The Ghost In The Ring

In the wake of tragedy, Jack Hayes struggles to cope with the devastating loss of his younger brother, Ethan "The Viper" Hayes, who dies in a brutal MMA fight against the reigning state champion, Rico "The Beast" Martinez. While the match is ruled an accident, Jack is haunted by the belief that foul play led to Ethan's untimely death. Consumed by grief and anger, he grapples with feelings of helplessness and guilt. In his search for closure, Jack decides to enter the world of MMA—not for revenge, but to find peace and honor Ethan's memory. Under the mentorship of Lena, a seasoned fighter with her own troubled past, Jack begins a grueling training regimen that tests his physical and mental limits. As he fights through local circuits, he discovers the camaraderie and resilience of fellow fighters, all of whom share their own struggles and stories of loss. As Jack rises through the ranks, he adopts the persona of "The Ghost," channeling his brother's spirit and seeking to transform his pain into strength. But as he gains recognition, the specter of Rico looms larger, culminating in a high-stakes tournament that could earn Jack the chance to face the man he holds responsible for Ethan’s death. In the climactic battle, Jack confronts not just Rico, but the internal demons that have plagued him since the tragedy. As he fights for redemption, he learns that true strength lies in embracing the past and that finding peace is a journey, not a destination. "The Ghost of the Ring" is a powerful tale of grief, resilience, and the transformative power of sport, exploring the delicate balance between revenge and healing in the unforgiving world of mixed martial arts.

Les histoires horribles de l'Era Nocturna Vol 1 : L'épopée de Karnen

"Il y a bien longtemps, il n'y avait rien... Que les ténèbres et le néant. Arnon décida de créer la lumière pour créer la vie et plus principalement l'homme comme être conscient sous cette lumière. Mais Gridlock, le dieu des ténèbres et du néant se réveilla du fait de cette lumière et jaloux voulut créer aussi ses propres enfants dans le monde du néant et de la nuit, mais petit à petit la lumière gagnait l'univers et les créatures de Gridlock disparaissaient détruites par la lumière. Gridlock voulut par la ruse demander a Arnon d'enlever certaines étoiles, planètes, astres afin que ces enfants , qui avaient pris forme humaine pour séduire le Dieu, puissent vivre en paix et en harmonie avec la progéniture d'Arnon. Arnon trop sage et bon accepta sa demande et la terre fut donc privée de toute lumière proche et les premiers hommes apparurent dans le néant infini sans rien voir et devenant fou puis surtout devenant des proies des enfants de Gridlock. Arnon n'avait pas le temps de recréer les astres apportant la lumière a tant avant que les hommes primitifs disparaissent donc il a offert une étincelle de lumière : le feu. Par le feu, les premiers hommes purent se défendre contre les créatures de la nuit en s'en servant comme armes et moyens de créer des frontières près de leurs logis, mais petit à petit le feu se fit plus rare du fait d'un usage trop excessif et des aléas du temps et les créatures de Gridlock revinrent. Gridlock rendit par la peur et la violence le cœur de l'homme mauvais, il y eut des guerres pour cette ressource et l'homme brûla le monde et sacrifia la nature pour tuer à tout prix tous les enfants de ce mauvais dieu. Ces brasiers mondiaux éradiquèrent pratiquement les deux camps. Arnon a, pendant ce temps, réussi à créer un pouvoir de lumière dans un astre : le soleil pour éclairer ce monde. Face à une défaite imminente, Gridlock, malin, décide de négocier en tournant l'esprit de certains humains qui avaient perdu des proches pris par les forces des ténèbres. Il leur promit que leurs proches damnés ne seraient pas détruits entièrement et pourraient continuer à vivre auprès d'eux même être guérie s'ils pouvaient encore vivre loin de la lumière dans un temps sans l'astre d'Arnon appelé Nuit. Arnon, entraîné par les plaintes des hommes, décida de créer un cycle nommé jour et nuit pour les deux camps, mais encore une fois, il fut trompé par Gridlock, car la durée de ces cycles ne fut jamais actée. Des jours durèrent des semaines et des nuits des mois. Durant les périodes de lumière, les hommes pouvaient prospérer et vivre, mais quand l'era nocturna ou la nuit de Gridlock arrivait, il devait se barricader et survivre face aux monstres de la nuit, enfant de ce dieu terrible. Ainsi, il en est et ainsi, il en sera quand reviendra sur ce monde l'era Nocturna."

Draymond is the CEO of Martinez Corporation and the legendary mafia don of the ‘Jade Dragon Triad.’ Living in seclusion, he often grapples with inner turmoil when his OCD takes control. His mother’s tragic and untimely passing drove him to find justice for her. Suddenly, a deadly ambush pushed him to the edge of death. Just when all hope seemed lost, fate intervened, and Zarina Celesti Vasquez, a renowned fashion designer, came as his savior. *** “Marry me, Zarina,” he begged, desperation in his eyes. He instantly regretted his boldness, muttering, “I think I’m becoming straightforward.” Zarina blinked rapidly, her eyes widening, and she stood with her hands on her hips. “No way. I don’t want to marry a man who sees marriage as just another business venture.” She turned her back to him and flipped her long black hair, making her rejection crystal clear. Draymond cleared his throat, attempting to persuade her. “I need a wife,” he stated seriously. Zarina burst into laughter, finding the situation absurd. “Mr. Martinez, I think you need a psychologist to check your brain because it seems you’re struggling to understand my simple condition.” Feeling insulted, Draymond clenched his teeth. “I’ll pay you a substantial amount for this business marriage, and I’ll be a great husband who will warm your bed every night!”
