The Estate: Legacy of the Future

Philip Graciasta’s life is thrown into turmoil when his father, Alexander—a brilliant tech magnate with far-reaching ambitions—dies unexpectedly, leaving behind a massive fortune, a labyrinth of secrets, and a future fraught with danger. At the funeral, Philip meets the enigmatic and captivating Galatea, who has been mysteriously appointed as the trustee of his father's estate. What should have been a straightforward inheritance quickly spirals into a treacherous game of power, deception, and high-stakes corporate warfare. Determined to claim his rightful place at the helm of Andromeda Industry Group, Philip faces formidable opposition from within his own family. His powerful mother, Victoria, a real estate mogul, sees Galatea as a threat to her own ambitions. His half-sister, Lilianna, quietly manipulates events behind the scenes, serving as an informant for a shadowy organization whose true purpose remains unclear. As Philip struggles to untangle his family’s web of betrayals, he realizes that the stakes are far higher than he imagined. In his quest for control, Philip is reluctantly drawn into the larger forces at play. Dr. Max Sokraberg, a scientific visionary and Alexander’s closest friend, becomes his unlikely ally. Max holds the key to revolutionary technologies that promise to reshape the future, but these advancements also carry ethical and existential challenges. Philip soon discovers that Alexander's ultimate vision involves more than just the future of their company—it involves the future of humanity itself. The specifics of this grand plan are shrouded in mystery, but its implications ripple through everything Philip encounters. Meanwhile, Enrich Falconhyde, a former diplomat from Osgoria is thrust into a dark transformation. Once a peace-loving idealist, Enrich is consumed by grief and rage following his fiancée’s tragic death in an assassination attempt. His sorrow turns him into a warmonger, zealously supporting Osgoria’s extremist military faction. This faction seeks total domination over Alyssia, at any cost—even if it means mass civilian casualties. Enrich's descent into fanaticism mirrors the growing instability of their world as wars and social tensions rose all over the globe paralleling technological transformations. As global tensions rise and the secret organization pulls strings behind the scenes, Philip must navigate a rapidly changing landscape. Galatea, despite becoming ever more intimate with Philip, remains an enigma, concealing a secret that could shake Philip’s very understanding of reality. In a world teetering on the edge of war and technological transformation, Philip must unravel his father’s mysteries and decide whether to embrace or reject the future Alexander envisioned.

Fostered Obsession

Prologue In the heart of the city, where danger simmered just beneath the surface, the Blackwood name commanded both reverence and fear. At the helm stood Damien Blackwood, a formidable mafia king known for his cold, calculating demeanor and unwavering grip on power. At thirty, he had earned a reputation as a ruthless leader, feared by enemies and allies alike. Yet beneath the hardened exterior, there simmered a darkness—an obsession that revolved around his foster sister, Amara Lane. Amara was only eighteen, a gentle soul lost in the shadows of the world around her. An introvert by nature, she often found solace in the quiet corners of the sprawling mansion, retreating into the pages of books or the comfort of her art. While she navigated the complexities of a dangerous life with resilience, the chaotic mafia world surrounding her remained a mystery. She loved her family fiercely, but the deeper, darker truths of their legacy were a distant echo, one she had yet to fully grasp. For Damien, however, Amara was everything. She was a breath of fresh air in his suffocating existence, a light that pierced the darkness of his life. He watched her with an intensity that both thrilled and terrified him, the line between brotherly love and obsession blurring with each passing day. She was blissfully unaware of the grip she had on his heart, believing their bond was simply that of siblings forged in circumstance. Yet, as the walls of their world began to close in—rival gangs scheming in the shadows and whispers of betrayal echoing through the mansion—Damien’s obsession grew more perilous. He could not bear the thought of losing her, not to the dangers that lurked outside their door or to the weight of the legacy that bound them. He would do anything to keep her close, to shield her from the horrors that surrounded them, even if it meant crossing lines he never thought he would. As the tension mounted and the stakes rose, Amara felt the world shifting around her. Confused by Damien's intensity, she struggled to understand the shifting dynamics of their relationship. With every look, every touch, she sensed something deeper lurking just beneath the surface, but the full realization of Damien’s obsession eluded her. Fostered Obsession is a haunting tale of unspoken desires and hidden truths, where love becomes a prison and loyalty is tested in the darkest of times. ---
