HEIRESS REBORN THE GAME IN THEIR EYES
KAIA (ALINA) POV The second I step into the ballroom, the air changes. It is subtle, like the way a room stills before a storm hits.The Cross Foundation gala is all polished marble, chandeliers dripping with light, and champagne flutes clinking against the hum of money talking to money. But under it, there is a quiet edge, the kind only people like me notice. People watching. Calculating. Waiting. Ever since that blog piece, people have started looking at me strange.I feel eyes on me before I even take two steps past the door.I don’t rush. My heels click slow, deliberate, the sound cutting through the music. A couple in glittering black turns their heads. A man with a politician’s smile pauses mid-sentence. I don’t look at them. I don’t look at anyone.Because I know exactly where he is.Nathaniel.He’s leaning against the far side of the room, half in shadow, drink in hand, posture casual enough to fool anyone who doesn’t know him. But his gaze is locked. Not just on me, through
HEIRESS REBORN THE GUEST LIST
KAIA (ALINA) POV The invitation sits on my desk like it’s waiting for me to flinch first. Heavy cardstock, black and gold embossing. The Cross Foundation seal stamped dead center like a dare.II don’t open the envelope right away. It’s sitting on my desk like it knows I’m going to. It’s not even sealed — a subtle insult. They assume no one would dare tamper with it.When I finally tear it open, I already know what it is.The Cross Foundation Annual Gala. Black tie. Waterfront Ballroom. Eight p.m. sharp.Turning away from it, I slide my laptop closer, pull up the encrypted server, and type in the code Theo drilled into me years ago. The guest list is already in my inbox, Cross’s people aren’t nearly as careful as they like to think.I scroll slowly, line by line, scanning the names.Some are obvious. Politicians, legacy donors, business owners who’ll pose for photos and cut checks. But then there are the quieter names, the ones that shouldn’t be anywhere near a charity gala.Not the
HEIRESS REBORN THE WOMAN IN THE MIRROR
The envelope is thick. Heavier than it should be.I sit at my desk, turning it over once before sliding a manicured finger under the seal. It’s from the fixer. The one I trust when I don’t trust anyone else. He’s never late. Never sloppy. I don't know why I didn't go with him from the beginning.The paper inside smells faintly of the cheap cardboard file it must have been pulled from. A birth certificate. Off-white, faint creases, official stamps in the right places. My eyes land on the name: Kaia Reyes.I study the date of birth. The place. Parents. Everything matches what she’s claimed. Not a smudge out of place.For a moment, my pulse slows.I lean back in my chair, holding it up to the light. No tells. No shadows where forgery usually hides. It looks… real.So then, who the hell has been lying to me?“Mrs. Cross?” My assistant’s voice is careful through the door.I keep my eyes on the certificate. “Come in.”She enters, closing the door behind him, already knowing this is not a da
HEIRESS REBORN THE SHADOW BETWEEN NAMES
SASHA'S POV I am halfway through my coffee when my phone buzzes. Unknown number. Normally I’d let it go to voicemail, but the day’s already been circling the drain, and curiosity’s a sickness I can’t seem to shake.“Yeah?” I answer, no smile in my voice.“It’s done,” a clipped voice says. No name, no greeting. I know who it is. Cross estate contact. The one I paid extra to pull the log history Nathaniel didn’t even know existed.“You are sure?” I lean back, pressing the mug to my lips just to keep from grinning too soon.“Positive. We should meet. I am not comfortable discussing this on a phone."“Very well,” i say as I get to my feet. “I will send you an address. I will be there in thirty minutes.”“Fine by me.”“I’m telling you, Sasha, you didn’t hear it from me.”The woman across from me leans forward, lowering her voice like the room’s bugged. Maybe it is. This is one of the Cross places, after all.I keep my expression flat, pen hovering over my notebook. “Two identities.”She
HEIRESS REBORN SPLINTERS UNDER THE SKIN
NATHANIEL POVI’m not an idiot. I know when someone’s shutting me out.And my mother is shutting me out.She’s been locking herself in her office all week, her meetings shorter but somehow louder, voices raised, doors slamming, papers slapped down like weapons. Half the time, I hear her before I see her, and the other half, she’s just… gone. No explanations. No updates. Not even the usual, “I’ll handle it, Nathaniel. Don't mess up, Nathaniel.”This morning, I walk past her office and hear the low murmur of voices. Male. Two of them. I lean against the wall, just far enough to listen without being caught. They’re talking about numbers. Funding. Shifting assets. Someone's assets. Not a family.When the door creaks, I step back, arms folded, just as she comes out.“Who was that?” I ask, like I already know I won’t get a real answer.“Nothing you need to concern yourself with,” she says, smoothing her blouse like that’s the end of it.“Really? Because last I checked, I still run half this
HEIRESS REBORN THE GHOST IN THE WIRES
KAIA (ALINA) POV The trace finally stops moving and the line of code on my screen freezes like it is staring back at me, daring me to follow it deeper. I lean forward, elbows on the desk, the glow from the monitors washing my hands in pale blue.That is it there. The breach.Not a sloppy hack. No, this one is surgical, cleaner than ninety percent of the pros I have crossed paths with. But there is a smell to it, a familiarity, like something I thought I had buried years ago.Something from my past.Theo’s voice cuts in through my earpiece. “Have you found the hole?” “I’m looking at it,” I say. “And it is old. Really old.” “How old?” “Old enough that I should be a ghost to it. But someone dug up a dead system.” My fingers fly across the keyboard, pulling metadata headers. “Hotel server. One of the ones that got wiped after my… ‘disappearance.’”There is a pause on his end. “You saying someone rebuilt it?” “I’m saying someone resurrected it,” I tell him. “Piece by piece. And they
