the corporate treason

Expelled, framed by corrupt politicians, and disowned by his family at just thirteen, prodigy engineer Aaron Zakhrov refused to play the victim. Instead, he channeled his cold intellect, uncompromising discipline, and unapologetic fixation on classical power and control into building an empire. Starting with a viral, boundary-pushing indie visual novel that nets him millions overnight, Aaron transforms a condemned lead mine into an impenetrable industrial fortress. Armed with cutting-edge automated robotics, rogue modular nuclear reactors, and high-tech combat gear disguised as ultra-chic corporate tailoring, he builds Sirius Software—a sovereign corporate juggernaut operating entirely on his own terms. Joined by a fierce inner circle—including a disavowed ex-operative turned lethal head of security, brilliant collegiate engineers, and high-society allies—Aaron methodically crushes every cartel, corrupt senator, and federal agency that dares stand in his way.

Transcending into the role of antagonists in the cyber game, with a daunting entourage of mesmerizing maidens, is indeed intriguing. However, it is lamentable that they are all mere pawns. The cerebral enchantress, possessing the capability to paralyze entire military forces, is hailed as the uncrowned monarch of the hacker realm. Yet, she falls prey to the protagonist's charm, ultimately succumbing to divulging corporate secrets, tarnishing her erstwhile reputation. As for the dark war deity, whose individual prowess can obliterate a squadron of mechanized warriors, as a mercenary, he bestows upon her the finest arsenal and perks within the conglomerate. Alas, the plot prevails; amidst a crackdown on the protagonist, a mutual affinity emerges between them, culminating in betrayal of the conglomerate in a certain denouement, aiding the protagonist in severing ties with her former self. Such instances abound. To avert a fate of stifling demise, he deliberates meticulously, arriving at a resolute decision. Observing the preparations for the impending assault on the protagonist within the corporate hall, Jonas beckons her into the confines of his office. Amidst the bemused gaze of her counterpart, a delicate collar materializes in his hand. "Miss Dark War Deity, surely you wouldn't want your sister to suffer indignity, would you?"

"Why do you even care?" I fired at him hotly, my glare burning holes into his gorgeous face. It had been all about the passion and toe curling orgasms that he had given me but now, as I stared into his eyes, all I could feel was a need to slap that face. Hard. Annoyed, I threw up my hands into the air. "We are not even in a relationship, for god's sake! So I can f*ck or go out with any man I d*mn please!" Immediately the words left my mouth, I knew at once that I had chosen my words badly. Damien made no overt move, but his eyes went hard and dark. He began to walk towards me and I retreated in alarm, my pulse accelerating. He continued to stalk to my side until he successfully backed me into a wall. He stopped in front of me and placed his hands on either side of my head, caging me in. His head came down until he was staring into my eyes. "That's where you've got it all wrong, bunny," he murmured, his voice a low, velvety timbre sending jolts of arousal to my loins. "You are mine, you always have been. Make no mistake about that." *** Do I have a job that I love so much? Yes. Do I have a rude, grumpy boss who makes my blood boil and makes me plot ways to kill him and make it look like an accident? Abso-f*ck*ng-lutely! That was me until one misaddressed email came to disrupt everything I have worked for. And then I had to do a favor for the grumpy boss. My name is Cheryl Chastain and I am totally screwed.

Blood on his hands. Fire in his veins. And a voice in his head whispering a single word: [REVENGE]. The night Miles Vane was attacked, the Echo Protocol awoke – a secret power fused to his very soul, turning a quiet nobody into a living weapon. His parents were murdered by Silas Cross, the untouchable king of the city. Now Miles walks two lives: Homework by day. Hit lists by night. Each fight drags him deeper into the blood-soaked war he never asked for. Each kill uncovers more of the truth buried in his past. His only anchor is Clara—the classmate who sees through his mask and refuses to let him vanish into darkness. But when Silas announces a deadly tournament to lure him out, Miles knows exactly what it means. A trap. A slaughterhouse. An invitation. He’s going anyway. Because revenge isn’t justice. It isn’t mercy. It’s the end of everything.

I am far too busy conquering fictional markets to bother with actual ones. No offense is intended. No lawsuits, either. Unless you’re a protagonist. In which case… file away. I'll be waiting—with a better lawyer and a hostile takeover plan. This is fiction. Relax. Or invest. Discord— https://discord.gg/d2V5ydRb9T
