The Right Move

REWIRED: The Rightful Heir

Seven years ago, the Kingdom of Songrin burned. Once a marvel of mechanical brilliance, ruled by the fierce and fair Mechans Aiden and Moira, Songrin fell into ruin when their throne was seized in a brutal coup. On the night of their assassination, their only daughter, Princess Zora, was critically wounded. Refusing to let her die with them, her parents sealed her inside an underground bunker, entrusting her broken body to their most loyal and brilliant Mechan—a master cyborg constructor bound by oath and circuitry. They didn’t just save her life. They rewired it. Now, Zora awakens from a regeneratory sleep meant to last twenty years—but something has triggered her return too soon. Half human, half machine, with no memory beyond her last scream, she emerges into a kingdom twisted by corruption, cruelty, and the reign of the man who destroyed her family: Horam. Haunted by the dream of her parents’ torture and the chilling words of the man who wanted to make her his slave-bride, Zora opens her eyes in the darkness. Her body may be repaired, but her heart is broken—and her fury is just beginning. As questions flood her waking mind, the Top Mechan reveals the truth: it's been seven years since the fall of Songrin. The world she knew is gone. But her destiny is not. Zora must navigate a realm ruled by violent duels, iron laws, and bleeding circuits. She must uncover what became of her mother, and reclaim her right to rule—but first, she must become more than a girl who once dreamed of vengeance. She must become a weapon. The revolution begins when she wakes. Hi Lovely readers. I really hope you'll enjoy this book and be a part of its growth by reading and engaging with me through comments.

I can set you just right

The boardroom was a wall of glass and judgment. At exactly 8:59 AM, Arielle pushed through the doors in a sharp navy dress that clung to her like confidence had been stitched into every seam. Her heels echoed across the floor as she approached the long, polished table where half a dozen stone-faced executives sat, murmuring over papers and steaming coffee. Dominic was already seated at the head of the table. He didn't look at her. Not at first. But he felt her enter. Just like gravity feels the moon. She took her spot near the screen, placed the tablet in front of her, and exhaled slowly. "You ready?" Dominic asked quietly, his voice low, unreadable. She turned to him with a sharp smile. "Born ready." He finally met her gaze—and for a second, something flickered behind his eyes. Not approval. Not yet. But something… closer than before. "Gentlemen," Dominic said to the table. "This is Arielle Sinclair. She'll be walking you through the market projections and proposed strategy updates for Q3." One of the older men raised a brow. "Her?" Arielle didn't flinch. "Yes. Me," she said, smiling sweetly. "Try to keep up." There was a pause—half stunned, half amused—and then, silence She launched into her presentation. And she nailed it. Clear. Sharp. Confident. She wasn't just parroting facts; she owned the numbers. Her explanations were quick, her slides precise, and her delivery unapologetically fierce. For the first time, they weren't looking at her legs or her lipstick. They were looking at her mind. And Dominic? He watched every second like a man watching a match ignite in a room full of gas. At one point, their eyes locked—and she saw it. A crack in his armor. Not desire. Not annoyance. But something like… respect. And it made her stomach flip in a way no designer bag ever had. When she concluded with a succinct, "Any questions?" the room was quiet. Then, one of the board members nodded. "Well done, Miss Sinclair. Concise and well-structured." Dominic didn't say a word. But his fingers drummed once against the table. A silent approval. The meeting ended. As the board members filed out, Dominic remained seated, watching her. She turned to him slowly. "Well?" she asked. He stood, approached, and said nothing until he was directly in front of her. "You surprised them." "And you?" His gaze dropped to her lips for a split second before meeting her eyes again. "I don't surprise easily." She stepped closer. "You didn't think I could do it." "I knew you could," he said, voice dark and steady. "I just didn't know if you would." She tilted her head. "So what now?" His eyes raked over her—not with lust, but with something more dangerous. Calculating. Hungry. "Now," he said slowly, "I stop holding back." She inhaled sharply. "What does that mean?" "It means if you're staying in this game, you better be ready to lose sometimes." She licked her lips. "I never lose." He smirked—slow, wolfish. "We'll see." And he walked out first. But this time? She followed with her chin high, her stride proud, and fire crackling in her chest. She hadn't just passed the test. She'd lit the room on fire. The hallway was quiet after the boardroom storm, but Arielle's heels still echoed like a victory march. She was glowing. Not just from the adrenaline of her flawless presentation, but from something else—something hotter, deeper. The way Dominic had looked at her afterward wasn't just professional respect. It was a crack in his walls. And she intended to widen it. She pressed the button for the elevator, and just as the doors slid open, a shadow fell over her shoulder. Dominic. Of course. He stepped in beside her without a word, towering, silent, composed. The doors closed. Silence. Tension. Air that thickened with each passing floor. She stood beside him, not touching, but close enough to feel the heat rolling off his body. Close enough to catch a whiff of his cologne—clean, dark, devasta
