Edward Blake

I Made A Deal With A Billionaire

She witnessed a murder, he offered a deal. Now they’re both in too deep. Adopted into a wealthy family, Hailey Monroe spent her life trying to earn love in a home that treated her like a burden. Overshadowed by her perfect adoptive sister, Kaira, Hailey agreed to an arranged marriage just to please her family—only to be betrayed in the cruelest way. When Kaira sleeps with Hailey’s husband, Blake, and he throws both Hailey and their son out of the house, her world shatters. Desperate and broke, Hailey becomes a stripper to afford her son’s sudden medical treatments. But everything spirals when she witnesses a murder during one night she was meant to entertain a client—turning her into a target that needed to be eliminated. Rejected again by her family, Hailey stumbles into the path of a stranger after almost being hit by his car, Killian Valtieri, a cold-hearted billionaire desperate for a partner so as to inherit his family’s empire. “Marry me and I’ll protect you,” he offers. Left with no choice, she agrees. But the deal was only the beginning. As enemies close in and buried secrets rise to the surface, Hailey uncovers the shocking truth about her birth—and just how far her enemies are willing to go. However when something more tragic happens, she makes sure everyone pays. And Killian? He may just lose everything to the woman he once thought was disposable. Excerpt; “Give me one more chance, and I promise to treat you right this time,” Blake pleaded while Hailey stared at him in shock. “Come back to me, Hailey. I love you—“ “You don’t!” Hailey snapped. “You just hate the thought of me being happy with Killian. After what you did, how you treated me, you never thought that I would be able to stand back on my feet, did you?” Blake gritted his teeth, unable to deny Hailey was right. “I’m happy with Killian, and I believe you deserve to be with Kaira.” Hailey gave him one last regarding look before she turned to leave but Blake stopped her. “If you can’t be mine…” Hailey halted. “…I won’t let you return to him.” Hailey turned to look at him, and her eyes widened at the gun pointed at her. Before she could say nothing, a bang echoed.

Gene System

Blake is a young man who has had to suffer through devastation over and over again losing more than just an arm. With no power of his own he could barely stand a chance against others or even be deemed useful by the military. All he can do is accept his sister's help bitterly knowing he can't return it to the same effect. After a series of events a meeting with near death shocks him to his very core changing his life forever. Awakening a hidden element buried deep within his genetic code. The Gene System, an advanced complex genetic technology used to expand and improve the overall potential and direction of evolution for the user's genetic code naturally mapping out and directing where the user should go with the growth they obtain. Not much else is known, only that few on every planet are given one through unknown means. The current state of the world is racked with unbridled chaos as the military fruitless attempts to stop the atrocities committed by the organisation known as the Gene hunters. Seeking to steal and splice any genetic data they can get their hands on by whatever psychotic means whether it be dissection, slow harvesting or cloning ethics are not a concern. Hundreds of thousands have been affected by the gene hunters including Blake's family. Some are never seen again, just used as cows for genetic harvesting over and over again until they dried up never to see their families again. Changes have begun to sprout in the background of earth leading to more and more mysterious events occurring, genetic powers becoming stronger, animals becoming mutated and evolving faster than normal generational lines. All the while in the background an unknown force beyond human comprehension lurks just beyond the veil waiting patiently for the time to run out and indulge in his planet level feast devouring all life in sight. Blake will give his all to overcome these brutal circumstances by whatever means. No matter the pain, suffering or loss he will continue to go forward no matter the cost. Failure isn't a devastation but a stepping stone in his larger goal. In his pursuit to build his strength he wont forget where he came from guarding the weak as someone who grew from that. Seeing the lack of care or acknowledgement to the majority viewed as weak in the military disdain makes him step up as the leader needed to change the structure of this world for the better. In the weak there is strength which Blake knows all too well. His reason to go forward is to become the man he wants to be. The only thing that truly terrifies is the idea of letting it all go, giving up and betraying himself and his potential.

Heir of Primordial Darkness & The Shadow Realm

[DISCONTINUED] Warning: This story isn’t for the faint of heart. The main character is shameless, crude, and unapologetically ruthless. If you want a clean-cut hero who plays by the rules, this isn’t your tale. But if you crave raw power, dark humor, and the rise of a forgotten legacy—buckle up. Blake Orpheus never knew who he truly was. Raised in hardship and instinct, he had no idea his bloodline was anything but ordinary—until the truth was ripped from the shadows. He is the son of Erebos, the Primordial God of Darkness. That revelation wasn’t salvation. It was a curse. In a world ruled by Great Houses, divine cultivators, and ancient politics, Blake becomes a target. His ancestral House—Orpheus—was erased from history by those who feared its power.

Some formed secret Great Houses, fighting to survive while hunted by enemies thirsty for their fall. Together with these allies, Blake begins his climb—not for glory, but to unseal his shattered homeworld, reclaim his throne, and reunite with his family. But every step forward is met with resistance. Rivals want him dead. Ancient forces seek to erase his bloodline. And power, once gained, is never without consequence. To survive, Blake must embrace his dark heritage, grow stronger, smarter, and more ruthless than those who hunt him. He fights dirty. He talks back. He’s fiercely loyal and utterly unrelenting.

Transmigrated into a Manhwa! ?

Edward Blake never imagined that death would be the least of his worries. When a tragic accident thrusts him into the pages of Obsidian Chronicles, a manhwa he barely remembered reading, he wakes up as Edward Arclight, the disgraced Duke of a crumbling estate in the mighty Aurelis Empire. Once a powerful family that shaped the empire’s history, the Arclights now hold nothing but a hollow title and a barren land plagued by unrest and debt. The world Edward finds himself in is one of magic intertwined with relics of advanced technology. After an apocalypse a thousand years ago shattered civilization, humanity rebuilt from the ashes, blending ancient tech with powerful magic to forge kingdoms and empires. Yet this fragile society now faces a growing threat—the return of the Demon King, a malevolent being sealed away by ancient heroes during the apocalypse but never truly defeated. Edward’s headache intensifies when he realizes the manhwa’s destined protagonist—the hero meant to lead the charge against the Demon King—doesn’t exist in this version of the story. With no chosen savior and no script to follow, Edward is left with one horrifying conclusion: the responsibility to save the world might fall to him. But Edward Arclight is a duke in name only, and his people, bitter and downtrodden, see him as a symbol of failure. With dwindling resources, fractured alliances, and a land teetering on rebellion, Edward must rise from obscurity to rebuild the legacy of his house. Along the way, he discovers hidden truths about the apocalypse, the origins of the Demon King, and the mysterious artifacts of magic and technology that could hold the key to saving—or dooming—the world. Caught in a web of political intrigue, ancient prophecies, and the looming shadow of annihilation, Edward must rally reluctant allies, outwit his enemies, and awaken the power hidden within his family’s forgotten heritage. In a world where magic and technology collide and destiny has been thrown into chaos, the forgotten duke must rewrite his own fate and face the ultimate question: Can a side character defy fate and become a hero?
