Wish's Desire
Everyone in Midas wants something from Wish. At Desire, the city's most exclusive pleasure club, that is simply part of the job. Beautiful, sharp-tongued and very good at making powerful people believe exactly what they want to believe, Wish has learned how to survive inside a world where nearly everything has a price-including him. What he wants is much simpler. Freedom. So when David Lopez, an ambitious executive from Micro Corps, offers Wish a way out in exchange for information whispered behind Desire's closed doors, Wish accepts. Stealing secrets from some of the most powerful people in Midas is dangerous, but danger is nothing new to him. Then one job goes catastrophically wrong. Experimental technology belonging to Project Prometheus escapes containment and embeds itself inside Wish's body. Suddenly, the man corporations barely noticed unless they wanted something from him has become something they are willing to kill for. Lucian Solstice wants what was stolen returned. Other players see an opportunity. And the people offering Wish protection may have their own ideas about what he is worth. As the technology inside him begins changing what his body can do, Wish is dragged deeper into a war between corporations, secrets and ambitions far larger than himself. Escaping Desire was supposed to mean finally owning his life. Instead, Wish is about to discover that freedom becomes much more complicated when everyone believes they own a piece of you. And if they refuse to let him go, he may have to become dangerous enough to make them. A/N: To everyone who already read the first version of Wish's Desire: I strongly recommend reading it again from the beginning, because this new version is far more than a simple edit. I have changed almost everything surrounding the pacing, character development, story details, background, atmosphere, and worldbuilding. I hope you enjoy discovering this new version of Wish's storyConcluída
