HEIRESS REBORN CODE RED
POV: DETECTIVE ARLEN KADEThere’s no warning.One minute, I’m sipping half-warm coffee over the precinct’s busted copier, and the next—glass doors slam open, badges flash, and everything goes to hell.“Internal Affairs! Nobody moves!”The air goes sharp. My stomach knots. I set the coffee down before it spills, because I know what this is. I just didn’t expect it this fast.They sweep in like they’ve rehearsed it—two teams, six deep, computers bagged, files boxed, hard drives yanked from desks like we’re harboring state secrets. They’re not subtle. They want us to panic.But I’m already calm. Too calm.Because I was waiting for this.I walk back to my desk slowly, careful not to look at the drawer where the original file used to sit. The one labeled Alina Rivers – Closed, Deceased. It's empty now. Wiped three nights ago. I made sure of it. Burned the original, copied the backups to three separate encrypted drives, and buried one in a cloud account not even the Bureau uses.I open my d
HEIRESS REBORN FAULTLINES
POV: VIVIAN HALEI hate corporate politics. I hate meetings where people say a lot without saying anything. I hate that I have to fake-smile at men who think they built this company, when every inch of it is Kaia’s blood. But today? Today I hate something else more.I hate liars who look you in the face and call it loyalty.I’ve been working the same angle all week. Subtle check-ins, late-night phone calls masked as “compliance questions,” the kind of fake-casual probing that makes even seasoned execs sweat behind their teeth-whitened smiles. Kaia didn’t want a witch hunt—just the truth. But truth doesn’t come clean in places like this. It comes soaked in layers.And tonight, sitting at my desk at the edge of midnight, I think I’ve peeled back enough.I hit send on the last email. I stare at the list I’ve compiled. Only one name is circled in red.I say it out loud, just to hear how it lands.“Reed.”“Kaia,” I say the second I walk into her office, even though the lights are low and s

HEIRESS REBORN STORM SIGNAL
POV: KAIA (ALINA)I don’t flinch when the first message comes in.I’ve trained myself not to. Learned how to sit still when the ground beneath me shifts. Even now, with the Ashen skyline pouring in through my penthouse windows like silver smoke, I don’t move. I just tilt my head slightly, eyes fixed on the blinking notification—no sender name. No subject. Just a blinking dot, like someone watching.Encrypted, of course. Too clean to be random.I enter the passkey without a second thought. It’s a code I haven’t used since I was Alina Rivers—back when I still believed people would fight fair if you gave them the truth.The file opens.At first it looks like a spreadsheet. Legal names. Meeting timestamps. Advisor clearances. Then I see the pattern, just like Sasha wanted me to.Someone in Ashen’s own advisory team has been leaking—access logs show patterns that don’t add up. Confidential files opened hours before closed boardroom discussions. Email reroutes. Cross-referenced financial au
