Modern retelling of Macbeth

In the cutthroat world of political journalism, Maggie Blackwell has always played by the rules, but rules don't get you to the top. Stuck behind senior reporters and overlooked for promotions, Maggie is desperate for the story that will define her career. When three mysterious sources offer a cryptic tip about a major corruption scandal involving presidential candidate Mark Harlow, Maggie is thrust into a web of deception and ambition.

What begins as a career-making scoop quickly spirals out of control as Maggie risks everything to expose the truth. The cost of her rise to fame? Her ethics, her relationships, and her sanity. As her fabricated story propels her into the spotlight, the line between truth and lies begins to blur, and Maggie must confront the darkness lurking behind her ambition.

In a world where the truth can be bent, sold, and manipulated, Maggie must ask herself: How far will she go to hold the powerful accountable before she becomes just another casualty of the game?

In this gripping modern retelling of Macbeth, ambition, betrayal, and guilt collide in a high-stakes battle for power. Maggie Blackwell's story is one of meteoric rise and inevitable, crushing fall.

The Grean Household by uninstalledproxy402
61 parts Complete Mature
"It was a mistake..." She told her mother, folding her hands into each other. "Marrying him..." Her mother said nothing, she simply sat there as her only daughter stood across from her, on the verge of collapsing from bruised ribs and cracked shins. "Mom." She wanted to reach out, softly tap her aging mother. Though that was the restriction of her life. The binding stereotype that she was gentle and slow to anger. In reality, what wanted to explode from her ribs was a scream of an animal, and the tears of repressed rage and fear. She wanted to throw her body onto the floor, but the thought made her damaged body ache more. There was no response from her mother. The deafening silence reminded her of her own quietness as her husband shouted at her, his fists bloody. He told her that she was only a tool for his amusement and a money-whore for her indigent family. She was nothing else but a tool for both parties. And she was starting to believe him. --------------------- Sarah Johnsen's life spirals from the normal gritty resilient fight to a serene wonderland. On the outside, she's married to a kind family with untold riches, but on the inside, her husband is the devil himself. Forcefully married at 18, Sarah was forced to kill her own dreams of becoming a doctor in order to bind her poor family to the rich bastards of Glendale by marrying their youngest; Oliver Grean. Their arrangement had the ability to brew the largest timespan of misery any of them has ever known. From lost toddlers to paid staged kidnappings, the binding of the two families, the Johnsen's and the Grean's created a mixture of chaos, confusion, sorrow, fear, grief, and dangerous rage. And there seems to be no haven to escape to. Or is there?
