Stealing Spree

What happens when an ordinary teen beats the god of games without knowing it? Corey Feldman is an eighteen year old gamer. His final year of high school started with a huge bang when he's challenged by a masked player for his title as best gamer, in one of his favorite game. Corey wins the game easily, and notices that the player logged off without a word. Feeling unbothered Corey had no idea he had just beaten a sentient deity at a game, and the god did not like that. When a new game comes out, stealing the eyes and hearts of all the children in his small town, Corey feels compelled to play it. The game is called the lock keeper, and the moment he plugged it in, he died. Now reborn inside the game, at level zero with a god given ability, Corey is challenged once again by the deity. “Level up, and make your way to the final round, there we will fight for the ultimate title. If you win, I will relinquish my abilities and status to you, if you don't. You better hope you win, Corey." The eerie voice bite out. Corey isn't one to back down from a challenge, but he's never actually played a game in full person. Taking actual damages and all. Can Corey outsmart the lock keeper and become the new god of games? Or will he suffer the same fate as the others who tried? Read to find out. This is a video game harem. Each chapter is a new level. I just have one question, can you survive the lock keeper?

At twenty-eight, Adrian Cole returns to New York after being expelled from his family at eighteen. Once the heir to Cole Meridian, he was accused of stealing millions and lost everything. Now a hidden CEO, he receives an offer to investigate his father's death and accepts because the truth can restore his name. Adrian is intelligent, controlled, and decisive. He gives himself one deadline: uncover the truth before the people behind Richard's death discover his identity. His secret power makes him the perfect weapon against the family empire. The rules are clear: 1. No unnecessary trust. 2. No revealing his full power. 3. Never fall in love. But the contract is lying: Adrian's hidden clause makes emotional attachment a weakness his enemies can exploit. He protects Elena Cross, his business ally, while Marcus fights to keep Cole Meridian and a rival searches for Richard's records. Adrian follows the missing inheritance, Archive 17, and Grant Strategic Holdings, but every discovery exposes another person connected to his father's death. Adrian must choose between revenge and the truth. Marcus frames Adrian for corporate fraud. Adrian declares, "You took my name once. You won't take it again." Adrian takes control of Cole Meridian, but Samuel Reed returns with proof that Richard's death was only part of a larger operation. The fallout exposes Marcus's crimes and removes his control. The Circle's connection to Richard finally becomes public. Elena helps Adrian rebuild the company without controlling his decisions. Months later, Adrian stands in his father's restored office with the recovered records beside him. His name is finally cleared, but one sealed file carries a single warning: "London."
