Introduction
Doesn't this all sound like Cinderella's story?
But I'm no pushover Cinderella—I'm the Hacker Queen who returned from hell, lurking in the shadows!
I'll use my skills to uncover the secret behind my father's disappearance, crush my stepmother's schemes, and expose the truth lurking in the shadows.
“Can't you really feel my love for you?”
I only meant to use this wealthy gentleman's influence to aid my revenge, but I accidentally hacked into his heart!
What about me? Has my heart already been hacked too?
Chapter 1
The air conditioning blasted through the terminal, cutting through the antiseptic scent that hung in the recycled air as travelers streamed past in endless waves.
Sophia Bennett sank into one of the plush cream-colored chairs in the VIP waiting area, her slender legs dangling above the floor, swinging lazily back and forth in faded canvas sneakers.
She popped a bubble of pink gum with a sharp crack before sucking it back into her mouth, her cheek bulging slightly with the effort. Her delicate, doll-like features remained expressionless as she focused intently on the privacy-screened laptop balanced on her thighs, fingers flying across the keyboard with lightning speed, leaving nothing but a blur in their wake.
The screen's blue glow cast eerie shadows across her face as an encrypted chat window blinked in the corner, messages appearing in rapid succession.
Agent A: [Boss, landed safely?]
Sophia: [Yes.]
Agent A: [Boss, Virensia is complicated territory. Please be careful.]
Sophia: [I'm coming home. What's there to worry about?]
With an impatient tap of the Enter key, the chat window vanished, leaving nothing but cascading lines of complex code streaming down her screen.
A few feet away, Henry Caldwell ended a phone call, his expression betraying both the fatigue of long-distance travel and the irritation of unexpected delays. He pinched the bridge of his nose with one hand while checking a message from his assistant with the other.
It read: [Mr. Caldwell, I apologize for the delay. Traffic is terrible.]
Henry exhaled silently, darkening his phone screen before scanning the crowded waiting area. His gaze swept across rows of seats before settling on the small figure curled up in one of the armchairs, conspicuously out of place among the business travelers.
An oversized hoodie nearly swallowed her whole, revealing only an unnervingly youthful face and hands that danced across the keyboard with suspicious proficiency. Something about the incongruity caught his attention.
He needed somewhere to sit and handle his emails. Looking around, the only available seat was next to the "girl." He strode over, his tailored gray suit pants accentuating his long, powerful legs, his presence carrying the quiet authority of a seasoned executive.
The seat cushion dipped slightly under his weight.
Sophia didn't even flick a glance his way. She was locked in battle with the final firewall, her finger hovering over the Enter key.
The encrypted window flashed again.
Agent B: [Boss, this data's impossible to crack. What should we do?]
Henry's voice broke through, measured and politely tentative. "Excuse me."
Without turning, Sophia tapped the Enter key, instantly dissolving the firewall. She typed a response: [Useless idiots.]
His deep voice continued. "My laptop's out of battery and my charger is in my checked luggage. Could I possibly borrow yours?"
Sophia finally turned her head with deliberate slowness.
Henry sat back in his chair, his tie loosened just enough to reveal his Adam's apple. His strong brow, defined jawline, and the fine lines at the corners of his eyes spoke of experience and authority, currently furrowed in a questioning look as his gaze met hers.
Sophia's unnervingly clear eyes—almost artificial in their emptiness—rested on his face for less than a second before precisely scanning the model number on his laptop's casing.
Then, without a flicker of interest, she turned back to her screen as if he were merely part of the furniture.
The air between them stagnated for two beats.
Henry's frown deepened. He assumed the "girl" must be deaf-mute.
Suddenly, Sophia's pale fingers erupted into a frenzy across the keyboard, moving with dizzying speed.
On her privacy screen, visible only to her, complex command lines assembled, injected, and executed as if alive.
The screen darkened, leaving only a deep blue command prompt with a frantically blinking cursor.
Three seconds!
No more than three seconds!
Her pinky finger struck the Enter key with surgical precision, the motion as clean as severing a thread.
Almost simultaneously, the battery icon in the corner of Henry's laptop—which had been gray and lifeless—suddenly jumped to life!
A green lightning bolt symbol illuminated.
The clear text appeared: [Charging].
Henry stared at the change on his screen, his pupils contracting sharply.
He jerked his head up to look at the seemingly harmless "girl" beside him.
Sophia snapped her laptop shut with a crisp click. The gesture wasn't dramatic, but it carried the unmistakable finality of "mission accomplished, conversation over."
She turned toward him, those crystalline eyes boring directly into his. The pink bubble gum pushed against her cheek, creating a small bulge.
On her face, it should have looked cute, but her gaze was cold enough to freeze the air between them.
"You've been staring at me for ages..." she began, her voice sweet and youthful but delivered with the flat affect of someone reciting computer code. "And that's the best pickup line you could come up with?"
Without giving him time to react, question, or thank her, Sophia had already grabbed her deceptively lightweight black backpack, slung it over one shoulder with the practiced efficiency of someone with tactical training.
She walked toward the exit without looking back, her canvas shoes padding across the polished tiles with feline grace.
Henry remained frozen, his Adam's apple bobbing involuntarily.
The girl's eyes—that detached, all-knowing coldness—had sent an unexpected chill through this battle-hardened business mogul.
His gaze dropped back to his laptop screen.
The green charging icon glowed steadily.
But somehow, a pure black warning window had appeared dead center on his screen—no title bar, no close button, utterly dominating the display.
A single line of glowing white text appeared with brutal simplicity: [Next time, be more careful. Otherwise, it won't just be the airport's wireless charging system that gets hacked.]
Sophia hadn't gone far from the airport before ducking into a flagship luxury boutique.
A blast of air conditioning hit her, along with the unmistakable scent of expensive leather and signature fragrance.
She moved with purpose directly to a display case, her slender finger tapping on a uniquely designed black chain bag tucked in the corner.
"This one. I'd like to see it," she said.
Before the words had fully left her mouth, a hand with garish pink nail polish pressed down on the bag.
"I'll take this one!" The voice was artificially honeyed, dripping with entitlement.
Sophia looked up.
A young woman in this season's designer dress with immaculate makeup was eyeing her with undisguised contempt—taking in Sophia's student-like attire with a dismissive once-over that clearly questioned her ability to afford anything in the store.
The woman was Susan Simmons, girlfriend to Thomas Caldwell, Henry's younger brother. A D-list celebrity with an arrogance that far outstripped her fame, Susan harbored opportunistic designs on both Caldwell brothers.
"I saw it first," Sophia stated flatly, her voice devoid of emotion.
"Oh, and that means it's yours?" Susan let out a derisive laugh as if Sophia had told the most absurd joke. Her manicured fingers rapped sharply against the glass counter. "Manager! Wrap this up for me. I'm taking it!"

The Hunter and The Hunted
Mihai’s hand slowly slides up my stomach, his fingers wrapping around my neck as he cuts of my ability to breathe, black spots clouding my vision, and yet, I am not afraid. I want more. I want everything that he can give to me.
He slowly inserts a third finger, the intense fullness that I feel teetering me over the edge of a cliff I cannot even see, and then he sucks and pulls at my clit. Sparks erupt throughout my body, the orgasm shaking my soul, and destroying what was left of my resistance.
She was the Daughter of a Hunter, he was one of the creatures that her family had sworn to destroy, what could possibly go wrong?
When their worlds collide, who will be left standing, will it be the hunter or the hunted, and which is which?
The Game of Claiming
A drunken bet becomes their private game: win the maid.
The rules?
Don’t let the others know you’re falling for her.
And never, ever let her leave.
But each brother plays differently—

The second steals her breath.
The third corners her in the dark.
The youngest ruins anyone who touches her.
Lila isn’t sure if she’s a player in their game… or the prize they’ll destroy each other to claim
Falling for my boyfriend's Navy brother

Why does being near him make my skin feel too tight, like I’m wearing a sweater two sizes too small?
It’s just newness, I tell myself firmly.
He’s my boyfirend’s brother.
This is Tyler’s family.
I’m not going to let one cold stare undo that.
**
As a ballet dancer, My life looks perfect—scholarship, starring role, sweet boyfriend Tyler. Until Tyler shows his true colors and his older brother, Asher, comes home.
Asher is a Navy veteran with battle scars and zero patience. He calls me "princess" like it's an insult. I can't stand him.

**
I hate girls like her.
Entitled.
Delicate.
And still—
Still.
The image of her standing in the doorway, clutching her cardigan tighter around her narrow shoulders, trying to smile through the awkwardness, won’t leave me.
Neither does the memory of Tyler. Leaving her here without a second thought.
I shouldn’t care.
I don’t care.
It’s not my problem if Tyler’s an idiot.
It’s not my business if some spoiled little princess has to walk home in the dark.
I’m not here to rescue anyone.
Especially not her.
Especially not someone like her.
She’s not my problem.
And I’ll make damn sure she never becomes one.
But when my eyes fell on her lips, I wanted her to be mine.
Alpha VS Omega' Twin VS Twin (A Dark Werewolf Romance)
Stripped of everything, Callum is thrown into the Rookeries, where packless wolves go to die. But he survives. He builds a pack from the broken and the damned. He falls in love with Valentina, a dhampir hunted by the same vampire Parliament that destroyed his life.
In a city ruled by immortal aristocrats and controlled by ancient dragons, Callum learns the hardest truth: individual virtue cannot defeat systemic evil. But small victories matter. And some fights are worth losing everything
From Sacrificed Slave to the Dragon King's Obsession
His fangs glinted as he gripped my chin, forcing me to meet his gaze. Dragon scales shimmered along his neck, breath scorching my skin.
"Your Majesty... I beg—" He shoved me onto the bed. Silk tore with a sharp rip, cold air rushing over my exposed body.
"Scared?" He smirked, palm sliding down my waist, fingers tracing slow, burning circles. "Yet you shiver... not from cold."
I lunged for the candlestick, but he caught my wrist, pinning it overhead. His knee forced my legs apart.
"When your father gave you to me," his lips brushed my ear, voice a dark rumble, "you were already mine."
On the eve of freedom after ten years of servitude, Lina Valeria stood one night away from reuniting with her betrothed. But Dragon King Augustus condemned her to the Abyss Mines on false charges—a trap forged from obsessive desire.
Augustus Ashenwing, Supreme Sovereign of Skyhold Citadel, is ruthless and feared by all races. His obsession stems from ancient grudges and dragonkind's most dangerous instinct: possessive desire. He demands her submission, binding her to his throne as his consort.
From prisoner to queen, Lina battles him through court intrigue and twisted passion—fighting for her mother, her freedom, her dignity.
Yet this cold-blooded tyrant reserves all tenderness for her alone. He indulges her temper, bends his pride, compromises without limit—anything to see her smile. Gradually, her heart wavers. But loving him means betraying Kain, who waited eleven years. Torn between duty and desire, she drowns in agonizing guilt.
Love and hatred intertwined—a forbidden dragon romance in a realm of oppression.
HER ALPHA, HER SAVIOUR
Kane Hellboud, charm and wealth personified, wanted only me in exchange for her treatment. No cameras, isolation, or noose-like rules were part of the deal. Behind his smile? Cold, violent possessiveness that destroyed our fake marriage.
Most of all, I didn’t know the supernatural walked among us, hiding in the cracks of ordinary life. Not until Abel Stone stepped into mine—dark-eyed, sharp-tongued, and oozing dangerous promises. He’s my new boss. He shouldn’t make my skin tingle or my pulse race. I shouldn’t feel this primal pull, this illogical recognition that tugs at something deep in my bones.
Around him, lights burst, electronics fry, and something ancient in me awakens.
Kane feels it. His grip tightens, punishments turn brutal, and he hides the truth of what I am.
Trapped between two powerful men, I’m no prey, no pawn—no helpless victim.
Prisons burn. Monsters bleed. As for me? I'm the storm in skin—deadly beyond suspicion.
Rise of the Banished She-Wolf
That roar stole my eighteenth birthday and shattered my world. My first shift should have been glory—blood turned blessing into shame. By dawn they'd branded me "cursed": cast out by my pack, abandoned by family, stripped of my nature. My father didn't defend me—he sent me to a forsaken island where wolfless outcasts were forged into weapons, forced to kill each other until only one could leave.
On that island I learned the darkest edges of humanity and how to bury terror in bone. Countless times I wanted to surrender—dive into the waves and never surface—but the accusing faces that haunted my dreams pushed me back toward something colder than survival: revenge. I escaped, and for three years I hid among humans, collecting secrets, learning to move like a shadow, sharpening patience into precision—becoming a blade.
Then, under a full moon, I touched a bleeding stranger—and my wolf returned with a violence that made me whole. Who was he? Why could he wake what I'd thought dead?
One thing I know: now is the time.
I have waited three years for this. I will make everyone who destroyed me pay—and take back everything that was stolen from me.
The Deadly Mafia Princess
Her gang take the matter in their own hands, to try to save their leader from the horror of her home. What none of them know, they wasn’t her real parents, and now Ro will be sent away to live with her real family. That makes her closest members in her gang pack up and move as well. They don’t want to be far away from their leader.
The CEO's Unspoken Love
Before I could answer, he moved closer, suddenly looming over me, his face inches from mine. I felt my breath caught, my lips parting in surprise.
"Then this is the price for speaking ill of me to others," he murmured, nipping my lower lip before claiming my mouth in a real kiss. It began as punishment but quickly transformed into something else entirely as I responded, my initial rigidity melting into compliance, then active participation.
My breathing accelerated, small sounds escaping my throat as he explored my body. His touches were both punishment and pleasure, drawing shudders from me that I thought he felt reverberating through his own body.
My nightgown had ridden up, his hands discovering more of mine with each caress. We were both lost in sensation, rational thought receding with each passing second...
Three years ago, to fulfill the wish of his grandmother, I was forced to marry Derek Wells, the second son of the family that had adopted me for ten years. He didn't love me, but I had secretly loved him all along.
Now, the three-year contractual marriage is about to end, but I feel that some kind of sentiment has developed between Derek and me that neither of us is willing to admit. I'm not sure if my feelings are right, but I know that we can't resist each other physically...
Lightborn: The Demon’s Bond
The Dragon's Last Fae Queen
“Prince? Dickhead? Asshole? Or stalker?” A slow, dangerous smile curved his lips. “Maybe I should show you the one title I want you to use.” Before I could react, his hand closed around my chin, tilting my face up. His lips crashed into mine, hard, claiming, breath-stealing. When he finally pulled back, his voice was a rough whisper against my lips. “You could call me yours… because you are mine.”
Vengeance of the Forsaken Luna
"Bella." Ethan's tone shifted, taking on that warning edge I knew too well. "Faye is vulnerable right now. She's terrified you'll resent her, that this will divide the pack. The last thing she wants is for this baby to come between us."
"Then you shouldn't have done it." I met his eyes squarely, letting him see the ice in mine. "Go back to your son."
"For fuck's sake." He dragged a hand through his hair. "How many times—it was artificial insemination. They used my sperm, yes, but Faye and I never—"
Bella let out a cold snort. Such brazen lies. Her mate had an affair with his brother's partner, and his entire family helped force her out with nothing, all to make way for the mistress to take her rightful position. Poor fool—he thought she was just an unwanted adopted daughter, easy to dismiss and control. He never knew the computer genius he'd been searching for was his own Luna.
Since he'd tainted himself, Bella was done. She rejected him and reclaimed what was hers, rising to the top with help from Victor, who'd been secretly in love with her for years.
When Ethan tried winning her back: "You don't want our child growing up fatherless."
Bella smiled mockingly. "The child's father isn't you."
