The Substitute Wife

Five years ago, when demons attacked, and Alex lost his parents, in the process he disappeared and everyone assumed he was dead including his wife Rose and their daughter. Now he's back, determined to reclaim everything he lost. But everyone still sees him as the same worthless man who abandoned his family. Rose's family looks down on him. Elite commanders mock him. Even his own in-laws call him useless and demand Rose choose a "real man." What they don't know is that Alex has become the Lord Supreme—the most powerful being alive. When demons breach the city's safest district and trap his daughter, while other "heroes" rush to help, Alex must reveal his true identity. How do you prove your worth to people who've already written you off? How do you win back a family that thinks you're dead inside? Sometimes the greatest power is letting them underestimate you... until it's time to show them exactly who you've become.

Vivian Chase divorced Logan Mercer with a smile on her face and contempt in her voice. “You were never a husband, Logan. Just a burden I was too embarrassed to throw away sooner.” For years, Logan lived quietly by her side, letting her believe he was nothing more than a broke man surviving off her success. While Vivian built her glittering career, Logan stayed in the shadows—silent, patient, and underestimated. So when Vivian cheats on him with a powerful socialite and throws divorce papers in his face, she thinks she’s finally cutting off dead weight. “You’re nothing,” she sneers. “A useless beggar who got lucky marrying me.” Logan signs without hesitation, then looks her dead in the eyes. “You’re right,” he says calmly. “I was never meant to stay where I wasn’t valued.” Minutes later, seven luxury cars pull up outside. A line of suited men bow as Logan steps out. “Mr. Mercer, the board is waiting.” Vivian’s world shatters when she learns the truth: the “useless husband” she humiliated is the hidden founder of a trillion-dollar empire—the very man who built the success she claimed as her own. Now, the woman who threw him away will have front-row seats to the rise of the man she never deserved.

Kenan wanted to escape his past. Kate wanted a future she could control. On their wedding day, both are ripped away. Exposed by betrayal before their vows are sealed, their marriage fractures in front of everyone they know. Before accusations can be answered, before forgiveness or fury can settle—explosions tear through the church, and the world ends. They awaken in a cursed forest world called Horta. The trees have faces. The ground bleeds corruption. And a cold, impartial System informs them of a simple truth: They are the last heroes. Every other world has failed. Every other chosen has died. Their faces now grow in the bark of the forest that devoured them. Kenan and Kate are given a single clearing and a dying pylon. A fragile foothold in a world already lost. Cultivate it. Defend it. Expand it. Or humanity disappears with them. Waves of monsters crash against their shrinking sanctuary. Each victory buys them meters of safety. Each failure tightens the forest’s grip. What begins as a blood-soaked clearing must become a refuge. What becomes a refuge must grow into something capable of sustaining the last survivors of Earth. But survival demands more than strength. Kenan hides a violent truth from the life he tried to abandon. Kate refuses to trust the man who betrayed her. They must fight side by side while their marriage rots between them. Base by base. Wave by wave. Meter by meter. They will carve light out of corruption. They will turn wilderness into a stronghold. They will cultivate a dead world into humanity’s final hope. If they don’t destroy each other first. A dark system-apocalypse story blending base building, relentless base defense, psychological survival, and a fractured romance forced to endure the end of everything.

She thought she was using him. He'd been searching for her for twelve years. "Listen carefully," Diana Morrison's voice cuts through the study like ice. "These are the terms of our marriage arrangement, and they are non-negotiable." Marcus Hayes sits across from her in his worn suit, agreeing to every humiliating condition without protest. Separate bedrooms. No physical contact. Divorce after one year. "Do you have any backbone at all?" Diana demands, frustrated by his compliance. What she doesn't know: Marcus is the Supreme God of War of West America, commander of armies, controller of trillion-dollar empires. Twelve years ago, a starving orphan boy received kindness from a young girl who shared her meager lunch. He never forgot her. Now that girl stands before him—cold, calculating, believing she's trapped a desperate nobody in a fake marriage to escape her family's control. "Perhaps I am desperate," Marcus admits softly. "But not in the way you think." When the Romano and Bennett families attack, when her business crumbles, when assassins lurk in shadows—Marcus moves like the warrior he is, leaving enemies broken and allies in awe. "Who are you?" Diana whispers, watching him dismantle threats with surgical precision. Marcus's slight smile holds secrets that could reshape nations. "I'm your husband." She thought their contract marriage had an expiration date. She has no idea the Supreme God of War never lets go of what's his. He spent twelve years building an empire to be worthy of protecting her. Now he'll spend a lifetime proving she was always meant to be his.

The city calls him “nobody.” On paper, he’s just a broke young man with nothing but scars and a bad attitude. But in the shadows, Caden Pierce is the Septamillionaire Heir—the ruthless King of the Underworld. His enemies fear him. The elite don’t even know he exists… yet. After ten years of brutal training, Caden’s ready to tear his enemies apart and claim everything that’s his. When the spoiled heiress Vivian Montgomery is thrown into his arms—literally—he gets a taste of power, privilege, and the poison of high society. She calls him a “nobody.” Her circle mocks him. They have no idea he owns the ground they walk on. “You think money makes you untouchable?” Caden smirks, stepping over his latest rival. “Sweetheart, I buy men like you for sport and toss them out with yesterday’s trash.” But when the old-money dynasties scheme to bury him, and gunmen storm the club with Vivian in their sights, Caden doesn’t blink. “Let’s get something straight,” he growls, shoving a pistol under the lead thug’s chin. “You came for a princess. You found the king.” Enemies want his head. Socialites want his wallet. And Vivian—she wants him gone. But Caden Pierce didn’t survive hell to bow to anyone. He’s got seven million reasons to settle old scores. And one savage promise: this city will remember his name. Buckle up. The king is back—and he’s done playing nice.
