silueta rata

¿Qué hace un troll de internet cuando el mundo se convierte en el videojuego de terror más injugable de la historia? Astrad, un "niño rata" profesional, descubre la respuesta cuando el apocalipsis cancela su conexión a internet y lo obliga a salir de su cuarto. Para su sorpresa, todas las horas "perdidas" en foros y wikis de monstruos son ahora la única guía para no terminar como el almuerzo de una abominación con demasiados dientes. Forzado a salir de su cueva, Astrad no busca salvar a la humanidad, solo a sí mismo y a su perro. Sin embargo, el destino y su propio pragmatismo retorcido lo obligan a liderar a un grupo de supervivientes tan disfuncional como él. Armado con un rifle de aire , un sarcasmo letal y un diario lleno de las debilidades de cada monstruo, deberá navegar un apocalipsis donde la mayor amenaza no siempre tiene garras y colmillos, sino que a veces se esconde en la estupidez humana. Para sobrevivir, no necesitarán un héroe. Necesitarán a un bastardo con un plan.

Mum is out but the door knob starts to turn, It claws its way in as your body starts to burn. The lights flicker and those feet pitter, and all that is left is your empty home...

Elena Marlowe has built her life on precision. At twenty-four, she is the youngest strategist at a powerful investment firm in Manhattan. Composed. Analytical. Unreadable. In a world dominated by ruthless men, she survives by being sharper than they expect and quieter than they notice. She has no room for chaos. Until Adrian Vale notices her. Adrian is the thirty-year-old CEO of Vale Consortium, a corporate empire that moves markets and influences governments. To the public, he is controlled brilliance—disciplined, reserved, untouchable. Behind closed doors, he is something else entirely: a strategist who studies people the way others study numbers. When Elena crosses his path at a high-profile merger gala, Adrian does not see attraction. He sees alignment. He begins observing her—her tells, her silences, the way her composure fractures for half a second when pressured. And slowly, deliberately, he adjusts the world around her. Meetings align. Opportunities shift. Paths cross too often to be coincidence. It is not force. It is design. Elena senses it before she understands it. The way he anticipates her reactions. The way he knows what she needs before she voices it. The way his presence feels like both safety and danger. Their connection builds through intellectual sparring and quiet intensity. No explosive declarations. No dramatic seduction. Just proximity. Pressure. Precision. But when Elena discovers that Adrian orchestrated their initial encounters, the illusion shatters. What she believed was fate was strategy. And yet… she doesn’t walk away. Because the truth is more complicated. Adrian’s control is not cruel. It is calculated protection. His empire is not purely corporate; beneath the polished skyscrapers lies a web of discreet political alliances and shadow negotiations. Enemies watch him closely. And once Elena becomes visible at his side, she becomes a liability. When a rival targets her during a corporate power struggle, Elena is forced to confront the full weight of Adrian’s world. The danger is real. The influence is vast. The power he wields is terrifying. And the most unsettling truth? He would burn everything down for her. But Elena refuses to be someone’s weakness. Choosing independence, she leaves Adrian and builds her own corporate influence. Months later, she returns—not as his subordinate, not as his possession, but as his equal competitor in a hostile acquisition that threatens to destroy them both. This time, she understands the game. And she plays to win. As betrayal fractures Adrian’s inner circle and his empire teeters on collapse, Elena becomes the unexpected architect of its survival. The power dynamic shifts. The strategist becomes vulnerable. The observer becomes exposed. Adrian must confront the truth he has avoided his entire life: Control cannot replace intimacy. And Elena must decide whether love built on strategy can survive without it. In a final confrontation that blends corporate warfare with emotional reckoning, they redefine their relationship—not as possession, not as dominance, but as choice. Because the most dangerous power is not control. It’s surrender.

In a realm of forbidden desires, shadowy intrigues, and steamy midnight rendezvous, Vivienne’s ambition knows no limits. But with enemies closing in and hearts on the line, can she outmaneuver every threat and seize the life she craves? Or will the secrets she’s spun cost her everything—even her newly won freedom?

Perfect for fans of scandalous historical romances and high-stakes intrigue, this story draws you into a world of lavish balls, clandestine affairs, and a heroine who refuses to be tamed—no matter the cost.

Medel got no choice but to submit to letting her mother's adopted younger brother, the 27-year old Chrollo Alcaraz, use her body for pleasure to make money to pay for the car that she trashed severely. Their relationship is bound by sexual pleasure and Medel is fully aware of it, reminding herself always that she should not crave intimacy that is deeper than sexual pleasure, but she falls for her uncle who is zero percent romantic, unknowingly.

Leaving everything behind is a wish that will never be granted, breaking free of chains always has a cost, and blood is the only real currency.
