THE BILLIONAIRE'S BROKEN HEIR Break Me Free
Scarlett:PovThe black crystal pulsed in the center of the collapsing room.Dark.Alive.Like a heart made from pain.Scarlett stood frozen for one terrible second.Evelyn's final warning echoed through the falling walls.If you break it… you may never find your way back.Her breath caught.The white room around them was cracking apart, pieces of memory shattering into streams of blue light.The younger Dominic was gone.Freed.Only Scarlett and the present Dominic remained inside the collapsing machine.His eyes locked onto hers. "Scarlett."His voice was low.Careful.As if he already knew what she was thinking.Her heart pounded.If this crystal was the master command, then destroying it would sever the control system completely.It would free Dominic.It would stop the transfer.It would end Project Dawn.But at what cost?Her way back.Her life.Her future.A thousand thoughts crashed through her mind.Then Dominic stepped closer. "You can't do this."Her breath trembled. "Why?"
THE BILLIONAIRE'S BROKEN HEIR The Memory That Broke Him
Scarlett:PovThe room was ice cold.Scarlett stood frozen at the doorway, staring at the boy in the chair.Young Dominic.No older than sixteen.His dark hair fell over his forehead, damp with sweat.His hands were strapped to the metal armrests.Wires ran from his temples into the glowing machine behind him.His face was pale.Terrified.And yet there was still a spark of defiance in his eyes.Scarlett's chest tightened painfully.This was where it began.The breaking.The shaping.The pain Evelyn had buried inside him.Beside Scarlett, the present Dominic had gone still.His jaw was tight.His eyes unreadable.But she could feel the storm inside him.No one should ever have had to live through this.No one.The memory Evelyn stood at the center of the room.Elegant.Cold.Impossibly calm.Her voice sliced through the silence. "Pain creates strength."Scarlett's stomach turned.No.Pain created scars.Fear.Walls.Silence.The younger Dominic strained against the restraints. "I hate
THE BILLIONAIRE'S BROKEN HEIR The Boy the Machine Chose
Scarlett:PovThe machine screamed.Blue light cracked across the digital chamber like lightning.Scarlett's breath hitched.No.Not Dominic.Not him.Evelyn's laugh echoed through the corridor, cold and victorious."If not you…"Her voice curled through the system like smoke."…then him."Scarlett's chest tightened painfully. "No!"She rushed toward the crystal again, but the floor beneath her split apart into glowing lines of code.A barrier rose between her and the root core.Transparent.Shimmering.Unbreakable.On the other side, the crystal pulsed faster.Scarlett slammed both palms against it. "Stop!"The barrier sent a violent shock through her hands.She gasped and stumbled back.The machine was protecting the transfer.Protecting Dominic.No.No, no, no.In the real world, Dominic's body jerked violently beside the neural chair.His eyes widened.Scarlett could hear his voice through the fading connection. "Victor!"Then static.Victor's face darkened as the monitors flashed
THE BILLIONAIRE'S BROKEN HEIR Inside the Machine
Scarlett: PovDarkness.Complete.Endless.For a moment, Scarlett felt nothing.No sound.No weight.No breath.Only silence.Then A sharp pulse of light exploded around her.Scarlett gasped.Her eyes flew open.She was standing.But not in the server room.Not in the university tower.Not anywhere real.A long corridor stretched before her, glowing in cold blue light.The walls shimmered like glass.Lines of code moved across them like flowing water.Student ID numbers.Names.Faces.Data.Thousands of them.Her breath caught.She was inside it.Inside the machine.The university network.Project Dawn.The system had pulled her consciousness into its core.Her heart hammered.No.This wasn't real.And yet every sound echoed too clearly.Every light felt too sharp.Every breath felt too heavy.A voice filled the corridor.Soft.Familiar."Welcome back, Subject Seven."Scarlett froze.No.She turned sharply.At the far end of the corridor stood Evelyn.Or ratherA version of her.Perf
THE BILLIONAIRE'S BROKEN HEIR Dawn Over Veridian Crown
Scarlett:Pov The words on the broken screen refused to disappear.VERIDIAN CROWN UNIVERSITY, MAIN CAMPUS NETWORKScarlett stared at it, her blood turning cold.No.No, no, no.Evelyn had moved everything.Every file.Every subject profile.Every synchronization protocol.The entire Project Dawn network now lived inside the university system.Her university.The place where everything began.Dominic's jaw tightened beside her. "She planned this from the start."Victor let out a slow breath, one hand still pressed to his side. "The campus network connects to every building."Julian's face darkened. "Dormitories, labs, security systems, digital records…"Camille's eyes widened. "And student IDs."Scarlett's pulse slammed against her ribs.Thousands of students.All connected.All vulnerable.Luna's voice trembled. "She could use the entire campus as a live system."Silence.Because they all knew what that meant.This was no longer about hidden labs and secret archives.This was about e
THE BILLIONAIRE'S BROKEN HEIR The Last Server
Scarlett: Pov The stairwell door groaned open.A rush of cold air swept up from below.Scarlett stood at the top step, staring into the darkness.The sublevel archive.The last hidden core.The final heartbeat of Project Dawn.Her pulse quickened.This was it.The end.Or the beginning of something worse.Dominic stepped beside her, one hand pressed lightly against his bandaged side. "You don't have to go first."Despite everything, Scarlett gave the faintest smile. "I'm not scared of dark staircases anymore."Julian let out a breath that almost sounded like a laugh. "After everything tonight, that's what you're brave about?"Victor shot him a look. "Focus."Luna stood close to Scarlett's other side.Her face was pale, but there was a new strength in her eyes. "I know this place."Scarlett turned to her. "You've been down there?"Luna nodded slowly. "Once."Her voice lowered. "They took me there when they started the conditioning."Scarlett's chest tightened.This building had stole
