While his brothers closed multi-million dollar deals, Salim spent his time on his phone, managing obscure influencers in the "frivolous" world of TikTok. The tension boils over at the Bakar Group’s 50th Anniversary Gala. In front of the city’s elite, Salim is publicly betrayed by his own father.

Disowned, stripped of his inheritance, and cast out into the rain, Salim is left with nothing but his smartphone. But the Bakars made a fatal mistake: they confused "quiet" with "weak." They didn't know Salim’s hidden identity. He is the "Ghost Manager," a digital genius who controls the world’s largest viral talent agency.

The face-slapping begins when the boardroom doors open, and the "disgrace" they spat on is the one holding their debt. Salim isn't back for a reunion; he’s back for revenge.

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.

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.

Long before gods walked among mortals and kingdoms dared dream of power, there was Alister—a being not born, but declared into existence by the will of the world itself. Wielding strength beyond comprehension and a charisma that swayed empires, he vanished at the peak of his reign. Some claimed he ascended. Others swore he was sealed. All agreed: if Alister returned, the world would never be the same. Five centuries later, reality tears open.

Now hunted by those sworn to uphold peace, and watched by forgotten cults that once worshipped him, Alister must rediscover why he was made—and what his return truly means for the world.
