Once Rejected, Now Desired

Ethan Moore spent ten years being the perfect husband. He worked sixteen hour shifts so his wife Claire could carry designer bags. He paid off his mother in law's credit card debt four times. He covered his brother in law's DUI lawyers, his daughter's private school tuition, and every vacation, every spa trip, every brunch bill that his family racked up without ever once saying thank you. And when he lay dying in a hospital bed with three cracked ribs and a punctured lung, not one of them held his hand. "I called the insurance company this morning. The payout is $750,000, but with the accidental clause, it bumps to 1.2 million." His wife crossed her legs and scrolled through her phone without looking at him once. "What about the stock options from his company? Those vest on death, don't they?" His mother in law leaned against the doorframe with her arms folded. And then his daughter, the girl he carried on his shoulders at county fairs, the girl he stayed up with during thunderstorms, looked up from her phone and said the words that stopped his heart. "You know he's not even my real dad, right? I just want to know if I still get stuff. I really need a new phone." He woke up three years in the past with every memory of his deathbed burned into his brain and a system that returned every dollar he spent tenfold. The man who once apologized to a waiter for sending back cold soup now buys $400,000 suits without blinking. The man who skipped his own father's funeral because his wife said they couldn't afford the flight now carries $20 million in his back pocket. The pushover is dead. And the people who killed him don't even know he's coming.

Humanity trembles under the shadow of demons—humanoid beings who appeared without warning, wielding unimaginable power. In mere days, they conquered an entire continent and now set their sights on the rest of the world. Standing between mankind and annihilation are the Exorcists, elite warriors who channel sacred energies to repel the demonic tide. Nineteen-year-old Nathan Reyes has spent his life dreaming of joining their ranks, determined to protect the innocent and avenge the devastation wrought upon his city. But one day, everything goes wrong. Nathan unknowingly absorbs a demon core. Now burdened with volatile demonic energy swirling inside him, Nathan stands at the edge of humanity and monstrosity. His once-heroic dream is threatened by suspicion, fear, and his inner darkness. Yet this forbidden power may be the key to defeating the demons once and for all—if Nathan can master it before it consumes him. In a world where light and darkness blur, Demon Core Exorcist is a pulse-pounding urban fantasy of mystical battles, secret legacies, and the price of power—and of a young man determined to carve his path between salvation and damnation. --------------- I'd appreciate it if you could take a look at my book and share your thoughts.

Synopsis: The world ignored him, the System insulted him, but the Void chose him. In a world ravaged by dimensional rifts, Jaden Grey was nothing more than F-rank "scum." As a Beastmaster, he was mocked for only being able to tame a weak, helpless Moss Caterpillar. The humiliation peaked when his own team betrayed him, using him as monster bait and leaving him to a grizzly death in the depths of an A-Rank Dungeon. Yet, on the brink of death, a cold voice echoed in his mind: [Hidden Conditions Met: Unlocking the Void Evolution System.] That despised Moss Caterpillar mutated into a primordial predator from the void dimension. From a frail insect, it became a shadow sovereign capable of devouring Mana and severing the soul contracts of elite Hunters. Now, Jaden has returned from the darkness. He no longer seeks validation. With a Void Insect on his shoulder and the Eye of Evolution—capable of seeing the dead ends of fate—he will hunt down those who once trampled upon him. One by one, arrogant young lords and massive sects will fall to their knees. For in the presence of the Void Beastmaster, there are only two choices: Evolve or become Prey! "You used to call me trash. Now, let my pet sweep the world clean of your existence."

Nineteen-year-old Prince Elian Vaelthorne has spent his life seeking the approval of a father who has never shown him love. Raised within the glittering walls of the royal palace, Elian believes loyalty and honor are enough to protect him. But when his trusted mentor accuses him of treason, everything he knows collapses. Stripped of his authority, imprisoned, and abandoned by the king, Elian discovers a hidden message suggesting that his mother, Queen Seraphine, did not die as the kingdom was told.

There, Elian witnesses the suffering concealed beneath Valthera's magnificent towers.

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. From a rift beyond space and time, Alister walks once more into a world unrecognizable—skyscrapers scraping the heavens, dragons living in the shadows, and mysterious abominations known as Nullborn haunting the land. With a smile on his lips and golden eyes that see through fate itself, Alister steps into a modern age... and accidentally collides with Jade, a full-blooded dragon hiding her past behind emerald eyes and forced smiles. As chaos erupts and monstrous forces rise, Alister's presence alone shakes the balance of peace. Though he seems calm, even kind, there is something deeply unsettling about him—something not even Jade, with all her ancient blood, can explain. When blood is spilled and oaths are broken, fear spreads like wildfire. 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. Because some legends were buried for a reason.
