She was told to stay small. Teaching, marrying, and having children were "safe", and engineering was "for men" and "too tough for her".

AUTHOR's NOTE Hi everyone - and Merry Christmas! If you're here because you read Twisted Desire, you already know I don't write cookie‑cutter romances or rely on tired clichés to drag a plot forward. I'm obsessed with tension, real stakes, engaging storylines and characters who feel like actual humans rather than trope machines. If you have not read it, a quick heads‑up for you: this book is not your standard dark romance. There are no mafia bosses, no forced marriage, no supernatural creatures, and definitely no cringe lines like "Can you handle my darkness?" What you will find are power imbalances, psychological tension, trauma, violence and healing, morally grey love interests, BDSM dynamics, and plenty of the tropes we all secretly adore - but set inside a world you don't usually see in this genre. This story takes place in strategy consulting: a corporate ecosystem that is very real, very intense, and occasionally so unhinged it practically becomes a character of its own. It's sharp, chaotic, predatory and emotionally charged in all the best ways. You don't need any consulting knowledge to enjoy the ride. I'll guide you through the jargon, the madness, and the fluorescent‑lit emotional damage. My goal is to make the setting vivid, entertaining, and immersive - even if it's nothing like your own world. I hope you laugh, cringe, root for these characters, and maybe even fall a little in love with this strange corporate universe they're trapped in. And please comment along the way - your reactions and theories fuel me, and they often inspire the twists that end up being the most delicious. I am releasing the first two chapters today as my Christmas present for you ☺️ New chapters will be published once a week, every Sunday. Thank you for giving this world a chance - I'm genuinely excited to share it with you. This is a work of fiction. None of the characters, places and events are real. Bits and pieces may have been inspired by real life events

In this AU we get to see the TO/Rookie dynamic back in Season 1, but in an office environment. We also get to see how they will confront their feelings and how they slowly get to be lovey dovey around each other. The start of this fic is extremely slow because this will be a slow burn fic, so nothing is really going to happen for the first few chapters. I do suck at dialogues so I feel like I will be mainly narrating Tim and Lucy's thoughts but when it is necessary I will use dialogues. Also, really happy that this is my 2nd fic. Hopefully I don't get burned out or give up on this story. Updates will be dependent on how you guys feel about this fic and if you want more chapters or not. Otherwise, I will not update on here and will just update elsewhere. Anyways if you find anything confusing or hard to grasp then leave a comment and I'll personally explain it for you. Happy reading and please leave comments, I do want to hear your thoughts!! 😆🫶🏽

In Hong Kong's neon and Shanghai's rain, a spotless A‑list actor and a Black cultural strategist make a simple pact: no strings, no photos, no names. She architects scent and story for the brand that owns his image; he's the face that could break her career if anyone looks too closely. Rooftops become rendezvous, ferries become alibis, and the city learns their chemistry faster than they can unlearn it. But secrets breed shadows. An ex who knows how to play the camera circles the set. A "protective" offer from Samara's past promises safety at a price. Managers count morality clauses; blogs count elevator seconds. Between heritage battles, late‑night shoots, and a love they refuse to name, they'll have to decide which rules protect them-and which are cages. Neon hums. Scent lingers. And the only way out of the dark might be through it, together. ©️ _RelleLebby_// R. L.
