Freen, an astronomer, has always found solace in the stars. A prodigy who finished her Master degree by 24, also teaches part-time at her alma mater, Chulalongkorn University. Orphaned young and having lost her beloved aunt seven years ago, Freen lives a life shaped by quiet routines and empty rooms, where her telescope is her only constant companion. Her one true warmth comes from the local orphanage, where she volunteers to fill the silent spaces in her heart.
Rebecca, diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome, finds her entire universe not in the sky, but in the machines that conquer it. Aeroplanes are her world - their engines, models, wingspans, histories, even the aircraft used in the world wars. Her vast knowledge and intense fascination with aviation are her primary ways of understanding and connecting with the world. Raised by orphanage owners Dion and Helena Armstrong, Rebecca lost her mother a decade ago and now navigates life under the gentle care of her father, Dion.
One day, during her usual visit to the orphanage, Dion asked Freen for a favour - one that would change her life forever.
P/s: Asperger's Syndrome, a form of Autism Spectrum Disorder, is a developmental disorder. People who have this type of ASD tend to have a hard time relating to others socially. They may stick to a very specific routine and have a narrow set of interests.
Although the term Asperger's isn't an official diagnosis anymore, some people still use the term to describe autistic people who are "high-functioning" or who have low support needs.
"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."
