Once Bitten Twice Shy

Ethan Blackwood, once the overlooked son of a powerful family, is betrayed and left for dead by his own kin. In his final moments, a mysterious system activates within him, offering a second chance at life and power. Now reborn with abilities beyond imagination, Ethan embarks on a journey to reclaim his rightful place and exact vengeance on those who wronged him.

They thought he was dead. They buried the truth with his name. But legends don’t die—they go dark. Darius Raines, code-named “Ghost,” was the government’s best weapon—an elite hacker and black-ops operative until the day he vanished in a fiery car explosion. Officially pronounced dead, Darius walked away from the lies, burned everything that tethered him to the system, and became a shadow in a city drowning in corruption. Five years later, Atlanta is a battleground. Billion-dollar empires are built on secrets, bodies disappear with no questions asked, and the same corrupt officials who tried to kill Darius now run the city from behind closed doors. But Ghost is back. And he’s not here for mercy. With a custom-built AI surveillance system and a hidden network of rogue insiders, Darius launches an all-out war against the syndicate that turned his life into a lie. His mission? Expose the Ghost Code—a black-file project that links murder, money laundering, and mind control to the highest levels of government. The catch? The only person who can help him unlock it is Amira Cole—the one woman who once believed in him and now believes he’s a traitor. Hunted by law enforcement, betrayed by his own team, and forced into a deadly cat-and-mouse game with the most dangerous man in America, Darius must choose: Save the city or save his soul. The Ghost Code is an urban mystery thriller that will grip your throat and refuse to let go. Full of brutal twists, high-tech warfare, street justice, psychological warfare, and a heart-wrenching romance, this is not just a fight for redemption—it’s a war for the truth. And in Darius’s world, the truth is never free.

In a galaxy governed by the Universal Ranking System, power is quantified, and destiny is dictated by an omnipotent algorithm. Every being, from the lowliest drone to the most elite warrior, is assigned a rank that determines their worth, access, and fate. For centuries, the system has maintained order but now, it’s breaking down. Kael Arvid, a disgraced pilot turned rogue hacker, lives in the shadow of his former rank. Once a rising star in the Interstellar Fleet, Kael was stripped of his status after a catastrophic mission that left him questioning the system’s integrity. When he stumbles upon a hidden code buried deep within the algorithm a code that could dismantle the entire hierarchy—he becomes the most wanted man in the galaxy. Pursued by the ruthless Ascendancy Corps, Kael must forge uneasy alliances with outcasts, rebels, and rogue AIs who have their own reasons for wanting the system destroyed. But as Kael delves deeper into the code, he uncovers a chilling truth: the system isn’t just ranking lives it’s controlling them. And it has a plan for Kael that could either save the galaxy or doom it forever. As the ranking system spirals into chaos, Kael must decide whether to destroy the algorithm, seize control of it, or transcend it entirely. In a universe where every choice is quantified, Kael’s defiance could spark a revolution—or ignite a war that will consume the stars.

In my former life, I was a female healer, unaware of the true extent of my powers. My abilities caught the attention of an S-rank guild, and I was recruited with promises of prestige and respect. But instead of the honour I was promised, I was met with betrayal and cruelty. They saw me not as a person but as a tool to be used and discarded. I endured unspeakable suffering—raped,abused, exploited, and left to die when they no longer had use for me. But fate granted me a second chance. [Ding!] For enduring so much suffering until death, you have awakened the Pleasure system. You will be reincarnated into a new body. Would you desire any changes? I was reincarnated as a boy, this time gifted with the power to manipulate time and a pleasure system. As my abilities awakened, so too did the memories of my past life. The pain, the humiliation, and the injustice—it all came flooding back. This time, I vowed, and things would be different. I would not be a victim again. I would rise above the cruelty of my past and claim the power and respect I was denied. Yet, revenge is not my sole purpose. I will become the strongest, the richest, and the most influential figure in this world. I will amass power not just for vengeance but to ensure that no one can ever take advantage of me. As I ascend to the pinnacle of strength and wealth, I will claim what was once denied to me: control, respect, money, and the loyalty of those who once sought to destroy me.
