Le Regret de Mon Mari au Cœur Froid

Pendant sept ans, Elara Thorne a vécu dans l'ombre de son propre mariage. Tandis que son mari, magnat de la technologie, Damien, couvrait d'attention sa maîtresse, Elara jouait le rôle de l'épouse d'entreprise parfaite—préparant son café, organisant son emploi du temps, et regardant sa fille de six ans, Cora, se rapprocher de l'autre femme. L'autre femme qui se trouvait être sa demi-sœur. Vivienne Dubois avait tout ce qu'Elara n'avait pas—le cœur de Damien, l'adoration de Cora, et le respect de tous chez Industries Thorne. Quand Elara est rentrée chez elle en espérant célébrer son anniversaire avec sa famille, elle les a trouvés en train de planifier une fête surprise pour Vivienne à la place. Lorsque la petite Cora a innocemment demandé si Vivienne pouvait être sa maman, quelque chose en Elara a finalement craqué. Elara était une brillante chercheuse en IA avant que le mariage ne lui vole ses ambitions. Elle avait cofondé YodaVision Technologies, pour ensuite tout abandonner pour un homme qui ne l'a jamais aimée en retour. Mais maintenant Julian Croft, son ancien partenaire, veut qu'elle revienne en tant que Directrice de l'Innovation. Le monde de la technologie qui l'avait oubliée va bientôt se rappeler pourquoi elle était autrefois considérée comme une visionnaire. Partir semble impossible quand cela signifie laisser Cora derrière elle. Mais rester signifie accepter une vie où elle est invisible dans sa propre maison, humiliée sur son propre lieu de travail, et en compétition avec sa demi-sœur pour des miettes d'attention de sa propre famille. Damien pense que sa femme acceptera tranquillement tout ce qu'il lui donne, comme elle l'a toujours fait. Il est sur le point de découvrir que sept ans de silence ne signifient pas soumission—cela signifie qu'elle planifiait son retour. Et quand Elara Vance récupère son nom, sa carrière et son pouvoir, le monde de la technologie ne sera pas le seul à être ébranlé. Certaines femmes plient. D'autres se brisent. Mais les plus intelligentes ? Elles se reconstruisent plus fortes qu'avant.

Der Unerwartete Außerirdische Teilhaber (The Unexpected Alien...)

This story starts about two decades after the Mars Human/Katzen colony was built. In orbit of Mars is a new ship construction satellite, and for resources the asteroids from the nearby Asteroid Belt are mined. The colony and satellite were built by CAW (Collation of Aligned Worlds) using some human labor. The colony contains a place where young humans are taught about technology, space travel, as well as the economics and politics of the CAW. Most of the instructors are Katzens, there are a few other member species as well. There are also a few human instructors, mostly teaching Human culture to the members of CAW. University to the Stars, as it was named about a decade ago, was created so that humans could be a part of CAW, as part of the arrangement, in exchange for knowledge, humans will give their support to CAW in manpower, as well as a sharing of sought after parts of culture. It was agreed it was better to have it off world, as Terran politics and religion did not mix well with pretty much anything. Many on Earth are not happy with this arrangement, but since they won't leave Terra, there's not much they can do about it. Those that are admitted into the program for labor or schooling are carefully screened, and agree to limited contact to those they leave behind. About eighty percent make it through screening. The Katzen have agreed to help those accepted get to Mars unmolested. There are families of CAW species that live on Mars as well, mostly Katzen. Mars does not have any political connection to Terra other than what was already mentioned. CAW does not get involved with internal conflicts on Terra except for humanitarian aid. In trade for aid, they must offer candidates for the help with construction, maintenance or their young for the university. Those candidates are also screened with about only ten percent that make it to Mars. Children as young as twelve are eligible for schooling. If a human family lives on Mars, they have basic schooling starting at age four available that is shared with the rest of the species living their. As it was the Katzen that found and later convinced the Humans to join, they have the strongest relationship with Humans. Some say this is because of all the cat videos on YouTube. It just so happened that Katzen's core system was on the edge of the galactic group next to Terra's. They have a somewhat new colony world on what we call Kapteyn b. It was inhabited a few decades before Terra was found. In fact, that is when Terran radio signals were discovered that led to the investigation of that world. That will be discussed in detail in the prequel, but needs some mention here. All member species except the humans have trade worlds with colonies on worlds or moons with trade stations orbiting them. The humans have or are in the process of building small trade stations in orbit around the other trade colonies. This is where all official trade takes place between them. There are some systems with nothing but mining outpost stations as they don't have any habitable planets or moons, and those systems are not worth any species colonizing. CAW technology is about a thousand years ahead of the humans. Everyone has some kind of personal communication, entertainment and computation device. Even the most basic compared to Terran tech is like comparing the IBM neuroscientist to an Altair 8800. Most people of the CAW have them embedded into their bodies such as their arm or appendage with holographic displays, or even in the head with micro displays on their corneas or visual sensory organ and audio feed and pickups in their ear canals or audio sensory organ powered by their own bodies. Some even have it wired directly into their brains receptors powered the same way. Some go old school and carry a device with them with batteries, a screen and audio drivers, these people are thought of to be eccentric.

Female On Top (Male Competition)

One-line summary: The female lead has a beautiful appearance and seemingly warm personality, but is actually cold-hearted and extremely rational. She has stage-by-stage relationships and won’t two-time, but there will always be someone who secretly likes her. This novel has the following triggers, so if you’re sensitive to these, please don’t read: 1. The female lead has had many relationships, but she treated each one seriously and broke up properly. It’s just that the men unilaterally pestered her incessantly. For the female lead, when she doesn’t like someone anymore, she simply doesn’t like them. (This applies to her relationships with Male Lead 1, 2, 3, and 4 as well, but she’s loyal in each 1-on-1 relationship!) 2. In this novel, Male Lead 2 and the female lead kiss in a car, and Male Lead 1 sees it and beats up Male Lead 2. The female lead calls the police and sends both Male Lead 1 and 2 to the police station! Male Lead 1 begs the female lead not to break up with him. 3. Male Lead 1 has a gentle appearance but an obsessive personality. Male Lead 2 has a delicate and soft appearance, slightly green tea-like (two-faced). Male Lead 3 is a youthful college student and a smart person who has secretly liked the female lead for a long time. Male Lead 4 is the female lead’s father’s special assistant, a business elite with deep, hidden thoughts. 4. At the beginning of this novel, the female lead has already broken up with Male Lead 1 (Chapter 4) and gotten back together with Male Lead 2 (ex-boyfriend). 5. Enter with caution if you have triggers!!!
