, fired from his warehouse job, and left homeless. Just as he's about to end it all, a strange voice echoes in his mind: “System Activation: Mission Credit Redemption Protocol Initiated.” The Debtbound System offers him a way out—but every cleared dollar requires a mission. Deliver cursed packages. Eliminate dangerous criminals. Expose corrupt politicians. Some missions save lives. Others destroy them. Every success earns him powers and a chunk off his debt. Every failure comes at a horrifying cost. As Isaac navigates this deadly path, he discovers he's not the only one bound by the system—and some users will do anything to break free. What started as a fight for survival becomes a war for redemption, power, and the truth behind the system’s origin. To win his freedom, Isaac must conquer the missions. But to keep his soul… he must conquer himself.

Aria’s slippers. That was his nickname. The heir of the Storm family, the genius with an Ice Dragon physique, reduced to a lovesick fool kneeling at a woman’s feet. Groomed by a scheming step-mother and a selfish father, Ragnar was taught all his life that sacrifice meant love. So he endured humiliation, mockery, and broken bones just to live up to expectations. In return, they stripped him of everything. His talent? Stolen through forbidden rituals. Dragon bone? Harvested to empower his half-brother. His sister? Poisoned by his own hands, without him ever knowing, made to raise a child that was never his. Till the veil shattered and they repaid his devotion with the cruelest death possible. But death was not the end. It merely hit a reset button. Time rewound, and the Void Ice Archive awakened. An inheritance left behind by Orkryos Frostheart, the Timeless Ice Monarch — master of space, time, and ice. A treasure that once drove gods to war and burned worlds to ash. Reborn fifteen years before his fall, Ragnar remembers everything. This time, he would become the demon hunting others. He would regain all that was stolen. But first, he must find a way to break the dark ritual that bound his talents to his half-brother.

Jay, a 30-year-old man, lived a life everyone envied—the CEO’s only son, the life of every party, the very picture of confidence. But behind the laughter was a man unloved by his own blood. When he was kidnapped, tortured, and left broken, Jay thought his suffering had reached its end. But fate wasn’t done with him yet. On the night he escaped—bleeding, desperate, and driving for his life—a crash ended it all. Until he opened his eyes again. Reborn as a younger version of himself in a world where titles, bloodlines, and destinies intertwine, Jay no longer seeks fame or perfection. This time, he just wants to live honestly—to be accepted and loved for who he truly is. But fate whispers something impossible: “Prince, you’re special… you were born to have two mates.” One kneels before him, saying, “I don’t swing both sides… but if it’s you, my prince—” The other gazes up, trembling, “My prince… please, let me carry your child.” In this second life, will Jay—the Omega Prince—finally receive the love he was denied in his past? Or will destiny once again turn love into tragedy?

Alex Carter charged into burning buildings for a living, but nothing scorched deeper than watching his wife walk out of the smoke with another man—leaving him behind to die. One hospital room later, he learned the truth: the woman he had loved, protected, and nearly died for was holding another man’s hand, spending millions on his comfort while Alex bled alone. Divorce was quiet. His disappearance was silent. The world thought the firefighter vanished… But he was only rising. Nobody knew Alex was heir to a global financial dynasty worth more than nations—money measured not in millions, not in billions, but quintillions. When he came back, he came back wearing a crown no one saw coming. “Is that really you, Alex?” Lisa whispers when she sees him again—suited, powerful, surrounded by security and black cars. “No,” he answers, eyes cold as steel. “That man died in the fire. I’m just the king that climbed out of the ashes.” Now the woman who abandoned him kneels at the gates of his empire, the man she chose crumbling under the weight of Alex’s return. She left a firefighter. She will crawl before a Quintillionaire King.

While the nobles of the Spire are born with legendary Golden Decks filled with dragons, holy magic, and divine relics, the poor are left with broken scraps barely worth surviving with. Kai is nothing more than a nameless mine slave with no Deck, no status, and no future. But when a deadly cave-in uncovers a hidden flaw in the world’s perfect system, his destiny changes forever. Buried beneath the ruins, Kai discovers [The Wildcard]—a corrupted card capable of becoming anything. A god-slaying sword. A forbidden spell. A monstrous beast. Or… a useless wooden spoon. Unstable, unpredictable, and feared by the system itself, the Wildcard turns Kai into a threat to the very order of Aethelgard. Armed with a chaotic deck forged from literal trash, stolen relics, and impossible combinations, Kai enters the brutal climb of the Spire where every duel is a gamble and every defeat means death. To survive, he must outplay nobles, crush legendary card wielders, and uncover the truth behind the Deck system that controls the world. Because in Aethelgard, power belongs to those lucky enough to draw it. But Kai was never lucky. He cheats fate itself. A dark fantasy progression novel packed with ruthless battles, evolving cards, deadly tower climbs, and a zero-to-overpowered journey where the weakest slave may become the greatest wildcard the world has ever seen.
