Force Shut Down Laptop

Althéa mène une vie normale jusqu'à ce que, à l'approche de son 25 ème anniversaire, elle soit prise en chasse par des forces qu'elle ne comprend pas. Elle est sauvée in extremis par Lorenzo, qui se présente comme un protecteur. Il l'installe dans un de ses appartements sécurisés, sous couvert d'un programme de protection témoin. Althéa est attirée par son mystère, son contrôle et la lueur d'humanité qu'elle devine sous son armure de mafioso. Cependant, sa nature de loup-garou commence à s'éveiller : sens décuplés, cauchemars de forêts et de courses sous la lune. Althéa se retrouve au cœur d'un triangle déchirant : · Lorenzo lui offre sécurité, luxe et une forme d'amour humain et civilisé. Il lui apprend à se défendre, à lire dans les jeux de pouvoir, et lui promet de la protéger même de sa propre famille si nécessaire. Il veut la "dompter" pour la garder à ses côtés dans son monde. · Kael lui offre la vérité sur elle-même, la promesse de la liberté et la puissance de la meute. Il lui apprend à embrasser sa nature sauvage, à courir sous la lune et à comprendre sa force. Il veut la "libérer" pour qu'elle règne à ses côtés dans la forêt. Parallèlement, Kael doit affronter le Alpha de sa meute, qui voit en Althéa une menace pour son autorité. Le climax a lieu lors de la nuit de la pleine lune rouge, où le pouvoir d'Althéa s'éveille pleinement. Les deux hommes, ennemis jurés, doivent former une alliance fragile pour la sauver des griffes de la mafia et de la meute rebelle.

Zachary Quinn suddenly develops a fondness for going to a massage parlor after I'm discharged from the hospital—I was in an accident. He excitedly tells me that the masseuse there has the best skills he's ever experienced. "They even have free food and fruits! I bring my laptop there with me to work when I get tired at the office." I don't know why he's telling me these things. He knows my father got caught cheating at a massage parlor. I hate those places. It's only later that I learn the relaxation he describes isn't what I imagined. He's long since gone bad in places that I can't see.

The student I once sponsored, Lillian Pegg, jacked my identity, slapped on the "rich heiress" title, and started tossing out houses and cars like she was some fairy godmother for "underprivileged" students. Her big mission? Making sure everyone had a roof over their head. My in-laws? Wrapped around her finger. They swore up and down she'd saved their lives. Even Liam—my son with my late husband—acted like she was the only mom he'd ever had. Meanwhile, I was puking blood from ulcers, and everyone treated it like a bad improv act. Liam bought every word out of her mouth. Thought she and my husband were some kind of twin-flame couple and labeled me the evil baby snatcher. Fast-forward: I got locked in a bedroom and left to bleed out. Then I woke up. It was the exact day Lillian was playing Santa Claus. The crowd around her practically worshipped her. "You're the kindest boss in the world! You care about our food, clothes, housing, everything. We'll support you and your company forever!" Yeah, not on my watch. I shut down all her privileges right then and there. This time? Lillian and that backstabbing son of mine were gonna eat regret for the rest of their lives.

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.
