Emmy's life is going just as she'd planned: She's living in her own apartment, dancing every day and is just leaps away from being named her company's next Prima ballerina. And she's only 17. But all of Emmy's plans come to a screeching halt when the FBI shows up at her door to let her know that she's being stalked by a serial killer. Suddenly, the safe, insulated world she created for herself is riddled with violence, fear...and a growing pile of dead bodies.

Ahilya Rathore was never the kind of woman the world forgave. A villainess wrapped in silk, smiling like consequences meant nothing to her. She didn't soften edges-she sharpened them. And the world learned not to reach too close. Rithvay didn't need to chase her. He already knew where ruin lived. He married her for one reason only-revenge. Not passion. Not fate. Not curiosity. Just the quiet, patient need to make her stand inside everything she once escaped untouched. He doesn't call it love. He doesn't call it anything at all. Just something that stayed too long in his mind, and turned into hatred that learned how to breathe. And her name remained at the center of it. No one calls it a beginning. No one calls it an end. Only the slow unfolding of consequences that refuse to stay buried. ─────────────────────── ~ nothing beautiful survives untouched, and nothing ruined stays innocent. ─────────────────────── © 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 𝗥𝘂𝗶𝗻, 𝗕𝗲𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝘆 𝗬𝗮𝗺𝗶 𝗦𝗮𝗸𝘂𝗿𝗮.

Willington is the most advanced city in the world. A symbol of modern society, technology, order, and functionality. A strict dictatorship divides its people into so-called "levels" based on their value. Freedom is a luxury; movement is a privilege. Yet there are people known as levelbreakers who are able to move between the city's strictly divided districts without being detected by the all-seeing AI that controls the entire city. Amber is one of them-a woman who has been an exceptional hacker since childhood. Living on the fringes of society, she struggles with loneliness in this cruel world. She tries to survive even though she has no reason to, and as one of the levelbreakers she stands against the entire city. On the opposite side of the system is Cassian-a corporate slave who spends most of his time locked in a cubicle, doing dirty work and operating on the edge of the law in order to protect a worldwide corporation that holds half the city in its grip. His career is his only hope. But when their paths cross, the foundations of the city of Willington begin to shake, and they become enemies of the dictatorial council. Both of them will have to fight their way through a web of dangerous technology and the roar of jazz to reach the freedom that may be waiting beyond the city's borders.

The city never really healed after the earthquake. But people look up to Adrian Voss anyway; he's their billionaire savior, the guy who stuck around when everyone else bailed, pouring his fortune and iron will into rebuilding. On the surface, Voss can do no wrong. Look a little closer, though, and he's ruthless, a man who deals with problems swiftly, with zero mercy. Then a murder blows everything open. Someone catches Adrian killing an associate on camera, and the footage shatters his perfect reputation. Now, the city is split: some cling to their savior, hoping it was a lie; others want him gone for good. Suddenly, Adrian, the one who pulled the strings, is running out of moves. Lila Kane never imagined she'd end up in the crosshairs. She's quiet; she blends in. But now she's on the run with the damning evidence, ducking through ruined streets and slipping into the city's secret underbelly, a strange, living labyrinth where files seem to breathe and decisions crack reality like glass. She's not the only one shaken. Adrian's son, Julian, starts to doubt every memory of his father. Investigator Gabriel Cross and reporter Elena Ward keep digging, both of them getting closer to a conspiracy that's bigger and darker than anyone guessed. And in the chaos, unexpected allies show up a skeptical rescuer, a steady leader, and even Voss's own head of security, forced to choose sides. Together, they're fighting through more than just public outrage. They're deep in a world where power warps, the old rules don't hold, and anything solid can break. Cracks in the Glass Tower is a tense psychological thriller about what it really costs to keep control, the burden of knowing the truth, and the hard question no one wants to ask: can you really rebuild something rotten at its core, or do you have to let it fall and start again?

There are people who leave no trace behind. No records, no memories, no one left to say their name. And then, there is someone who asks. Every night, under lights that never go out, she does the same thing. She looks at those passing through the edge of disappearance and quietly asks, "Would you tell me your name?" She doesn't cry. She doesn't pray. She doesn't ask who was right or wrong. She only writes. Not stories. Not confessions. Just names. Names that would have vanished without a sound. Names that no one else would remember. She writes them down carefully, one by one, as if each letter carries a weight no one else can see. She believes that remembering is enough. That even if the world forgets, someone should remain. So she stays. In a place where the night always looks the same, where factory lights never turn off, where the sea is always too far away to reach. She doesn't ask for forgiveness. She doesn't write her own name. Because she believes she doesn't deserve to be remembered. But still- she listens. To the silence between breaths, to the moment just before someone disappears, to the fragile space where a name can still be spoken. If you were about to be forgotten... would you tell her your name?
