However, he got into a lot of trouble because of his physique and giving a false image to others. Many girls start looking for him, and he gets in trouble for it. This leads him to get into a fight with one of his friends and causes a lot of damage to the place where he got into a fight, which he couldn't pay for. So the owners of a school offer to pay the debt if he enrolls in the school and represents them in some games.

Faced with the uncertainty he feels, he decides to help him to get better and not raise suspicions of others, but things will not be as easy as he thought.

Everyone said he was destined for greatness. But one failed breakthrough shattered his future.

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

BLURB/DESCRIPTION I never asked to be born a mistake. My whole life, I was the kid nobody wanted—the one they whispered about, the one they shoved into corners and hoped would disappear. My father pretended I didn't exist. My stepmother made sure I knew I was trash. My half-siblings treated me like a servant in my own home. And then there was Emma—my girlfriend, or so I thought. Until I came back from a trip to find her wearing my half-brother's ring. They threw me out with nothing. No money. No home. No future. But then my phone buzzed. One message. One number I'd never seen before. And suddenly, ten billion dollars appeared in my account. Turns out, I'm not nobody. I'm the grandson of Richard Blackwell—the richest man in the world. The man I never knew existed. The man who just made me his only heir. Now I have the power. The money. The name. And everyone who ever looked down on me? They're about to find out what happens when the boy they called worthless becomes the man they can't touch.

For ten years, the world knew him only as a myth The Young Marshal. The government’s most classified weapon. The commander of 200,000 troops. A man whose face was forbidden from appearing in public. But Lorenzo Romano has finally come home. After a decade of bloodshed on distant battlefields, Lorenzo returns to Marina Azzurra with nothing but a duffel bag and a promise carved into his heart: Find Carolina Pescatori… the girl who once saved his life. She moved on. She became famous. She doesn’t even know the war hero the world worships was once the street boy she helped all those years ago. Haunted by war, burdened by secrets, and followed by a shadow of power he can’t escape, Lorenzo wants only one thing— to repay the kindness that kept him alive when nothing else could. But in a city of politics, wealth, hidden enemies, and old betrayals, the return of the Young Marshal is not a blessing… It’s a spark. One that could ignite a war far deadlier than the one he left behind. And when Carolina finally meets him a gain, she must decide— Is he the hero the nation calls a legend… or the broken weapon he believes himself to be?

His grandfather; the terrifying patriarch of the Hardwick family, was furious. Disgraced, John vanished overnight. His name was wiped clean from the internet. No news, no photos, no trace.

Eventually, he earned a title that sent shivers through the enemy ranks: GOD OF WAR. Now, he’s back. Not as a spoiled billionaire—but as a weapon. A king in exile returned. And this time, he’s taking back everything that was his. The name. The throne. The trillion-dollar empire. And anyone who stands in his way… will fall.
