The Secretary's Shadow

nneka_monica
Maya Adeniyi is a "shadow." Working out of a crowded bullpen in a Lagos high-rise, she is the secret architect behind the success of Sterling Transport. She possesses a surgical mind for data and a genius for corporate strategy, but none of it carries her name. Instead, her demanding boss, Juliana Vane, takes the credit, the bonuses, and the glory, while Maya stays invisible to keep her paycheck and support her younger sisters. ​For Maya, invisibility is a survival tactic—until the system breaks. ​When a high-stakes maritime crisis strands forty-two freight vessels in the North Sea, the company’s automated logic fails, and the senior directors are paralyzed. But deep within the company's digital audit logs, a pattern emerges that catches the eye of the man on the 89th floor. ​Marcus Sterling, the enigmatic and cold CEO, doesn't care about hierarchy; he cares about precision. He recognizes a "ghost" in the data—a mind operating at a level far above the executives in the boardroom. ​Pulled from the safety of her cubicle and summoned to the untouchable heights of executive power, Maya is given a single, impossible command: Solve it. ​Now, Maya must decide if she is ready to trade her anonymity for influence. To save the company, she must present a radical, high-risk solution that will expose her boss’s incompetence and put a target on her own back. In a world where power is stolen and genius is hidden, Maya is about to find out what happens when the shadow finally steps into the light.

Little Snake Demon Stop Defying Heaven!

Contains Mature/Explicit scenes. She was the most feared little snake demon in the immortal realm, talented, ruthless, and allergic to nonsense. Heaven, apparently, was not amused. One heavenly tribulation later, Bai Lingling wakes up in the body of Yun Qingqing: a weak, ugly, “trash” young miss with a ruined face, a shattered core, and a family full of snakes trying to steal her city, her Phoenix Vein, and her life. Her scumbag fiancé wants to discard her. Her scheming uncle wants her dead. A princess pretending to be a maid wants her fiancé. Cute. But just when she’s ready to burn the whole plot down alone, the “harmless little beast” she once saved turns out to be anything but harmless. Mo Lingxu. Demon Lord of the Nine Hells. Cold, dangerous, and infuriatingly shameless. He follows her like a shadow, red eyes gleaming with dark amusement, calling her “little snake” while promising to protect her, repay her kindness, and never let her go. He says fate bound them together. His hands say he wants to claim every inch of her. Bai Lingling only wants revenge, her city, and her pretty face back. Instead she gets a useless fiancé, a fake princess she wants to drown, and a demon lord who keeps looking at her like she already belongs in his bed. Submit and prosper. Oppose her and perish. Because this “weak, ugly” young miss? She’s about to flip the heavens upside down. Mo Lingxu, smirking: “Little snake… you kissed me first. Are you going to take responsibility?” Bai Lingling: “Shameless!”

Evolving My Mythic Legion With A Legendary Skill

In a futuristic world, humans evolved beyond anyone’s imagination. Discovering new races, facing dangers, and almost facing extinction several times over, yet, as always, they adapted—becoming lords and obtaining their Domains on distant planets. The world was filled with terrifying creatures, those deadly creatures that plagued every race, every planet. In the year 7026, like every year, a large group of eighteen-year-old teenagers finally left Earth to awaken and challenge different Domains. Among them was Neil… Injected with the awakening fluid, Neil awakened two skills only to be betrayed, kidnapped and thrown in a death zone. While others received blessings, powerful abilities and grand titles, Neil awakened with synergy so pathetic—so pitifully low that it drew laughter, scorn, and even disgust. But that wasn't the worst part. Betrayed and cornered inside the death zone, Neil had two choices: Give up… or keep suffering the extreme torment again and again. A death trap with no exit and no chance of survival, the only option was to slaughter the creatures of nightmare. A domain with impossible difficulty, extreme monstrosities… Finally!! He became a lord! Becoming the first to conquer the highest-class domain, creating the strongest legion… Mythic Class army of Giants, Dragons, and more!! Discord: https://discord.gg/5Bp6Pb9UzN Extra chapters based on response I receive (GTs and Ps), that's all for now, peace out!!
