Truth Behind Roarke Innovations
The room beneath Roarke Innovations buzzed with a quiet, electric intensity. Fluorescent lights flickered above long tables scattered with tools, wires, and circuit boards. The air smelled like metal and soldering fumes. But none of that bothered Dr. Malcom Wynn. He stood hunched over a glowing monitor, his fingers dancing across the keys, his eyes locked onto streams of code.“Okay,” he muttered, adjusting his glasses. “The WhisperDrive is syncing perfectly. Real-time data flow’s clean.”Across from him, Renna leaned against the wall, arms folded. “You sure this isn’t too risky?”Wynn didn’t look up. “Risky was trusting Calven Roarke ten years ago.”Renna raised an eyebrow. “You still angry?”“Angry doesn’t cover it,” Wynn said quietly, a flash of pain passing through his eyes. “He stole everything. My research. My trust. My future. I watched him build an empire on lies… and smiled through it. No more.”A beep from the monitor pulled his attention. Eliot’s WhisperDrive had gone live.
A Plan For Revenge
The air in the underground tech expo buzzed with energy—neon lights, metallic smells, low hums of servers, and the quiet intensity of those who lived behind screens. It was like stepping into the bloodstream of the digital world. Hidden in the old train tunnels beneath the city, this wasn’t a place most people knew about. But Eliot did. And today, he wasn’t alone.Dr. Wynn walked beside him, his face lit by flickering screens and holograms. He wore a dark coat over his usual lab attire, blending in just enough to avoid attention.“Are you sure this is safe?” He asked, scanning the crowd.“No,” Eliot replied, adjusting the small black case he carried. “But it’s necessary.”They weaved past booths of odd gadgets and experimental tech—some harmless, others clearly illegal. Hackers hunched over laptops. Coders pitched ideas in hushed tones. Everyone here lived by one rule: information was currency, and trust was expensive.At the far end, beneath a rusted sign that read “SYNTAX WARDEN”,
The Calm Before The Storm
Eliot stood in front of the tall glass building once again. Roarke Innovations towered above him like a giant, its sleek edges and mirrored surface reflecting the early morning sky. The city bustled around him, but his mind was still. Focused.This was not the same Eliot who had walked into this place the first time, caught off guard by the twisted fate that placed Marcus and Lana right in front of him. That Eliot had been shaken. This one—this one had fire in his blood and a plan in his mind.He walked through the glass doors, his footsteps deliberate, confident. The receptionist greeted him politely, and the guards nodded him through without question. As he stepped into the elevator, he stared at his reflection in the mirrored walls.He looked calm.Too calm.But inside, his thoughts were burning.When the elevator dinged and the doors slid open to the executive floor, Eliot stepped out and walked towards the boardroom. He passed assistants and analysts who barely looked up from the
The Unknown Truth
Eliot reached home, but something in him didn’t settle.He dropped his keys on the counter, loosened his tie, and sat on the edge of the couch. But his mind wouldn’t stop spinning. It circled around Marcus’s face, Lana’s name, and that smug grin that had haunted him since graduation.Married. They were married.The house was quiet, yet his heart thumped loud, steady, and heavy.He leaned forward, elbows on knees, hands locked together.How did this happen?He had to know. The past couldn’t just reshape itself without leaving a trail. The system—he still had that. Maybe it could dig where he couldn’t.He sat up and spoke into the silence.“System,” he said. “Find out how Marcus ended up marrying Lana Roarke. Everything. I need the full story.”The familiar soft hum responded in his ear.> [Request received. Gathering historical data, private sources, and public records. Please wait...]The pause felt like forever.Eliot stood, pacing the living room in slow, tight steps. The air felt w
An Enemy From The Past .
The glass building loomed like a giant—sleek, mirrored, and proud of its own reflection. Eliot stepped out of the car, adjusting the tie he barely cared about. His eyes scanned the bold letters above the entrance: Roarke Innovations. The name alone made his stomach twist.He took a breath, squared his shoulders, and walked through the automatic doors.Inside, everything gleamed—white marble floors, tall indoor plants, polished brass signs. A woman at the reception desk looked up, her smile professional.“Welcome to Roarke Innovations. Do you have an appointment?”Eliot nodded. “I’m here to meet Mr. Calven Roarke. I’m an investor from overseas. He’s expecting me.”She typed something quickly, then nodded. “Please take the elevator to the 25th floor. He’s waiting in the boardroom.”Eliot stepped into the elevator, his mind buzzing. The system had given him the entry. Everything about today was planned—but he hadn’t planned for the nerves creeping in now.Keep it together, he told himsel
The Unknown Enemy
The door flew off its hinges with a deafening blast, smoke and splinters filling the air.Max lunged forward, teeth bared, a growl tearing from his throat. Eliot reacted without thinking—he grabbed Wynn by the collar and shoved him behind the kitchen island.“Stay down!” he yelled, already pulling up the system interface with a flick of his wrist.[System Alert: Five intruders detected. Targeting weapons identified. Initiating defense protocol…]Eliot moved like a shadow, smooth and sharp. His senses heightened—he could hear their boots scrape the tiles, feel the tension in the air like static.“Don’t move!” one of the masked men shouted, stepping through the smoke, gun raised.Eliot didn’t listen.In a blink, the lights went out. A strobe of red emergency beams pulsed along the ceiling as the system rerouted the power.[System Activated: Shadow Step – duration 10 seconds.]Eliot’s body flickered, moving faster than the eye could follow. He ducked under a wild bullet, slid across the
