This book is a collection of independent, standalone one-shots I wrote during quiet moments - when inspiration struck and I simply followed it.
The genres vary, the tones shift, and the characters change - but each story carries a fragment of thought, emotion, or imagination I didn't want to keep to myself.

law's Hidden Agent
In Beijing's gilded elite, Emma Walker, heiress to the formidable Walker Group (global investments, covert intelligence), and Lily Zhu, brilliant scion of the allied Zhu Corporation (AI, cybernetics), are destined for power. But their world shatters under Professor Meng. Veiled in mystery, and scarred by the devastating personal tragedy of the "Dragonfly Breach," Meng is no ordinary academic. He's a master strategist, a puppet master, and his law seminar isn't just a class; it's a brutal proving ground, a recruitment drive for a shadow war where legal boundaries bleed into covert operations. For the select few, his private tuition offers a glimpse into a world far beyond textbooks-a world where the lines between professor and operative blur. As Emma and Lily's families-and Michael, Emma's sharp-witted brother-uncover a coordinated economic counter-offensive, the duo forms a strategic alliance. Their partnership is immediately tested by the arrival of Valeria Shaw, heiress to the critical resource empire, Shaw Industries, whose elusive sister, Anya, whispers of a top operative. With a shared apartment needing a third, and strategic alliances blurring into personal rivalries, they navigate a world where loyalty is fluid and ambition knows no bounds. Whose war are they fighting? Can they outmaneuver a mentor driven by personal vengeance, outwit their rivals, and carve their own future in a game where algorithms, assets, and audacious ambition are the deadliest weapons? ---

Paint Me in Red Again
Halloween is truly a festive time of year. Spooky stories, haunted houses and vampires that you can't help but thirst over because you're weird like that. That's why Hale Woodsen's inviting you to the Traitre Museum. You know, that weirdly atmospheric place near 86th, the one with the dome ceiling? Yeah. There'll be music. Shadows. Smoke machines. Candlelight that definitely isn't safe. Maybe even a Ouija board or two. Costumes are absolutely mandatory - don't come dressed like a civilian unless you want to be sacrificed mid-party for the aesthetic. For everyone has suffered a tragedy recently, the disappearance of Luca Almirez. For those who don't know (you're living under a rock), the basketballer disappeared a month or two ago, after the biggest game of his life. Nothing's been found about him, and to be honest? We're not sure if there ever will be. He was a best friend, a gifted sportsman, and overall a beloved member of society. Perhaps this is Hale's way of battling the grief. Since, you know, he was Luca's best friend. He's trying just as hard as everyone else to get to the bottom of this. His list of suspects is never ending, from Cady Lovaine to Ruel Cruz, to even Reverie Vale and Leslie Wilde. But they have hunches too, and so the story continues, dangerous and twisted. But that's not everything. If you want to get all the details, let's leave the Halloween party. Let's go to the 16th of August, where everything began.
