Mind Reading

Riker Vale walked out of prison with a paper bag, a broken record, and one name on his mind — Iris. Seven years behind bars. Seven years his daughter grew up without him. Now the world he left behind has moved on — a new man in his house, a court date on the calendar, and every legitimate door already closed before he can knock. Riker has no money. No plan. No training. Just fists that have kept him alive since he was fifteen, and a hunger that seven years of concrete walls couldn't kill. When Damon Creed — Platinum-ranked Iron Captain of the Iron Vow — watches Riker dismantle three men in a back alley and walks out of the shadows to make an offer, Riker doesn't say yes because he wants power. He says yes because Iris deserves a father worth having. The Underworld Circuit is a hidden combat hierarchy running beneath the surface of modern life — ranked fighters, warring factions, brutal tournaments, and stakes that make prison look like a rest stop. Riker enters at the very bottom: unranked, untrained, and already a target. Every rank he climbs brings him closer to Iris — and deeper into a world that could take him away from her forever. VALE is the story of a man who has already lost everything once, fighting like he has nothing left to lose — because this time, he does.

They said he was broken. Born without magic. Chained at sixteen. Thrown from the sky like trash. But Kael Veyrin didn’t lack power. He had too much. In a world where floating cities rule the heavens and magic belongs only to “pure” bloodlines, Kael is a Hollowborn, someone society calls defective. During the Ascension Rite, his touch doesn’t awaken magic. It shatters it. And in doing so, he exposes a truth the world was never meant to remember. Magic was stolen. The system is a lie. And Kael is proof. Marked as a Reverter, hunted by the ruling Council, Kael discovers a forbidden ability: he can copy any spell, any power, and see magic as it was before bloodlines controlled it. But every spell costs him something far worse than pain. His identity. With every stolen ability, his mind fractures. чуж Voices bleed into his thoughts. His body changes. His humanity slips away, percentage by percentage. Now the city above wants him erased. The world below wants him dead. And the only person anchoring him to who he was is about to be executed as bait. He has one hour. A 0.03% chance of success. And a choice that will decide the fate of magic itself. Climb back to the sky… or lose himself becoming strong enough to burn it all down. Power can free the world. Or erase the boy who wields it.

Justin Forbes used to believe in second chances, until the world proved him wrong. Once a promising young medic with unconventional methods, he’s mocked as a lunatic, fired from his job, and abandoned by everyone he trusted, even April, the woman who once swore she believed in him. Branded a disgrace, beaten by the powerful, and left to rot, Justin’s life ends in the alleyways of New York… until a dying girl’s heartbeat changes everything. When Justin revives the Prime Minister’s daughter in a desperate act of instinct, the impossible happens, she lives. His hands burn, his mind fractures, and his gift awakens. The world whispers of a “Miracle Doctor,” but no one knows his face. Now, hidden behind a new identity, Justin becomes the Ghost Doctor, a man whose touch can heal or kill. As he navigates the underworld of medicine, corruption, and betrayal, every life he saves costs him a piece of his own. His former enemies rise to power, his lost love comes crawling back, and a dark government project known as GENESIS hunts the secret in his blood. In a city where saving lives is a business and revenge is currency, Justin Forbes will learn that healing the world might destroy him first. The Hands of Vengeance is a gritty urban medical thriller filled with moral conflict, redemption, and power, where every heartbeat is a secret, every cure has a price, and every touch carries judgment.

He spent three years on his knees. He was never meant to be there. Three years ago, Kael woke up in an alley with no memories and no name. A wealthy family took him in, married him to the daughter they'd given up on, and turned him into their live-in servant—the one who apologizes when vases break and doesn't fight back when fists fly. Then something inside him starts to wake up. Hunters begin appearing. Beautiful, inhuman things that speak a name he doesn't recognize, and when they say it, something in him answers. Memories start bleeding through—memories of power, of judgment, of being something far more than human. Kael wasn't a nobody who lost his past. He was a god. The one who held other gods accountable. And when he got too close to their secrets, they ripped away his power, erased his mind, and buried him in a mortal body to suffer and forget. Now he's remembering. But every time he reaches for what he used to be, he loses a piece of the life he built here—his memories, his emotions, his connection to the wife who stayed. His brother, a god of war, is coming to finish the job. Seven days until he arrives. Kael can become what he was and lose everything human about himself, or stay who he is and die.

When a reality-shattering tear swallows a Chicago subway platform, Raymond Vance awakens in Sector 404, a desolate, starless wasteland dominated by nightly monster waves. Every transmigrated human receives a basic Lord System to construct defensive outposts, but cosmic radiation corrupts Raymond’s system firmware. He gains the unique ability to build reality-bending fortifications and Eldritch weaponry without material resources—but at the direct cost of his own sanity. ​Forced into an active survival loop, Raymond must harvest resources and fresh water during the hostile daylight hours while defending his crumbling shelter against lethal mutant packs at night. Every territory upgrade drains his mental stability, triggering physical hallucinations, auditory torment, and manifestation of cosmic horrors in his peripheral vision. ​The stakes escalate rapidly when an organized army of level-five Ironclad Brutes blocks him into his sector. Rather than rushing his defenses, the brilliant Skull King initiates a strategic siege to starve him out. Trapped between a tightening military perimeter outside and his fraying mind within, Raymond is forced to adapt his system mechanics by sacrificing his own physical vitality and blood to reinforce his defenses. Dropping into critical sanity levels, Raymond must outsmart the giant army, conquer the shifting local terrain, and survive a forced arena teleportation to claim dominion over the entire valley.

Tom Burro was born with one eye clouded gray, the mark that cursed his life. His father called it an omen. His stepmother called him a monster. His only friend was Snowly, a mysterious white dog that seemed to understand everything he said. When Tom’s mother died under strange circumstances, he was abandoned and left to rot in a crumbling orphanage. His half-brother, Gabby Miles Burro, inherited everything, wealth, reputation, and the Burro name, and used it to make Tom’s life a private hell. But on the night Gabby nearly beat him to death, something awoke inside the “bad eye.” The world slowed. The air shimmered. And a voice whispered inside his mind: “The Spirit System of the Matriarchal Line has found its heir.” Suddenly, Tom could see opportunities: glowing threads that led to fortune, danger, or salvation. Every decision revealed invisible paths, the Spiritual Economy of reality itself. From scavenging junkyards to hacking fate, Tom begins climbing from the ashes. But with every gain, he feels someone watching him. The system’s power is evolving, and with it, ancient forces long buried are stirring. Gabby’s greed isn’t just human anymore. Something ancient has chosen him too… By the time Tom learns the truth, that his cursed eye isn’t just a gift but a key to a divine inheritance, he’ll already be trapped in a web of bloodlines, betrayal, and fate. And Snowly, his loyal companion, might not be a dog at all

EARTH ONLINE The black towers hung silent over every city for six months. Then, one November morning, a child's bright voice rang out in every head at once — Earth has gone online — and gave the world three days to eliminate a stranger, or be erased. Half the planet didn't make it. Cole Mercer is a librarian. Quiet, exact, ruthlessly calm — the kind of man who reads the room while everyone else is screaming. When the games begin he finds he's been handed no fire, no lightning, no gift worth the name: only a snide little book that collects the powers of the people he kills, and a mind that has never once lost a game that had rules. The Spire has a great many games. Every one is a trap dressed as a fairy tale, and every one can be solved — if you're cold enough, and fast enough, and willing to do the math while the monster is still smiling. But there's a voice on the other end of a cracked artifact, two hundred miles away: the strongest player on the server, a man Cole has never seen, who already seems to know exactly how he thinks. The tower wants them to climb. It should never have let them meet first. A slow-burn M/M apocalypse where the deadliest thing in any room is two minds that refuse to lose — and the one mistake the end of the world ever made was growing them a partner.
