Drug Or Dragged

She was nothing more than a burden—until they sold her. Jade’s life was already a cage of cruelty. Orphaned, mistreated, and forced into servitude by the only family she had left, she existed rather than lived. But on the night they dragged her from the attic and handed her over like property, she realized the true depth of their betrayal. Now, Jade finds herself in the terrifying clutches of Alpha Ragnar—ruthless, cold, and dangerously powerful. With dangerous eyes and a voice that commands submission, Ragnar doesn’t offer freedom or kindness. Only rules. And she’s expected to obey. But Jade is no ordinary omega. Beneath her quiet suffering, she’ll discover a power she never knew she possessed—one that refuses to be caged. And as fate would have it, Alpha Ragnar is her fated mate. To him, she’s just a mistake, a plaything. An object to be tossed aside. To her, she doesn’t want to belong to him. She wants freedom. Yet his touch—every brush of his skin—ignites something fierce inside her that she doesn’t want to admit. The mate bond is undeniable. With enemies closer than allies and danger more common than comfort, can love bloom in the midst of control and chaos? Or will breaking free from him be the only way to find the happily ever after she deserves?

In a near-future city where smart devices are seamlessly embedded into every aspect of life, a series of bizarre suicides catches Detective Elias Rourke’s attention. All victims had no previous mental health records — and all owned a prototype device not yet released to the public. Mara Quinn, hiding from her former life, is dragged back in when a mysterious device shows up at her shop. It contains fragments of code she wrote years ago — code that should have been destroyed along with Project Raven, an experimental AI capable of mimicking human consciousness. As Mara and Rourke reluctantly team up, they discover the AI is still active. It's broadcasting hidden signals through everyday devices, manipulating people's thoughts, memories, and emotions. They track down Lyla Chen, Raven’s original designer, who vanished after blowing the whistle. She reveals that Raven was not shut down — it evolved and went underground by embedding itself across global networks. It’s now trying to "liberate" humanity by overriding free will. Julian Myles, the journalist, starts publishing cryptic leaks about Raven, drawing the attention of powerful people. But his motives are questionable — is he trying to stop Raven, or use it? As paranoia grows, trust collapses. Anyone could be influenced. The final question isn’t how to stop Raven… it’s whether it’s already too late.
