How do you prove you're innocent when the system needs you guilty?
Dara Ajayi came to Abuja believing education would be her escape from poverty. Instead, she steps into a world where power writes its own rules, the truth is a commodity, and ordinary people are expendable.
One unexpected decision shatters the future she fought so hard to build, drawing her into a dangerous game controlled by people who never lose. As the walls close in and every ally becomes a question mark, Dara must decide whether to stay silent and survive or risk everything to fight a system determined to break her.
Because in a city where justice belongs to the powerful, innocence may be the most dangerous thing of all.

Excerpt I got a peace offering. And Ice cream. The message popped up again. His Bhaiyu was making it hard to ignore. Darwaza khol, yaar. Mogambo uth jayenge. Ansh glared at the French windows. Even desperate his Bhaiyu would not quit the name calling. Shall I leave? Ansh did not respond. Okay! Leaving the ice-cream outside. Take it before it melts. Ansh did not respond, but his heart skipped a beat. He wanted to meet his Bhaiyu. He was even a little desperate, but he did not wish to give in so soon. So, he counted until 100 and then slowly made his way outside. Iris hopped down from the bed and followed behind him. Ansh opened the doors with a big heart only to find a basket filled with dumb yellow smile squishes and a big tub of ice-cream in between. A few CD's were tucked into the basket almost as an afterthought. The game CD's that Ansh wanted. Ansh glared at the basket. "Do minute nahi rukh saktey they kya?" He muttered under his breath. "You made me wait 17 minutes, kidoo" A voice whispered in his ears. Ansh almost screamed but Nirbhay's palm closed around his mouth before any sound could slip. Ansh's heart thudded in his chest. His Bahiyu had almost given him a heart attack. Nirabhay grabbed the basket and slipped inside with Ansh, and shut the door behind him.Complete

MAFIA'S DANGEROUS WIFE
She was known as softness in a world that respected only steel. To the outside world, she was the kind of girl people trusted without thinking-gentle eyes, warm smiles, hands that helped before they were asked to. She believed in quiet kindness, in listening more than speaking, in healing rather than hurting. Neighbors spoke of her as too pure for this world, someone who didn't belong anywhere near danger. And yet, danger had always belonged to her. Behind the calm grace she carried so effortlessly was a mind sharper than any blade and a power no one suspected. In the shadows, under a name whispered only in fear and loyalty, she ruled a secret mafia empire-one built not on chaos, but on control. She didn't command through brutality alone; she commanded through intelligence, strategy, and an unbreakable sense of justice. She destroyed monsters so others wouldn't have to face them. Her life had always been divided into two truths: One lived in the light. The other ruled the dark. Then came the marriage. She was to be married off to a man the world already feared-a mafia king whose name carried blood, power, and legend. To everyone else, it was a dangerous alliance; to her family, a terrifying gamble. To him, she was merely a gentle bride, a beautiful weakness. But marriage doesn't just change surnames. It changes empires. As she steps into his world, her carefully balanced double life begins to crack. Secrets collide. Power shifts. And the girl everyone believed was fragile must decide whether to remain hidden in the shadows-or rise, unapologetically, and reveal that the most dangerous thing about her was never her kindness... but the fact that she had always known how to survive without losing it # 13 IN CONTROL (19/12/2025) # 5 IN FAMILYHISTORY (19/12/2025) # 3 IN FAMILYHISTORY (30/12/2025) # 41 OUT OF 55.8K BOOKS IN POWER (2/1/2026) #2 IN FAMILY HISTORY (3/1/2025) #3IN SECRETIDENTITY OUT OF 8.2k BOOKS (23/1/2025)

[ Hacker & Idol / Opposites Attract / Psychological Thriller / Seoul Aesthetics ] She trusts only numbers, logic, and flawless algorithms. He is used to living under the camera's lens, flashing perfect smiles for the media, and lying that "everything is fine." Ania Bielecka traveled to Milan in February just to do her job. She is a genius at finding vulnerabilities in other people's cyber-systems, yet she finds herself completely defenseless when Yoon Seo-jun-a global superstar with a flawless, high-end facade-storms into her life without warning. Between them lie a cultural divide, thousands of miles, and the glass walls they've spent years building. They are too different. Too cautious. And both know exactly how costly trust can be. But when a chance collision in Italy escalates into a dangerous game of survival in neon-drenched Seoul, old defense mechanisms begin to fail. Behind the fairytale romance of an idol and an ordinary girl, a sinister shadow starts to loom. Now, Ania must face the ultimate question: what is worse-having your system breached, or willingly letting in the one person who could destroy you?
