In a world where money is nothing but ones and zeros, who really holds the power? FBI Agent Sarah Chen thought she'd seen it all in her years investigating financial crimes. But when a routine case of Bitcoin fraud explodes into a global conspiracy, she finds herself plunged into a digital underworld beyond her wildest imagination. Teaming up with Jack Roberts, a brilliant but unpredictable crypto expert with a shadowy past, Sarah races against time to unravel a plot that threatens not just the global economy, but the very fabric of reality itself. From the neon-lit streets of Tokyo to the hidden server farms of quantum computers, Sarah and Jack must navigate a treacherous landscape of digital deception, where fortunes can be made or lost with a single keystroke, and identities are as fluid as the blockchain itself. As they delve deeper into the mystery, they uncover a truth more staggering than they ever imagined: a secret society of crypto-anarchists has created a parallel digital universe - the crypto-verse - where the laws of physics and economics are infinitely malleable. With the line between the physical and digital worlds blurring, Sarah must confront not only the enigmatic figure behind it all but also her own role in shaping this new reality. "The Crypto Conspiracy" is a mind-bending techno-thriller that will make you question everything you thought you knew about money, power, and the nature of reality itself. In a world where code is law and reality is just another consensus algorithm, can Sarah and her team rewrite the rules before it's too late? Dive into the blockchain. Unravel the conspiracy. Redefine reality. Your next transaction could change the world.

🥇 1st Place - Best Prologue (Whispers Beneath the Ice mini-awards, 2025) 🥈 2nd Place - Best Writing Style (Enchanted Grave Awards, 2025) 🥈 2nd Place - Best Villain (Starfish Awards, 2025) ⸻ ✧ ⸻ Beneath the earth, the sun is only a memory - and its light is no longer free. The powerful have bottled it, priced it, and called it holy. Every flicker, every breath, must be paid for in Lumen. Lucy Farrow was born in the Gloom, where the air tastes of rust and hope is a dangerous thing. Her mother taught her to keep her glow low - to survive unseen. But when the light inside her begins to stir, Lucy's secret could unravel the order that keeps their divided city alive. High above, in the marble halls of the Halo, Prince Cassian Soleyne uncovers a secret among ink and dust - a forbidden lineage that could unmake the order he was born to protect. His duty is to snuff it out: his heart tells him to save it. As rebellion brews in the dark and doubt kindles in the light, their paths will cross - and together they will awaken a fire long thought dead. A Radiant who could bring back the dawn... or burn the world to ash. ⸻ ✧ ⸻ His guest merely nodded sharply. "Until next time, mister Briar". With that, he turned and marched toward the door - his colleagues followed him close behind. Lucy could hear their footsteps fade away and relief washed over her. As soon as it did, the lanterns of the chandelier rattled softly - the Lumen danced for a split second, as if celebrating. But that was enough. The agents abruptly turned around, having seen the shadows on the floor - slowly, they aimed their emotionless gazes skyward, staring at the chandelier. "Tell me, mister Briar", the captain spoke, his eyes still fixated upon the lamps, "Does your Lumen always malfunction like this?" The Lantern Man tapped with a finger on the desk. "As a matter of fact, sir - yes, it does. It's still an old batch: it flickers all the time. I ought to get it replaced soon".

Interdimensional Pirates- known throughout the dimensions as gangs of trained thieves who travel through worlds to collect magical and valuable artifacts. But to Kota- an 18-year-old recovered criminal, who lives paycheck to paycheck, struggling to survive alone in the city, oblivious to the existence of the other dimensions and artifacts- they were the people who stole his locket, the last thing he had left of his recently deceased grandmother. She was the only person who had ever cared about him, so he was willing to get that locket back, even if it meant stealing it from his sickeningly rich half-brother's vault, becoming a wanted criminal and chasing down pirates to get it. ~ What to expect: ☠️ Slow start, picks up around chapter 5 ☠️ Male MC growth ☠️ Fantasy worlds and cultures ☠️ Mystery, adventure, action, fantasy ☠️ Mature themes of gore, torture, grief and death (trigger warning ⚠️) ☠️ Clean from mature romance themes ☠️ Detailed character descriptions, pages, and photos ☠️Morally grey characters and MC ☠️Original magical concepts, worlds, artifacts, and so on. ☠️Pirates, ships, fighting, portals, maps, treasure hunts, and so on ☠️Hand drawn digital maps ☠️World building glossaries Progress: 63k words Chapter 25 Disclaimer: ⚠️This is the first draft.
