Gloss POV

After the chaos of the breach, the office was quieter, but the quiet was deceptive, like the stillness before a hurricane. Dream hadn’t said a word since his declaration that he was going to end Xiao Lang. He’d gone full CEO mode, cold, calculating, untouchable.

For the rest of that day and most of the night, he worked nonstop, locking himself in the glass-walled conference room. Through the foggy glass, I could see him bent over documents, his jaw clenched, the faint glint of his watch catching the light as his fingers typed without rest.

He wasn’t angry anymore. No, that would have been easier. Dream was focused. And that was terrifying.

By morning, he called me in. I barely had time to sip my coffee before the security team escorted me to his office.

He was sitting behind his desk, crisp suit, hair perfectly in place, eyes sharp enough to cut through glass. There was no trace of exhaustion. Just resolve.

“Gloss,” he said evenly, “we’re going to take him down without

  • LEVEL UP MY COLD CEO {MxM}   CHAPTER 90: RECONNECTION.

    Dream's POV The light faded like the last breath of a dying star, and the world returned with a rush of sound. My lungs burned as I dragged in a deep breath, the taste of electricity and blood thick on my tongue. My eyes snapped open to chaos, alarms blaring, screens flickering, the room drenched in the crimson glow of emergency lights. I tried to move, but the weight on my arm held me still. Gloss. He was slumped beside me on the floor, pale, motionless, his fingers still curled around the neural link cable. His chest rose and fell faintly, shallow, but steady enough to make my heart stutter in relief. His hair clung to his forehead, his lips parted slightly as if he were caught between worlds. “Gloss,” I rasped, my throat raw. I reached for him, brushing a hand against his cheek. He was warm, but too still. “Come on, wake up.” No response. The monitors behind us flickered wildly, streams of code racing faster than I could read. The system’s synthetic voice echoed overhead, gl

  • LEVEL UP MY COLD CEO {MxM}   CHAPTER 89: THE CODE DUEL.

    Gloss POV The moment the light consumed me, the world dissolved into static. For a brief second, I couldn’t tell whether I was alive or lost inside a dream stitched out of corrupted code. Then, I blinked, and the distortion cleared. I found myself standing in Dream’s office, or at least, a twisted reflection of it. The walls shimmered like liquid glass, colors shifting between black and silver. Every line of furniture glowed faintly with code, and beyond the windows, there was no city, no skyline, only streams of data falling like rain. It was the system’s interface world. Adrian’s world now. I clenched my fists and scanned the room. Everything felt wrong. The hum of the lights, the familiar scent of coffee and ozone, all too real, but just off enough to unsettle me. My heart pounded. I could feel Dream’s presence somewhere far away, faint and fading, like a heartbeat behind glass. Then I heard it, the soft clap of hands behind me. “Well, well, well” Adrian’s voice purred, smooth

  • LEVEL UP MY COLD CEO {MxM}   CHAPTER 88: CONNECTION FAILS.

    Dream's POV The air was too still. The hum of the machines around me wasn’t comforting anymore, it was mocking, rhythmic, sterile, lifeless. Gloss’s body lay limp on the cot in the center of the room, wires tangled around him like silver vines. His eyes fluttered now and then, but they never opened. He wasn’t here. He was somewhere else, inside the system, fighting a ghost I should’ve deleted a long time ago. I didn’t know how long he’d been in there. Minutes felt like hours, hours felt like a slow bleed through my veins. The holographic interface above him showed flickering code, looping commands that made no sense. I’d built the system myself, line by line, confident in its perfection. Now, it was a battlefield, and every keystroke I made felt like throwing punches into the void. “Gloss,” I said softly, gripping his hand, hoping he could hear me somehow. His skin was warm but unmoving, the faint pulse beneath his wrist steady yet shallow. “You promised you’d stay.” The system co

  • LEVEL UP MY COLD CEO {MxM}   CHAPTER 87: THE DIGITAL WAR.

    Gloss POV When the world disappeared, it wasn’t darkness that met me. It was static. A blinding field of white noise surrounded me, each fragment of light flickering like broken pixels. The air, or whatever passed for air here, was heavy with data streams, whispering lines of corrupted code. I blinked, and the ground beneath me rearranged itself into glass panels showing fragments of memories. My memories. Dream's. Adrian’s. All bleeding into one chaotic mosaic. I was inside the system now. The real world, the office, Dream’s shouts, the alarms, had vanished. Only this warped digital landscape remained. Buildings built from binary rose and collapsed within seconds, the horizon shifting like a breathing organism. The air tasted like metal and electricity. I exhaled slowly. “Alright, Adrian. Where are you?” The answer came as laughter. It echoed from everywhere, threading through the glitched air like smoke. Smooth, taunting, maddeningly familiar. Then he appeared. Adrian’s dig

  • LEVEL UP MY COLD CEO {MxM}   CHAPTER 86: CODE REAWAKENING.

    Dream's POV The first thing I heard was the alarm. Not the usual morning chime from my wall panel, but the shrill, mechanical scream of a system breach. I shot upright in bed, the red emergency lights flashing through the penthouse like veins of fire. “System, report,” I barked, voice sharp and rough from sleep. No response. Only static. Then, the building itself seemed to shudder, screens flickering, locks disengaging, cameras twitching like they were alive. My breath came quick, cold realization sinking in. This wasn’t just a glitch. Something was inside. I reached for my wrist console, scanning the alerts. Every line of code scrolled in crimson. Unauthorized access, central AI override, encrypted source unknown. Unknown? No. Not unknown. I’d seen that encryption before. Years ago. Adrian. The thought hit like ice water. I froze, staring at the corrupted data feed as fragments of his old coding signature bled through, the patterns, the encryption rhythm, even the precise sy

  • LEVEL UP MY COLD CEO {MxM}   CHAPTER 85: HAUNTING CODE.

    Gloss POV The static hum of the system was supposed to be gone. Dream had stabilized it after our last meltdown, and I’d sworn I’d keep it that way. But lately, the hum had changed. It had… a tone. A rhythm. Almost like breathing. At first, I told myself I was imagining things. Too much caffeine, too many nights tangled in corporate drama, and too many mornings pretending everything was normal. But when the lights in Dream’s penthouse flickered at exactly 3:33 a.m. for the third night in a row, and a voice, soft, low, unmistakable, murmured my name, I stopped pretending. “Gloss…” The sound came from the system interface near the wall. Its blue glow pulsed faintly like a heartbeat. I froze in bed, my hands gripping the sheets, every nerve alive. Dream shifted beside me but didn’t wake. I turned my head slowly, watching the console screen shimmer as if something…someone…was trapped inside it. “Gloss, can you hear me?” That voice. Calm, intimate, dangerous. Adrian. My chest tight
