The Bastard Who Claimed My Family

Dev_99
In a world where awakening grants godlike power, Lucas Reed was born a bastard — discarded, powerless, and forgotten. When his father, the influential Guild Master James Vanderbilt, finally drags him into the family, Lucas arrives not as a grateful son, but as a predator with one burning obsession: to claim everything the Vanderbilts possess — their wealth, their status, their women… and most of all, the untouchable S-rank Void Sovereign who now calls herself his stepmother. At Seoul Awakener University, two Mythic-class awakeners emerge from the same bloodline. Alex Vanderbilt, the legitimate golden heir, receives the divine Golden Heir. Lucas awakens the forbidden Heir of the Infernal Dominion, an abyssal force that hungers to corrupt, dominate, and devour. While Alex is shielded by his cold, beautiful mother Evelyn, Lucas begins his quiet, ruthless conquest. He manipulates the academy’s factions, bends powerful women to his will, and turns the university’s brutal hierarchy into his personal chessboard. His ambitions are not limited to power and status — he sets his sights on the ultimate prize: breaking Evelyn Vanderbilt herself, forcing the proud Void Sovereign to submit to the bastard son she despises. In a brutal academy where strength rules and mercy is weakness, Lucas will use seduction, blackmail, and raw power to shatter his stepbrother’s perfect life and claim the one woman who should be forever out of reach. Some desires are forbidden. Some heirs refuse to stay in the shadows. And some taboos were always meant to be broken. *** To read ahead, go to my Patreon. patreon.com/DevilsWhisper Disclaimer: 'The Bastard Who Claimed My Family' is a work of fiction.

Her lover died trying to protect her, and she spent the next five years struggling to survive, until she finally died in the apocalypse. But then, Ivy woke up again, reborn in the first year of the apocalypse. At first, she felt hopeless. If only she had returned to a time before the apocalypse, she could have gathered food, weapons, and supplies to survive better. Still, she was grateful for one thing: she had kept her special ability, the power to create safe zones. This time, Ivy made a promise. She would protect her lover, find her real family, and take revenge on everyone who had hurt her. .................................. "Huh? Why is there a bento box lying here?" Ivy asked, confused. "What bento? Are you trying to trick me again?" Silas asked, sadness in his eyes. "This one!" Ivy said, holding up the packaged meal and waving it at him. "What the... where did that come from?" Silas stared at it in shock. Ivy’s eyes widened. She realized something, only she could see these items, and when she picked them up, they became real. "Can… I buy it from you?" Silas asked, unsure. "Of course. But I won't give it to you for free." Ivy smiled like a fox. Silas closed his eyes; he was ready for her to demand something sky-high and said, "Okay. Tell me how many gold bars you want." Ivy smiled and teased, "I don't want gold bars; they are way too cheap. I want one kiss." Silas: Blushing hard. His subordinates: "..." This wave of dog food was too unexpected! ....................................................... With the supplies, picking a superpower and a safe zone superpower, Ivy built her own residential area. She gained Kindness Energy and multiplied supplies with the help of Temporal Storage. While other bases struggled to make a simple house, she used her golden finger to make luxurious buildings and rent them out, becoming the big shot in the apocalypse.
