Sinopse

"One misstep can lead to a violent love-triangle" In the year 2050, Planet Earth is under alien occupation. The Terils had taken control over the planet after humans were on the cusp of destroying all life due to their love for violence. The Terils were adamant in saving Earth and chose to preserve the planet by creating a unique marketing strategy that would involve a species of super humans known as the androids. The androids were humans with technology improvements. This created a new caste system where androids enjoyed the luxuries of life while humans fought and begged for any scrap left. Among the chaos stood syndicates: crime groups led by androids that stole and started wars among each other for ownership of the city. Some humans took advantage of this opportunity and delved into a life of crime. Lara Doe, a twisted Robin Hood, has success in robbing from androids homes and syndicate bosses until she finds herself caught up with the possessive Weston Syndicate Boss-Noe Weston. Noe claims her as his and forces her into marriage. Lara soon finds herself involved in a turf war between two android bosses and reunited with a long-lost friend who has been in love with her. A deadly love triangle forms and Lara must decide if she wants to be seduced by the handsome and ruthless Noe Weston or her sweet childhood friend Adrian Dolan?

Chapter 1
 Year of 2060- Planet Earth 10 years after Teril Occupation.  Country: New Colonial Territory  City of Saratoga The streets are in chaos again. The Terils had dropped the weekly food and necessity shipment for the city of 50,000 people. Yes, it is one large crate for a large mass of hungry and dirty people. Saratoga residents claw and climb over each other as the Teril aliens back away, cattle prods at the ready. It hardly seemed to matter since my neighbors acted like rabid animals, screaming and fighting for every last morsel. Some even took more than they needed. The Teril guards hardly cared if anyone got fed; if a

" Who the hell are you?" The crouched man demands. F--uck. How do I get out of this? Aller always reminded me to remain calm if I was caught during a job and play the dumb card. This technique always served me well in the past. People found me attractive, so I would always play off their lusts and sympathies to escape a compromised job. Somehow I don't think a Weston henchman would be gullible. Well doesn't hurt to try, does it? Men like this only think with one part of their body.I cover my mouth and giggle, fluttering my eyelids at the intimidating blonde man."I'm just a girl taking a swim in the pool. Who are you?" The man's face morphs into a terrifying glare, his arms shooting out and grabbing my body out of the pool. "Don't play with me, girl! Do you know who's estate this is or who I am? I'm Evander Weston, son of Noe Weston-the boss of the Weston Syndicate! In case you haven't gathered, you are trespassing on Weston Territory!" My heart flutters at his revelation. Fuck!

Chapter 3
Two guards follow behind Noe and me as we walk up a winding staircase to the second floor. Unlike the first floor, the second contained hallways on either side of the landing. Noe turns to the right and walks into the first room. I follow at his heels, stopping short when I realize what the room is for. "No." I try to exit, but the two guards create an impenetrable wall behind me. Noe wraps his arms around me, pulling me towards the center of the room. "You don't have a choice."My eyes widen in fear at the sight of the colorless medical capsule in front of me. It reminded me of a cocoon or a hammock. Still, instead of soft fabric enveloping me, hard gray plastic would surround me. Standing next to the capsule is a striking female. She was tall, with shiny purple hair. Her golden skin glowed under the fluorescent lights. "Theta. She's here." Noe gruffly announces.The female turns and nods. She was a young Teril that was certain. What she was doing in the employ of the Wes

 "Umm, what?" I raise an eyebrow at Noe. "I'm not going to your gala if that is what you're implying." "I beg to differ." Noe steps closer to me. "You are my fiancee, and I will present you as such." I bark out a laugh. "Please! Didn't you just finish insulting my humanity? Thought you didn't want a weak human Queen?" Noe grits his teeth. "That is not what I meant, Lara. Please don't twist my words! I am only trying to protect you! Do you know how many enemies I have? What they would do when they discover I have a human weakness?" He sits down on the edge of the bed. A snicker escapes my lips."Well then, forgive me. Here I thought a man like you wants a woman as a trophy."  Noe's eyes trail over my body, a sharp glint appearing in his eyes. "

"Be on your best behavior, Miss Lara. I know you humans can resort cave to your basic...needs." Odessa looks down at me. What the hell is this android's problem with humans? "Are you implying I am a Neanderthal?" I wrap my hand around her arm, pulling us to the side of an entrance. "No! Of course not. Merely that you humans can act like humans. It's not your fault. You can't help your urges." Odessa gives me a small smile. I swallow the snark that dares fall out of my mouth and just mirror her smile. "Very well." "We are almost there. Come." Odessa walks around to the entrance and through tall white curtains. "The Esteemed Westons would like to welcome you to their annual gala benefitting the humans of Saratoga. All proceeds from tonight will be distributed evenly to human crisis centers. Please grab a mask from a nearby server and enjoy your evening

Chapter 6
"SHIT!" I scream as I rattle the handcuffs. I hated being restrained! Panic forms in my chest, and I start gasping for breath. Everything starts to close in. Memories of being shackled to a bed resurface. Aller would chain me up when I disobeyed him or didn't give him a cut of my stolen earnings. He would keep me in the room for days, shackled to a bed in the dark with a pot if I needed to relieve myself. My only friends, Fiona and Adrian, would sneak in with food and company. They were my calm in that raging pit. I focus on my childhood friends, concentrating on their features, their voices, and their laughs. Finally, my breathing begins to slow, and the pressure in my chest disappears.I take another deep breath before focusing on my restraints. I shift my wrists around the cuffs, feeling for any empty space between my skin and the cold metal. My right cuff gave a little when I kept pushing my wrist against it. I turn my wrist, spreading my fingers out. I slowly move my

A ticklish sensation spreads through my arm. I groan, waving my arm, trying to slap away whatever was touching me. The tickling only intensifies with my jerky movement. "STOP!" I mumble into the pillow. The tickling stops but is quickly replaced by a sharp shock. "Oww!" I shoot out of bed. Alarmed, I look around my empty room, trying to find the source of my annoyance. "Next time you ignore me, I will do much worse!" A voice crackles from above. My eyes land on my target, a security camera with an outstretched rod. How the hell did that thing tickles and shock me? Gods androids had too much time on their hands! Throwing the duvet off my body, I stomp in full view of the camera. "Is that really necessary? Watching me while I sleep!?" I raise a finger to the camera in a crude gesture."Can't be too sure with you. Remember, I fished you out of my pool. Go to your tablet; I have your assignment for the day."I dramatically roll my eyes as I make my way to the small tablet. A n

* Cough *Cough*I take in a deep breath, only to inhale thick dust. My body is screaming in pain. I groaned, trying to buck a piece of steel pipe off, but I almost passed out from the pain when I stretched my right leg. Fantastic. Now I will be at Weston's mercy. I look around for a makeshift crutch. Yahtzee! A thin rod pokes out of the rubble next to me. I gently pull it out of the wreckage, wedging it between two solid pieces of iron. I shift my weight on the steel pipe, wincing as I pull my weight on my left side. Once I am standing, I look around the messy warehouse. "YOU!" Darla's shrill voice calls. The dark-skinned woman glares at me. How can this woman look so meticulous in a pile of rubble? "Get up, bitch!" I hold my hands up, signaling to the android I am unarmed. "What are you on about, Darla?" I demand."Oh! You think it's a coincidence that one of my buildings happened to explode with your arrival?" Darla pointed her finger at me. "Darla, I had nothing t

 When Evander greets the car escort at the front of the Weston Mansion, Noe's tender gaze disappears. "Get out of me!" he growls, pushing me roughly into the footwell. "OW!" What is his deal? He was the definition of hot and cold! I glare at him as he opens the back door. "Get her to Theta! I can't have her broken." He commands Evander as he pushes past him and answers a call. Evander's eyes snap to my disheveled state. "What happened to you?" His smirk turns to a sneer. Guess I'm not getting any sympathy from the younger Weston. "Nothing much, explosion, rubble fell down on me broke my leg, no biggie. How was your day?" I scoot across the bench, reaching the door Evander is blocking. "Could you..." I wave my arm in a shoo gesture. He curses at me, bending down and scooping me up. I let out a startled grunt, wrapping my arms around his neck. "Try to keep the noise down. I don't want anyone to s

Three days. Three days of being shut down in this mansion, and I'm done. I've never been one to stay still. It's why I make a great thief. I have gotten excellent at running. This place...was no better than the white lab I grew up in. I was one of the human children that were not born naturally. I was conceived in a test tube, a result of Terils mixing DNA for the "ultimate human." Guess they failed, considering I didn't pass the android assessment.The difference between my two prisons was the aesthetic. The Weston Mansion had amusements that distracted me, but it was still not better than being confined in a white room. In both chambers, I was an asset to be used as they saw fit. I hear the familiar heavy footsteps of the guards outside my door. Ever since Abigail was dragged into my room, Noe has kept guards around my room 24/7. Proof that my fiancee didn't trust me at all. I wouldn't expect any less, considering I was making secret alliances with Darla and Theta behind hi
