Poki – Built From Nothing

aadil_5439
Poki is twenty-three years old, homeless, uneducated, and unwanted. He sleeps in an abandoned warehouse, survives on scraps, and is known on the streets by a single word—nithalla. Useless. No family. No safety net. No talent handed to him by fate. The city ignores him. People mock him. Life keeps pushing him closer to the edge of nothing. But one stormy night, soaked in rain and self-hatred, Poki makes a dangerous decision—not to die, but to fight back against the world that erased him. With no money, no connections, and no miracles waiting, he chooses obsession over comfort and discipline over numbness. This is not a story of luck. There is no system. No shortcut. No sudden success. Only hunger, failure, isolation, and a slow, brutal transformation. As Poki claws his way up from absolute zero, he learns skills, breaks habits, and reshapes his mind—while battling doubt, relapse, and the weight of being alone. Every step forward costs him something. Every mistake threatens to drag him back into nothingness. ZERO NAME is a dark, realistic rise-of-a-nobody story about what happens when a man with nothing left decides to become someone the world cannot ignore. Because a man with nothing to lose is the most dangerous kind of man. ---

The Secretary's Shadow

Maya Adeniyi is a "shadow." Working out of a crowded bullpen in a Lagos high-rise, she is the secret architect behind the success of Sterling Transport. She possesses a surgical mind for data and a genius for corporate strategy, but none of it carries her name. Instead, her demanding boss, Juliana Vane, takes the credit, the bonuses, and the glory, while Maya stays invisible to keep her paycheck and support her younger sisters. ​For Maya, invisibility is a survival tactic—until the system breaks. ​When a high-stakes maritime crisis strands forty-two freight vessels in the North Sea, the company’s automated logic fails, and the senior directors are paralyzed. But deep within the company's digital audit logs, a pattern emerges that catches the eye of the man on the 89th floor. ​Marcus Sterling, the enigmatic and cold CEO, doesn't care about hierarchy; he cares about precision. He recognizes a "ghost" in the data—a mind operating at a level far above the executives in the boardroom. ​Pulled from the safety of her cubicle and summoned to the untouchable heights of executive power, Maya is given a single, impossible command: Solve it. ​Now, Maya must decide if she is ready to trade her anonymity for influence. To save the company, she must present a radical, high-risk solution that will expose her boss’s incompetence and put a target on her own back. In a world where power is stolen and genius is hidden, Maya is about to find out what happens when the shadow finally steps into the light.
