When a Genius Makes a Mistake

****Completed, but under revision.**** ***SUPER SLOW BURN MATURE 18+*** After struggling her way through university, Mina Harlow, a top tier graduate (and literal genius), with the aspiration of lifting her family out of poverty, was still living in the slums, taking odd jobs to earn a living. All of her hard work had been for nothing and her life is cast into turmoil because she offended the wrong Miss from a prominent family. Desperate to for her next source of income, Mina aligns herself with the wrong people, and finds herself amid several conspiracies that keep becoming more and more confounded by misunderstandings. She is mistaken for a spy, by one of the most influential families in the country and held captive as the confusion, mishaps and misunderstandings build up all around her. Under the extreme circumstance, Mina is thrown into despair, hatred and love all that the same time, but will the experience break her or make her ‘better?’ (This story is set in a fictional, modern day patriarchal society on the brink of a shift public opinion on the 'role' of the woman.) Excerpt: "Why are you crying?" "Because I'm stupid," Mina replied. The man laughed sarcastically. "I disagree. I think you are a very smart girl." "Being smart does not mean you can not be stupid." Who told her she was a genius anyway? ***THIS IS AN ADULT STORY WITH AN ADULT THEME. THERE IS VIOLENCE AND IMPLIED VIOLENCE. THERE IS ROMANCE IN THIS STORY, BUT IT IS NOT EXACTLY A LOVE STORY. ***

Chapter 219: Wary

Zane was standing in his bedroom when he felt the presence of someone behind him. He spun around, but was thrown back and down onto his bed, with a tender hand clasped over his mouth. His eyes widened and he spoke Ellie's name. His words were muffled by the petite digits that still rested on his lips and his chest began to rise and fall rapidly.

"You must be stressed," Ellie said. "I've never been able to sneak up on you like that." Zane shook the woman off his body violently. His lower half had begun to react, and he did not want her to notice. It would be awkward for them both; he assumed.

"How did you get in here?" He asked dumbly. He knew she would never tell him. For some reason she had always liked sneaking up on him and she had even joked in the past that it was because he was an easy target.
