The Iris Code is a chilling dystopian thriller set in the sprawling megacity of Nivara, where technology promises freedom but hides control.
When the global Iris Project offers money in exchange for a simple eye scan, millions submit without question. But Lena Arkwell, a rebel chasing the truth behind her sister's death, discovers the scans are more than data - they're the keys to rewriting humanity itself.
As chaos erupts and alliances twist, Lena and a fractured band of allies must confront Draven Korr, the architect of the system - a man who dreams not of ruling Nivara, but of owning the human soul.
In a world where betrayal hides behind every smile, where even friends may not be what they seem, Lena faces a final choice: destroy the system and lose everything, or watch the future fall into Draven's hands.
⚠️ Yet even in victory, a question lingers: Can you ever kill an idea once it has seen through your eyes?

Heirs And Hunters
"Every step you take away from me only drives you closer to the brink of my madness. You belong to me, Winter. Any alternative reality or illusion you hope for- I will destroy them until your very existence is entwined with mine." -𝐈𝐯𝐚𝐧 𝐀𝐫𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐞 Eighteen-year-old Winter has always been a quiet shadow, a shy spy avoiding the perils of the spotlight. But when she's tasked with stalking five powerful Heirs, her carefully crafted invisibility shatters. Her mission is clear: erase their scandals, track their every move, and never draw attention. Yet, when she crosses paths with Ivan Arcane-the ruthless heir to one of the world's most powerful empires-everything changes. At first, Ivan saw her as dull and dependent, an insignificant watcher in the crowd. A beautiful doll to be kept locked and safe somewhere- an innocence belonging nowhere near him or his world. But when she makes one fatal mistake, he uncovers the sharp, wild mind she's concealed beneath fragile masks of pink and purples. Now, Ivan is obsessed, determined to dismantle her defenses and claim her as his own. And In a world where power rules, Winter is no longer the Hunter in the game -she's Ivan's fixation, a prey to a predator and he'll stop at nothing to change the very narrative of the fairy tale so the villain gets the girl in the end.

May the Dead Lie Still
The world ended quietly. No meteor, no war, no warning. Just a pulse of red light-and then silence. In the ruins of Japan, the Hive spread like wildfire, a biomechanical virus that didn't just kill-it rewrote. Minds, bodies, cities. Everything it touched became part of a greater, terrifying whole. Iris Vale was supposed to die. Infected during the outbreak, she was taken by Nyx researchers and altered with a prototype serum. She lived-but she wasn't the same. Now faster, stronger, and still linked to the Hive through whispers in her mind, she walks the line between human and something else. But her purpose is clear: Yori, the man she loved and lost, is still alive-imprisoned inside the Hive's central structure, the Citadel. Once a brilliant tech entrepreneur, Yori has become the blueprint for the Hive's future, its chosen host for global domination. If he is consumed, the world won't just be lost-it will belong. With a fractured team of survivors, including Reina-the unstable Listener haunted by voices of the infected-and the determined Dr. Hoshino, Iris launches a desperate mission into the living nightmare of the Citadel. Facing shapeshifting horrors, psychic traps, and twisted versions of her past, Iris must use every weapon she has-her body, her mind, and her memories-to reach Yori before the Hive completes its final overwrite. But deep within the Hive's mental realm, Iris finds that love is not only memory-it is resistance. And the strongest virus of all may be the one that reminds us who we are.Complete

But unfortunately for Iris, her luck had ended the day she'd presumed herself to be at the height of her career. Because she's been found. Not by anyone of the law, but Adrian Sokolov. And his brother, Ronan Petrov, her former detective partner, who'd been a lie from the beginning. And to top it all off, Iris is now their captive. In mind, body, and spirit, or so they say.

But with the world against her and the brothers monitoring her every move during the day while stealing her heart in the dark, will she be able to escape her untimely fate? Or will her life be lost to the savage needs of those who want to capture her soul? Find out in the 'The Kiss of Death', a dark romance novel.
