The First Heir

He was the nobody intern they all mocked—until the truth of his bloodline shattered their world. Derek Blackwood had spent his life buried in shadows, scraping by on scraps and swallowing the bitterness of being unwanted. The elite mocked him. The woman he loved betrayed him.

But when his estranged grandfather, the former patriarch of the fallen Blackwood Empire, is murdered under suspicious circumstances, the truth explodes like a landmine: Derek is the rightful heir. Now hunted by those who destroyed his legacy, Derek returns not as the timid intern they discarded, but as a man reborn. Armed with secrets, strategy, and a hunger for justice, he begins his rise—from forgotten bastard to future king of a shattered empire. Enemies who once sneered now tremble. Allies begin to emerge from the shadows. And as Derek navigates a world of bloodline feuds, betrayal, and buried truths, one thing becomes clear: he will rebuild what was stolen—and make them all pay. But revenge has a price. And so does power. In a world where loyalty is bought and family is a weapon, can Derek reclaim his throne without losing his soul?
