Chapter: THE GLITCH IN THE SYSTEMThe world believed they were dead. The news cycles, after twenty-four hours of frenzied coverage of the "cyber-terrorist cell's catastrophic accident," moved on. There were funerals—empty caskets for Elena Torres and Maya Flores, a somber university memorial for the "fallen, misguided" Professor Adrian Wells. Ronan Lake was a footnote, a nameless hacker accomplice.Aetherius Group issued a solemn statement expressing regret for the "tragic loss of life" and pledging renewed efforts to safeguard digital infrastructure. Dr. Althea Vance’s face was a picture of somber, statesmanlike resolve on every screen. The palimpsest was complete. The story was sealed.Beneath the city, in the forgotten spaces, the ghosts learned to live.Their new home was not a home. It was a network. A dry utility tunnel annexed by Ronan, powered by siphoned cables, its air filtered through scavenged hardware. It was cold, humming with the city's heartbeat, and utterly secure. They called it The Glitch.Their liv

Chapter: THE GHOSTS WHO FIGHTThe world had not just turned against them; it had been reprogrammed to see them as a virus. The faces on Damian’s tablet—their own faces—stared back, branded with a scarlet letter of terror. The rushing water around their knees felt like the rushing current of a reality that had been surgically altered.“No,” Maya whispered, the word a broken thing. “No, we showed them… we gave them everything…”“And she took it and wrapped it in a flag,” Adrian said, his voice hollow with a fury so deep it had no sound. “She made truth treason.”Boots pounded on the concrete riverwalk above the outflow pipe. Muffled shouts cut through the damp air. “Check the outflow tunnels! Move!”Damian didn’t move to block them further. He simply stepped aside, gesturing with the flashlight beam toward the dark, river-churned water beyond the pipe’s mouth. “Your options have narrowed. Swim into the river and take your chances with the current and the patrol boats. Or stay here and become a very public trophy in

Chapter: THE ARCHITECT’S RAGEDr. Althea Vance's voice, stripped of its corporate serenity and vibrating with pure, undiluted fury, was a more terrifying sound than any gunshot. It wasn't the anger of a thwarted predator, but of a master architect watching a barbarian hurl a paint bucket across her pristine, perfect mural."You have corrupted the entire data-stream. You have unleashed chaos into a system of order. Do you have any concept of the damage you've done?"The words echoed in the concrete chamber, bouncing off the dead drones and the humming, overloaded servers. Elena, her ears still ringing from the sonic assault, felt a strange, electric thrill cut through the fear. They had hurt her. Not physically, but where it mattered most—in her world of control, of data, of managed perception.Adrian stepped forward, putting himself between the invisible voice and Elena. "The damage was already done, Dr. Vance. We just showed everyone the blueprint.""You showed them noise!" Vance spat, the distortion on the inter

Chapter: THE SIEGE The world dissolved into a symphony of chaos. The sterile, fluorescent lights of the federal building flickered, then died, replaced by the hellish, pulsing red glow of emergency strobes. The gunfire from below was no longer muffled—it was a deafening, percussive roar of automatic weapons, shattering glass, and screaming metal.Lang was already in motion, a pistol in her hand, her voice a sharp bark cutting through the noise on her radio. "All units, tactical breach in progress, east and north entrances! This is not a drill! Hostiles are armed and armored! Protect the asset package in Sector Bravo!"The "asset package" was them. Fletcher, whimpering in his chair; Maya, frozen in terror; Ronan, frantically trying to seal digital doors as physical ones were being blown off their hinges; Adrian, shoving Elena toward the room's single, reinforced door; and Elena herself, her heart a frantic, caged animal against her ribs."This way!" Lang yelled, gesturing down a secondary corridor away f

Chapter: THE SCRAPE MARKSDr. Ian Fletcher’s home was a monument to carefully curated intellect—a modernist box of glass and steel perched on a wooded hillside, filled with first editions and abstract art. It was the home of a man who had won all the right awards but lived in the long shadow of another. Adrian Wells’s shadow.The extraction was a silent, surgical affair. Lang’s team, experts in a different kind of persuasion than Aetherius’s, bypassed the security system with a hum and were inside before Fletcher had finished his late-night brandy. There was no struggle. One moment he was alone with his bitterness, the next he was surrounded by grim-faced strangers, a suppressor-equipped pistol a silent promise in the lead agent’s hand.He was brought to a different kind of room—a soundproofed, windowless interrogation cell in a federal building whose location Elena didn’t know. This wasn’t a safe house. This was a machine for extracting truth.Fletcher sat across from them, his initial terror hardening into a

Chapter: THE WAR OF REALITYThe red light was a single, burning eye. It held the weight of a world, of four lives, of a truth so monstrous it threatened to crack the screen. The sterile, air-conditioned chill of the studio was a stark contrast to the fire in Elena’s veins. Catherine Lee’s practiced, calm expression was a mask over the electric tension in the room.“We are interrupting our scheduled programming for a major developing story,” Catherine began, her voice smooth as polished stone, yet carrying an undercurrent of gravity that made producers pause in the control room. “With me are Elena Torres, a university student at the center of the recent ‘Chiron Initiative’ whistleblower case, Professor Adrian Wells, and Maya Flores. They have just arrived at our studios with what they claim is evidence of a conspiracy that reaches far beyond the university walls.”The camera swung to them. Elena saw their reflection in the lens—pale, determined, haunted. She saw Adrian’s jaw tighten, a professor steeling himself

Chapter: A FRACTILE TRUCEThey burst out from the oppressive darkness of the alley onto the deserted, rain-slicked street. The sounds of the brutal fight in her apartment building were muffled now, a distant storm. For a single, heart-lifting moment, Luna felt a surge of wild, desperate hope. They had made it. They were away."Just a little further," River murmured, his voice a steady anchor in her swirling terror, his grip on her arm unbreakable as he pulled her toward the side street where his car was hidden.Suddenly, he froze. His entire massive body went rigid, a statue of tension. He shoved her behind him with such shocking, primal force that she stumbled, her palms scraping against the rough, wet pavement.Standing under the flickering, sickly glow of a faulty streetlight, calmly blocking their path, was a figure that made Luna's blood run cold.It wasn't Dr. Thorne. It wasn't a squad of Enforcers.It was Asher Blackwood.He leaned against a sleek, black sedan, his posture deceptively relaxed. There was

Chapter: BOUND BY INSTINCTLuna's apartment had never felt smaller. Three massive alphas filled the space, their combined presence making the air thick with tension and barely restrained power. She pressed herself against the wall, overwhelmed by the intensity of their combined scents and the way her body responded to each of them."This is crazy," she whispered, her voice shaking. "All of this is completely insane.""Crazy doesn't mean wrong," River said gently, his hands still framing her face. His touch was warm, steadying, and she found herself leaning into it despite her fear.Asher moved closer, his storm-grey eyes never leaving her face. "The mate bond doesn't lie, Luna. What you're feeling, what we're all feeling—it's real.""Multiple mate bonds aren't possible," Luna protested weakly, even as her body betrayed her words by responding to both alphas' proximity.Kai laughed from where he leaned against her kitchen counter, somehow managing to look perfectly at ease despite the tension crackling through t

Chapter: THREE ALPHAS, OMEGALuna stared at Kai through the glass, her body responding to his presence despite Dr. Thorne's medication. The suppressant had dulled the sharp edge of her heat, but it couldn't stop the way her pulse quickened or the liquid warmth that pooled low in her belly."Go away," she said, but her voice lacked conviction.Kai's mouth curved into a knowing smile. "That's not what your scent is telling me." He pressed his palm against the window. "Let me in, Luna."The sound of her name on his lips sent a shiver down her spine. How did he know her name? How had he found her apartment?"I'm not inviting strange alphas into my home.""Strange?" Kai laughed, the sound rich and dark. "We're going to be much more than strangers, omega. You felt it in the alley. The pull."She had felt it. Even now, with glass between them, the mate bond was trying to form, reaching out like invisible threads. It was different from what she'd experienced with Asher but equally powerful, equally undeniable."You can't

Chapter: HEAT & WANTLuna barely made it through her apartment door before her knees gave out. She slumped against the wood, sliding down until she was sitting on the cold hardwood floor, her body burning from the inside out.The heat was getting worse. Much worse.She'd managed to keep it together in the alley, but now, alone in her tiny studio apartment, there was no hiding from what was happening to her. Every nerve ending felt exposed, hypersensitive. The thin cotton of her uniform clung to her skin like sandpaper, and she could smell her own arousal mixing with the lingering scents of the two alphas she'd just encountered.Asher's pine and winter storm. Kai's wild ocean and leather.Both scents were embedded in her memory now, her omega biology cataloging them as potential mates. The thought should have terrified her, but instead it sent another wave of liquid heat straight to her core.Luna pressed her palms against her eyes, trying to think clearly. She needed to call in sick to work tomorrow. She

Chapter: THE SCENT OF DESTINYLuna Rivers pressed her back against the cold brick wall of the alley, her heart hammering against her ribs as footsteps echoed closer. The suppressants she'd been taking for years were failing, and her omega scent was bleeding through despite the pills she'd doubled up on this morning."I can smell you, little omega." The voice was rough, predatory. "No point hiding now."She squeezed her eyes shut, cursing herself for taking the shortcut home from her night shift at the diner. Seattle's supernatural district wasn't safe for any omega after dark, let alone one whose scent was calling to every alpha within a five-mile radius.The footsteps stopped directly in front of her hiding spot. Luna held her breath, pressing herself deeper into the shadows between two dumpsters. Her phone was dead, and screaming would only attract more unwanted attention."Found you."A massive hand shot out, grabbing her wrist and yanking her from her hiding place. The alpha was huge, easily six and a half fee
