Meet Zoe - at least, that's what she goes by currently - an introverted computer whiz. She has maybe three friends, one of which is a pretty sexy neighbour. Not that she thinks of him that way.

Give her a laptop and she can do anything, the only problem? She'll do anything. And that can lead to trouble. Or being elbow deep in a shitstorm of bullets by unknown parties that want her dead.

But you know what they say, it's best to be calm in a shitstorm. There will be plenty of time to freak out afterwards.

Simple except another assassin turns up for the same target. A tall blonde muscular rival, with the manners of a gentleman, and the soul of a rock hearted butcher. Unfortunately, there is only one target they have both sworn the kill so and only one can leave Archigram alive. Soon lives will change. Hearts will meet. Secrets will be exposed. Treachery will be uncovered. Plots will be disrupted. Fights had. Tears will be shed. Chases will happen. She doesn't know the biggest danger on this mission isn't for once her. Violence, Action, Danger from the out. Scenes of passionate frank unapologetic romance. Dialogue of sassy, cruel and sarcastic nature which may peeve. Some scenes containing gigantic machinery, megastructures and hard SciFi. Transgendered characters. Occasionally scientifically accurate descriptions which should be read at the reader's discretion. Other Stuff. No Harry Styles was harmed in the writing of this novel. May contain nuts. An unsuitable plot for those doing Algebra homework. I saw the lint of danger in his black eyes and knew he wasn't kidding. Time for a new heroin - Feisty, sexy, confident.

✨️✨️COMPLETED AUGUST 29 2024✨️✨️ Desperate people will do desperate things to survive. Wealth, privilege, and power don't always lead to happiness. Money can't buy everything, but freedom has a heavy price tag. Family dynamics can be a royal pain. Love can be a choice. Fang knows trouble. Alien moneylenders, late rent, unpaid debts and generational poverty have all driven her to make a lot of really bad choices - including taking a last-minute job entertaining a wealthy Drass in hopes that she'll make enough cash to escape freezing Anun and start over. Again. Her client is an odd one, but at least he's sweet, gentle and surprisingly cute for a species that looks like a cross between a demon and a dragon, horns and all. After a night of delicious wine, soft kisses and blistering passion Fang drifts off to dreams of warm clothes, regular meals and a place she can call home. Valen has it all: money, power, a name that guarantees him a life of ease and unimaginable luxury - but he leads a lonely, purposeless life in his father's house and his only friends are paid to look after him. So when a human woman appears in his bedroom, nude and claiming to be his birthday present, he can't help but wonder if he's finally gone mad. But she is real, she is lovely, and she is his for the night. For now Valen can forget who he is, and as he falls asleep with her in his arms he dreams of her becoming a more frequent visitor. Dawn reveals a horrifying truth, and two strangers are forced to put their trust in each other amid a web of secrets, lies, politics and familial strife. Putting on their best faces in public Fang and Valen must convince their respective people that they can work together for the greater good, and in private their relationship begins to develop from one of convenience into something far more complicated.

Em

30 parts Complete

Em is a young graduate with a troubled past and an even more troubled future. After finishing university she has just started her career at GCHQ, Britain's answer to the NSA. She soon finds herself involved with an investigation into a major threat against London and the Internet itself. Unprepared, and under huge pressure to catch unknown terrorists, Em starts to doubt whether she's cut out for secret government work. Things go from bad to worse when the terrorists realise she's close to uncovering their plans, and she's confronted with a nightmare from a past life she thought she'd forgotten. ***This is a cyber/techno mystery thriller with a touch of fanfic something else too. It covers a little about analysing data, neural networks, super computers and low-tech cyber terrorism.*** Also, it's my first attempt at writing a book. There's going to be about 30 chapters and 80k words of this, and I'll be adding new chapters to Wattpad as soon as they're "ready". By this I mean readable, but not perfect. Any comments and thoughts are welcomed. Any guesses about exactly why this is part fanfiction are welcome too!
