Wren sank onto the bed, wincing as pain flared through her ribs. Her muscles felt like they’d been torn apart and stitched back together with barbed wire. But even through the haze of exhaustion and pain, her mind raced.

She wouldn’t survive this place by chance. She had to be smarter, faster, better. And she had to escape before Riven decided her usefulness had run out.

A sharp knock on the door snapped her out of her thoughts. She opened it to find a tall, scarred man with a permanent scowl.

“Work starts now,” he barked, thrusting a thick book into her hands.

She barely caught it, its weight nearly knocking her off balance. The words Rule Book were stamped in bold letters on the cover.

“You’ve got one job,” the man growled, his voice low and dangerous. “Follow the rules. And don’t make me regret letting you live.”

Wren’s grip tightened on the book as the door slammed shut. She swallowed the bile rising in her throat.

This wasn’t survival. This was a game. And if she wa

    She lowered the book, staring down at its bold black cover. “You don’t even know what the hell is in this thing,” she muttered under her breath. Her voice was barely audible, but even that felt too loud in the oppressive silence. She flinched, looking around to make sure no one had noticed. No one seemed to. The workers kept moving, heads down, hands busy. But the eerie quiet still pressed in on her. “Okay, Wren,” she whispered to herself, shifting her weight carefully to ease the ache in her bruised ribs. “Be reasonable. Be smart. You can’t die here. Not now.” Her voice cracked slightly, but she forced herself to keep talking. “Play along. Clean floors. Scrub windows. Whatever they want. Just… stay alive.” The cleaning supplies were crude, old-fashioned brushes and rags tossed into a dented metal bucket. Wren grabbed them quickly, her movements stiff and jerky, and dragged them to the nearest corner. Her knees screamed in protest as she crouched down, running the coarse brush

    His hazel eyes darted around me like a predator meeting its prey, his arms folded as he rested on the wall scanning my body with interest and attention. I swallowed hard, my heart beat was faster than normal and I felt weak in the knees. I could feel his gaze all over my body as the hairs on my body rose up pointily. I literally had goosebumps. He was deadass handsome, even a hundred times better than the pictures and tabloids of him. His physique was gallant and exactly as he was described BUT - he'll be your worst nightmare if you ever cross paths. "What is this Asia? I told you I'm not interested in little virgin girls," He didn't stop looking at my body and then his eyes rested on my chest. He bit his lower lips and scanned me down again "they make too much noise in bed." "Be respectful brother. I told you I was gonna hire you an assistant and here she is" Asia stood next to me, her hands around my shoulder as I stood stiffly in shock. I was so glad she was there with me. Th

    “You’ll be working with GreyCorps on the Jourdan project, Kat. Your transfer has been processed, and you'll be resuming on Monday,” Rowland, her boss, said, passing her a brown envelope. Kat’s heart skipped a beat. “What do you mean, transferring me to GreyCorps?” Her brow shot up as she opened the envelope. Maybe he was high or didn’t know what he was saying. Kat stared at Rowland, his perfectly styled hair and neat appearance somehow making the whole situation feel even more surreal. Rowland blew loose strands of hair from his face and crossed his fingers. He was always meticulous about his appearance—no surprise, considering he was the team leader of the creative and styling unit at one of the biggest fashion companies in the country. “You’ll be working as a creative manager to Levi Grey. Everything you need will be sent to your email, and Gloria will hand you a package,” he added casually. The words hung in the air, heavy and ominous. Levi Grey? Kat’s mind raced. The Levi

    “Hello everyone. My name is Kathleen Murphy, you can call me Kat and I look forward to working with you. I hope to learn from you and get to know you all.” she said with a beaming smile at the people standing in front of her. Their happy smiles as they waved and bowed. “Welcome to GreyCorps, Kat. My name is Susie.” A bubbly redheaded lady said with giggles, handing her a small gift tied with pink ribbons. “Nice to meet you Susie and thank you,” Kat responded, receiving the package with a warm smile. The rest of them took turns welcoming her along with a cute bento cake they made for her. They seemed nice, compared to what the rumors said about them — the workers at GreyCorps. According to the rumors about them, everything was all work. It was as if they were bound to a demonic master who hated happy moments. The previous week had taken an unexpected turn. From Rowland announcing the sudden transfer to finding herself in GreyCorps, the lair of the demon master. The lit

    Kat rushed outside to meet the other members waiting for her. Susie waved at her and she joined them. “I'm so sorry for keeping you waiting. I didn't know when the time went by so fast.” Kat apologized as Susie held her hands. “It's okay. We just got outside too.” The two men with them were lively. You could tell the women had brainwashed them into being a part of their gossip circle. Lee was six feet tall with fine facial features. He looked just like a model, with his athletic body and ripped arms. From the way it looked, he had a big crush on Daya. He was kind of shy and stood close to her. And Matt, the blondie. He was the jester. Two inches shorter than Lee, Matt was the youngest. He wrapped his hands around the women and all of them rushed to the restaurant with smiles. “I'll have steak!” Matt announced. “Who's gonna pay?” Gwen asked and everyone burst into laughter. “We'll treat Kat to our special. The welcome special platter.” Susie said as she held Kat's hand.

    "Fine, I'll live with you." Kat took a deep breath. It was definitely a bad idea -- being close to him, living with him, seeing him every day. She wasn't ready to open the wounds she had tried so hard to heal, to get away from. Freya Jourdan was already demanding a meeting and they hadn't even started work. There were other details that Rowland never mentioned concerning the project. "But for three months, nothing more than that." "This project requires our total dedication and concentration." His eyes rested on hers, causing her to look away immediately and focus on her bag. "We'll talk about this tomorrow." She was careful not to say his name. Except during work, of course, anything aside that meant she was comfortable with him and that was the last thing she wanted. Kat got out of the car before he could even say anything and closed the door. She didn't turn to wave him goodbye. Knowing where she lived was the height of it, they were not friends. Tired and shivering fro

    - Five years ago -Kat beamed with smiles as they walked hand in hand. It was a date with Levi and she couldn't wait to give him the bracelet she had stayed up all night to weave.The clear blue sky was designed with clouds, making it look as if it was a painting. Levi's free hand locked with hers as they walked towards a shade. “What?” Kat asked, her cheeks flushing red and heart fluttering as he looked at her. “Why do you look so beautiful?” he pulled her cheek gently. “I don't know, maybe it's because I'm the most beautiful in the world.” Kat put her hands behind her back, swaying her body back and forth. Levi Grey. The one that captured her heart. How they met was funny. She was a new graduate and working as an intern in HaloTech, a top rated tech company. “Hi,” She waved. “Is that seat taken?”“Hi!” He smiled, his fine dentition accentuating the beauty of his face. “Not at all.” Kat smiled back and went in to sit by the window seat.

    “Hello, ma'am. My name is Guntar, Mr. Levi's personal driver. He asked me to pick you up.” The middle-aged man greeted her warmly, his voice steady and polite. His gray hair, streaked with black, was neatly combed back, adding to his composed demeanor. Kat blinked, caught off guard. “Hi— but...” Before she could finish, her phone buzzed. A message from an unknown number flashed on the screen: Message: The driver will pick you up. Please don't refuse. There was no mistaking who it was. Levi. How did he even know her number? She didn't remember mentioning to him that she would be moving the next day. Guntar stood by the door, his posture respectful, hands clasped behind his back. He looked prepared to wait as long as necessary, his calm eyes watching her with a subtle smile, as if he already knew she would try to say no. Kat glanced back at her phone, her heart quickening. The words felt less like a request and more like a command, wrapped in politeness. Levi’s tone left li

    Hey thought the biggest threat was losing the project…But the real danger was standing right beside them. Kat's return to GreyCorps was supposed to be simple—work alongside Levi, keep Iris at arm’s length, and secure the Jourdan Project. But everything changes the day Mr. Gallagher arrives. One bump in the hallway, one careless "accident," and suddenly Kat finds herself in the middle of something far bigger than she could have imagined. Encrypted files. Stolen passwords. Framed for fraud. Someone is setting Levi up to take the fall, and Kat is the only one who sees the warning signs. But as she begins to dig, the cracks in GreyCorps grow wider. Every corner she turns, Gallagher is there. Watching. Waiting. Smiling. And Iris? She’s not just part of the problem—she is the problem. But proving it won’t be easy. Because when Kat finally unearths the truth, it comes with a price. And it might just cost her the person she’s beginning to fall for. In this tangled web of decepti

    The man's lip twitched, a flash of irritation breaking through his deadly calm. He hated games, and Wren knew it. But she also knew he wasn’t impulsive. He didn’t kill for fun. He killed for purpose. And she had to make herself useful enough to live. “I’ll do anything,” she continued, her voice steadying. “Work for you. Pay it back. Double. Triple. Whatever it takes.” “You?” He laughed, a sound colder than winter frost. “What could you possibly offer me, Servitude? Loyalty? You threw that away the moment you ran. Hard work? You’re pathetic, bleeding on my floor like a mangy dog.” Her heart thundered in her chest, but she held his gaze. “I’m smart. Smarter than anyone you’ve got. And I’ll prove it. Give me a chance, please. Just one chance.” His eyes narrowed, his finger twitching on the trigger. For a moment, she thought he’d pull it, ending everything right there. But then, he stepped back, lowering the gun. “Fine,” he said coldly, his tone laced with menace. “But if you ru

    The air in the shed felt oppressive, heavy with fear and the sharp tang of blood. Wren’s wrists burned where the metal shackles bit into her skin, her every struggle making them dig deeper. Her chest heaved as she fought to breathe past the taste of sweat and copper in her mouth. Bruises painted her arms and legs in shades of deep purple and sickly yellow, and her ribs screamed with every shallow breath she took. A figure stood before her, a shadow of death cloaked in cold cruelty. His eyes were like shards of ice, piercing and merciless, and his lips curled in a sneer that promised nothing but pain. "And if I put a gun to your head, do I become a bad person?" His voice was low, unhurried, like he was savoring the terror in her wide eyes. Wren flinched as the words hit her, each one slicing through the fragile thread of hope she clung to. She could barely see him through the blood matting her hair and dripping into her eyes, but she didn’t need clear vision to feel his rage and

    Kat sat at her desk, staring at the small USB drive in her hand. The weight of it felt much heavier than it should, as if it carried the secrets of the entire Jourdan Project—and possibly something far more dangerous. Her conversation with Levi replayed in her head. His stern warning about Gallagher had rattled her. The idea of losing the project was terrifying enough, but the thought of Levi ending up in prison? That was something she couldn’t live with.She glanced around the office. The place was mostly empty now, except for the faint hum of computers and the occasional shuffle of footsteps from the cleaning crew. Most of her colleagues had already left for the day. It was the perfect opportunity to investigate the mysterious drive Gallagher had slipped into her pocket. Kat took a deep breath, her pulse quickening as she slipped the USB into her laptop bag and walked toward one of the standalone computers in the far corner of the office. It was the only machine not connected to th
