Monster

In the darkest corners of Marseille, where hope sinks faster than a rusted anchor, an overdose should have been the end for Jean Valéry. But for this broken Navy veteran, death was only a doorway. He awoke with another soul burning within him—that of the Black Sea Alchemist, the failed guardian of Atlantis, whispering of ancient magic and the vengeance of the deep. Every corner of the Old Port is now his laboratory, every drop of polluted saltwater an ingredient for deadly potions and poisons. Fractured memories guide him, while a raw and dangerous alchemical power demands release. But Marseille is not only a haven for crime bosses. Deep within its murky waters, an ancient power has awakened, demanding accountability for the failures of his past reincarnations. To save the city, he must first seize it from the grip of the underworld. To atone for the sins of the past, he must become a monster in the present. This is not a story about the rise of a hero. This is a story of transmutation—how a broken man is melted down in the crucible of magic, malice, and destiny. The question isn't whether he will survive, but what he will become afterward: an unbeatable crime king, or a protector damned by the sea?

When gods bleed, mortals awaken… Centuries ago, the gods fell, and from their corpses flowed Eclipse Veins glowing rivers of divine blood that reshaped the world. Those who dared to drink from them gained unimaginable power… and lost pieces of their humanity in return. Now, as the last eclipse rises, the veins are dying and so is the empire that depends on them. Chaos spreads across the fractured lands, and those born under the eclipse are marked as Cursed Descendants hunted, feared, and executed. Riven Kael, a disciplined young soldier, never believed in fate until the night his veins ignited silver on the battlefield and everything he touched turned to ash. Branded a monster and forced to flee, Riven crosses paths with Lyra Vale, a mysterious girl who claims to be the reincarnation of the moon goddess herself. Lyra knows Riven’s secret the god’s voice whispering in his blood is the same one that once destroyed the heavens. To save what remains of humanity, Riven must uncover the truth behind his divine curse before the Eclipse Veins collapse completely… or become the god who ends the world a second time. But love was never part of the prophecy. And when a goddess falls for a god-killer, the stars themselves will tremble.

In a world where magic is the ultimate corporate currency, one man's ability to bend probability could either save the city—or burn it to the ground. When billionaire CEO Alex Thompson survives an impossible car crash, he awakens with a dangerous gift: the power to manipulate probability itself. In the neon-drenched streets of New Eden, where corporate empires are built on ancient magic and reality bends to those who control it, Alex's newfound abilities make him the most valuable—and hunted—man alive. But when he discovers his trusted assistant Maya is actually a witch sent to monitor him, everything shatters. She was his warden, not his ally. Now, as a malevolent cabal called the Architects emerges to exploit his powers and collapse all probability into one predetermined fate, Alex faces an impossible choice: trust the woman who betrayed him to save humanity's free will, or embrace absolute control and become the monster everyone fears. In a deadly game where trust is illusion and control is corruption, Alex must learn the hardest lesson of all—true power isn't bending fate to your will. It's having the courage to let go. The fate of New Eden hangs in the balance. And the probability of survival? Impossible to calculate.

What if I told you that they were right? That Bigfoot, The Abominable Snowman, The Loch Ness monster and yes, even The Boogey man were actually real? What if I told you your parents were right when they told you that there are monsters and demons that lurked in the shadows at night? I have seen those monsters, through visions of prophecy and none have baffled me more than The Marauder and The Supremes. Beings even Science could not explain, creatures that held godlike power for so long and walked among us as both oppressors and at times, as saviors. This is one such prophecy I had that I had to put on paper. Call it a story if you wish (it would actually make me feel less crazy). But this is the story of Brendan Payne; the sixteen year old high school boy who went from a regular teenager to finding out that he was not human but instead was born into a race of beings that were believed to be the final and perfect stage of evolution. And by finding out his destiny, Brendan is torn between fighting for the humans who resented him and joining forces with the callous yet beautiful witch, Finch, who claims to have his best interests at heart. This...is The Legend Of Marauder

Osric Thorne was the discarded heir of the Thorne shipping empire, a man who thought he had everything until his wife, Elowen Vane, and his best friend, Cuthbert, threw him off the Gilded Sovereign in the middle of a Category 5 storm. With his feet chained to an anchor and the scent of Elowen's expensive perfume lingering in the salt air, Osric was meant to be a forgotten feast for the scavengers of the abyss.

In the crushing, lightless depths of the Atlantic, Osric doesn't drown...he adapts.

Now, a monster is rising from the depths. Osric Thorne isn't coming back just to reclaim his company; he’s coming back to dismantle the Vane legacy piece by piece and turn the surface world into his personal hunting ground. He was once a man of the boardrooms, but he has returned as the Warden-King of the Abyss. The elites of Oakhaven are about to learn a bitter truth: the ocean doesn't forgive, and neither does Osric Thorne.

Three years ago, Dr. Adrian Cole was the golden boy of surgery until the powerful Monroe family framed him for malpractice, stripping him of his license and his wife, Lilian. Now, Adrian has returned as Chairman Cole, the cold, ruthless majority shareholder of a medical conglomerate, and his target is the Metropolitan Medical Group (MMG)—the very hospital that ruined him.

His revenge is no longer just personal; it's a desperate fight for survival against an international enemy. The one weakness in his airtight plan is Dr. Lily Monroe, Lilian’s brilliant younger sister, who secretly believes in Adrian’s innocence. As he installs her in a high-stakes position to gather intel, their volatile professional rivalry ignites an intense, forbidden attraction. When The Foundation issues its brutal ultimatum—forcing Adrian and Lily into a public, fake engagement to protect her reputation—the line between protector and adversary vanishes. Can Adrian dismantle a global conspiracy without losing the one woman who sees the man behind the monster, or will the price of his ultimate victory be the second life he fought so hard to reclaim?
