Freedom is often described as a person's ability to think, express themselves, and act according to their own values, beliefs, needs, and desires. However, it remains a utopian ideology, a seductive illusion that tricks us into believing we're getting closer to the truth. But what is truth, if not that which aligns with reality? And yet, human beings can only perceive what their minds present to them as real.
Sakura Haruno, a nineteen-year-old young woman, stands at the threshold of adulthood. Leaving her hometown behind to attend the prestigious Konoha University, she unknowingly embarks on a journey far beyond her control. Between buried family secrets, personal dilemmas, newfound friendships, and tumultuous love affairs, she must navigate a labyrinth of emotions and choices. For her, the challenge will be untangling the threads between reality and myth-discovering who she truly is at the heart of all this chaos.
"The Hacker and the Mob Boss" ❦
Reyna Fields seems to be an ordinary girl with her thick-framed glasses, baggy clothes, hair always up in a ponytail, and her head tucked away behind a computer screen. However, no one knows she's armed with a genius IQ and a heart of gold. She hacks her way into virtual systems on a search for her mother.
Unfortunately for her, she has hacked into the wrong database. She hacked into the database of the notorious mob boss, Santino "Saint" Venturi.
Saint is the opposite of his name. He's known for his ruthlessness. As a mob boss to a mafia, he learned to eat or be eaten. When Reyna stumbles upon his database, a plan dispersed into his mind. He's going to take her.

"I don't share, angel."
"He's a friend," she found herself saying. Dante was too busy staring at her to notice the fiery glare in Saint's eyes. She was mentally praying that Dante would just look away.
His fingers trailed up her leg before his hand latched onto her sex. He held her there while a small gasp left her lips. "I will fuck you on this table if he doesn't stop looking at what belongs to me."
