Jessy Grey, known as Smelly, is an orphan who works fish markets by dawn and waits tables by dusk, and is desperate to keep his sister alive.
When a mysterious billionaire drags him into a deadly job trial, Jessy finds himself in a brutal cage where each mission could be his last.
Just one kid versus a world that won’t give him a break… but every underdog has a breaking point.
This is real.
This is raw.
This is Jessy’s fight.
Yo! Newbie author reporting for duty. This is my very first novel, so yeah… I expected a few “ouch” comments. But hey, if you’re into real-world action with zero dragons, magic systems, or isekai portals… You’re in the right place. Just raw, emotional, sometimes messy intensity. I’m updating once a day (currently having finals going on), but after that expect more heat. Thanks for reading, laughing, cringing, or whatever reaction you had. 😹 It means a lot <3 Stick around, Jessy’s just getting started.
