Author's note: Hi WN readers~ Tysm for checking out this humble story of mine. Just to clear the air a little about what this story is about. So I've list couple of things below for ur quick preview ;) What it is not: - broody, angsty, enemies-to-lovers epic - a slow-burn romance dripping with drama - gritty realism - dark emotional rollercoasters What it is: - banter, ridiculous sibling antics - a romance that weaves through a lot of hijinks - lighthearted chaos, sibling meddling - a protagonist learning to step into her own spotlight If you’re into stories where family dynamics are extra (like, borderline ridiculous extra), meddling brothers take protective to a whole new level, and the heroine is caught between exasperation and love? This one’s for you. It’s a rom-com with a dash of absurdity, a sprinkle of heartwarming moments, and a big helping of 'How is she ever going to survive this?' energy. At its core, this story is for people who want to laugh, maybe cry a little, and definitely yell, 'Oh my gosh, these brothers are the worst! But I kind of love them.' So buckle up—it’s going to be a wild, fun ride! ---------------------- I’m Alexandria Emile Alcove, Xandria for short, and yes, that Alcove. The youngest daughter of the world’s richest family, I’ve been sheltered my whole life, riding to school in my custom Black and Pink Rolls Royce and sporting designer everything. Navigating life as the youngest daughter of the powerful Alcove family is like walking a tightrope—especially when my four overprotective brothers act as my personal security detail. And after a series of disastrous dates, I’m convinced I’ll never find love. Every time I think I’ve found a potential suitor, my brothers swoop in with their “Date Extermination Squad” tactics, scaring them off before I even get a chance to know them. With each thwarted romantic encounter, I realize it’s time to take charge of my own love life. Or so I thought... Character art cover: Djeezer

The adverse effect was disastrous: my bitcoin wallet suffered an attack, and I was left powerless to watch as more than $146,000 in hard-earned digital assets diminished into a vacuum. I had poured years of dedication and savings into building up that portfolio, and to see it all disappear in an instant was truly crushing.

That was, until I discovered DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY, a specialized service that promised to track down and retrieve funds from compromised wallets.

But since I had no other choice, I reached out in the hopes that they would somehow perform their magic. I was really relieved when the DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY team jumped right in and used their vast knowledge of hacker-tracking methods and blockchain forensics. The thieves attempted to hide their tracks by using a complex web of transactions, which they were able to decipher by following a complicated digital trail. It was arduous, painstaking work, but slowly and surely, the DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY agents were able to trace and recover the stolen cryptocurrency. After weeks of tireless effort, the moment of truth arrived - the funds had been located and securely returned to my wallet. I was overjoyed, my faith in technology and the power of determination restored.
