Wrong Target

In a world where memories are currency, what would you pay to forget... or to remember who you really are? Lyra Vale is a memory-thief-an illegal "shifter" who trades in stolen pasts for clients desperate to forget pain, shame, or secrets. In the gleaming, glass-domed city of Virelia, where the privileged buy perfection and the broken are erased, Lyra has always played by her own rules-until the day she steals a memory that belongs to her. Now hunted by the system she once served and haunted by fragments of a past she doesn't remember choosing to forget, Lyra must unravel a conspiracy that runs deeper than she ever imagined. Because the truth buried in her mind could destroy the city-or set it free. But time is running out. And in Virelia, remembering the wrong thing can get you permanently erased.

Once upon a time, I was as stupid as a dog. Wherever she went, I followed her, like a piece of chewing gum that could not be shaken off. I would eat shit and agree with her words. Everyone called me a "fool" and said that this was how my life would be, and how I would end. But when I finally woke up—— ...... "You said you were my wife but I do not deserve to be your husband? Oh, but look at your face! It's ugly to fit with mine even in a mere picture!" "Didn't you say you'd rather die than let me touch you? Now you're begging me, crying, wanting a son from me who looks like me—shouldn't you be dying instead?!" "Why is everyone saying I have been bullying? Sit back and watch, it's just the beginning." * * When the abandoned fool finally regained his memory, the whole world realized that they had offended the wrong person—they had to come begging for forgiveness.

Eli Turner was the invisible kid at Crestwood High. Skinny, quiet, and always buried in books, he was the prime target for bullies. Every day, he was shoved into lockers, laughed at in the cafeteria, and humiliated in the classroom. No one cared that he was a genius. No one cared that he had dreams. Least of all, Amelia Rhodes—the girl he once dared to admire from afar. The queen bee of Crestwood. She smiled at him once, and he thought maybe, just maybe, she was different. But that hope was shattered when she dumped a milkshake on his head during prom night, laughing with the rest of the crowd. "You're just a loser, Eli. Always have been, always will be," she spat, heels clicking away as the crowd jeered. Broken and humiliated, Eli almost gave up. Until the email arrived. "Welcome, Elijah Turner. You have unlocked your inheritance. The Turner Foundation and all its holdings are now yours." In disbelief, he opened the account. $250 million. Access to top private mentors, global influence, and a tech empire under his control. Now, Eli is returning—but not as the bullied nerd. This time, he’s the prodigy they never saw coming. With a new name, a sharpened edge, and the power to bring his enemies to their knees. Amelia will choke on her laughter. The bullies will bow. And Crestwood will never forget the day Eli Turner rewrote his story. Will Eli seek vengeance, or redemption?
