In the sterile, glass-and-steel heart of Thorne Tower, Lyra Belcourt is a woman with a secret mission. To the world, she is a brilliant auditor sent to dissect the crumbling financial empire of the enigmatic Silas Thorne. To Silas, she is the first person in years who doesn't flinch at his cold, calculated dominance. Driven by a dark, magnetic attraction, Silas offers her a deal: absolute access to his ledgers in exchange for absolute submission to his "Protocol"—a rigid lifestyle contract governing her every move, breath, and thought. As Lyra enters the "Obsidian Room," the story unfolds as a high-stakes game of power and sensory exploration. However, the deeper she sinks into Silas’s world, the more the reality around them begins to fracture. Silas is plagued by "glitches" in his memory and a haunting sense of deja vu, while Lyra is secretly recording his every physiological response. The corporate war with the ruthless Caspian Vane is merely a distraction from the terrifying truth hidden within the Gilded Ledger. The ultimate "mind-blowing" twist reveals that the "Thorne Protocol" isn't a game of lust, but a psychological simulation. Silas is a personality construct built by Lyra herself to replace a broken man named Leo. In a final, heart-stopping revelation, the readers discover that even Lyra’s control is an illusion—they are both trapped in a digital "Mirror Image" loop where their roles as Master and Servant are programmed to reset forever.

When he and his father eventually decide to begin a new life after his mom and sister's death, Praxis Cohen, a suicidal teenager with an expressionless visage on his face, finds himself in a huge, formidable laboratory where teenagers like him are being injected a drug of which the effect is still unknown. Fortunate enough, his body can withstand the drug that leads him to be declared by Dr. Conscire as the first patient to have successfully passed the First Stage of the experiment in this generation. As he proceeds to the Second Stage, Dr. Conscire, the president of the organization, decides to release him off the laboratory to find out that the effect of the drug enables him to read minds and do psychokinesis that sets his mind into chaos. In his debacle as an experimented guinea pig of the nameless organization, realizing that he is not alone in this experiment, Praxis meets new marvelous people to discover the origin of the experiment, the reason why they turned into supernormal beings, the connection of this experiment to the unborn world war in the future, the twists and turns of their past stories, and to discern the next stages of the experiment. With the collaborative effort of their team, they strive to choose the best course of action to put an end to this fight.

Protocol for Seduction By Daniel Ejemai In a city where data is more valuable than loyalty and desire is a currency of its own, Julian Vane controls everything—markets, media, and the invisible algorithms that predict human behavior before it happens. As the enigmatic CEO of Vane Industries, he has built an empire on surveillance and precision. Nothing surprises him. Nothing escapes him. Until Elara steps into his tower. Brilliant, defiant, and dangerously curious, Elara seeks access to classified files that could expose the true extent of Vane’s predictive policing system. Julian offers her a deal instead: thirty days under his rules—his proximity, his control, his world—in exchange for the information she wants. What begins as a calculated arrangement quickly ignites into something neither of them can fully command. Power shifts. Boundaries blur. Attraction becomes a weapon—and a weakness. As secrets surface and emotions intensify, Elara must decide whether she’s dismantling a tyrant… or surrendering to the only man capable of matching her fire. In a world wired for control, love may be the one variable no algorithm can predict.
