VOLUME FIVE: HACK Hack: Gaining unauthorized access to data in a system. ... "Did you get him, Amanda?" Dean leans into my personal space to get a better view of my phone. Both of us watch the red and yellow ball on my screen bounce twice and break apart. I sigh in defeat. "That was my last try." The high-level dragon I've been trying to catch flies off my screen. "Dammit. That was my fourth time."

Then she said quietly, “Not exactly.” Sebastian stepped closer. “Then explain.” Vanessa took a slow breath. “There’s only one person in the world who could shut Ethan down that fast.” Leo looked curious. “Who?” Vanessa’s eyes moved to Sebastian. “A ghost.” Daniel frowned. “That’s not helpful.” Vanessa continued calmly. “The underground hacking world calls them Zero.” Leo’s eyebrows lifted slightly. “Cool name.” Sebastian looked serious. “You’re saying this hacker doesn’t work for anyone.” Vanessa nodded.

“In the past few weeks and months there have been several attempts to hack into the mainframe of my system an steal all the important secrets that have kept my company and this kingdom running” Uncle Desmond sat up straighter at that, he knew as well about the hacks that had been attempted. “Just recently my beta and cyber security specialist found out the people behind this” he pointed at the elders, “These men have paid a huge amount of money earned from sitting at this table and they have assisted in the hacks with their payment.” He pointed at Elder Hakon, “He not only sent some money, he offered his daughter as well” Domini

In a city wired with enough cameras to make Orwell vomit, I might as well be wearing a neon sign that says High Value Target. I wait for the train to lurch around a curve. As the car swings violently to the left, I move. I’m not a thief. I’m a hacker. But right now I’m smart enough to know that my biggest problem is visibility. They know what I was wearing when I ran, I need to change the optics.

He grabbed a remote control and pushed a button, causing one of the TVs to display graphs, charts, and numbers instead of pictures. "Let me get right to the point. I have a serious issue because someone stole from me, and I'm not at all happy about it. I want every penny returned." He gestured toward a photo, a video showing a tagged hacker claiming to be an Anonymous member. I glanced at Jaques; Anonymous was one of the most vicious hacker groups ever, and they were from the South Coast. They were engaged in human trafficking, tax evasion, and money laundering. Jaques whistled as Axel said, "Five hundred bucks. Do you not think, gentlemen, that is a lot of money to be thrown away?"

The hackers said in a panic, “I fell for it. They changed the company’s system. The reason I got in so easily was that they let me in on purpose. Now I am stuck in there and I can’t go out. What should I do?” “How is that possible? Aren’t you a high-level hacker? No one is better than you in Italy. No one can else can be better than you, except HK. Calm down. Try to find a way out.” The man comforted him. The hacker took off his cap, and the sweat dripped on the computer as his finger typed quickly on the keyboard. In the end, his hand began to cramp. But the codes on his computer disappeared one by one, and finally, the screen

Eva scolded him with a frown on her face. “Who told you I don't have a job? I'm one of the top world ranking hackers that is highly sorted out for and hired for different jobs. I have lots of skill.” Harry proudly boasted over the phone to Eva who just rolled her eyes at him. Harry was currently one of the highest paid and fastest hackers in the world that Eva knew. Armed with a fountain of knowledge in computer science and engineering, he graduated at the top of his classes. Passing college with flying colors and endless achievements, she couldn’t believe he entered the shady world of hacking, instead of putting his degree into good use.

He wanted to teach Rose a lesson. He kept tapping his fingers on the keyboard, and he broke through one firewall after another. The Hodkinson Group was suddenly attacked by a hacker, and its IT Department staff was urgently called back to work overtime.

she said. I looked at her in confusion. “Yeah? If you have figured it out, I’d like to know. It’s driving me crazy.” I was irritable. She grinned and took the pen from my hand, writing over the top of the random letters and numbers that we had been working on, transforming them into one word. BITE. “I’d guess the hacker is a wolf,” Hope said mildly. I looked at the word, my vision clouded. I knew who went by that name and I couldn’t believe it. Hope picked up on my fury.

Despite her pout, Amanda reluctantly entered the car. "Dickson, what do you want?" Amannda inquired. Dickson sneered, casting a wicked smile at Amanda. "Still pretending to be clueless?" "How would I know unless you tell me?" Amanda retorted. Jack forced a smile and clarified, "Miss Amanda, a hacker breached the system at Mr. Dickson's engagement banquet today." Amanda became even more perplexed. "And then what?" "We traced the hacker's IP address, and it leads to your home," Jack explained. After all, Francis was still a child. Despite his proficiency in cracking computer programs, his youth made it inevitable for him to make mistakes and inadvertently expose
