“Don't cry, my little puppy.”
A miserable, loyal puppy who's actually good at disguising herself as a little wolf X A cold-blooded hacker older sister with an overpowering need for control
The world order has been rewritten. Power has shifted from governments to tech giants, and artificial intelligence, cybernetic augmentation, and genetic engineering are flourishing.
Technology advances, but society grows ever more brutal. The gap between rich and poor is staggering, and the strong prey on the weak.
Some struggle desperately in the real world, while others lose themselves in virtual dreams, unwilling to face reality.
Vail was born in the lowest depths of a slum. With no connections or genetic advantages, she clawed her way up, bloody and battered. At last, she thought she wouldn't end up like most people in the slums, rotting to death in a filthy ditch by the roadside. But she never imagined that beyond the walls of her prison, there would only be another prison.
And she was like a ray of light in her dark life. Just when she thought she'd finally found the only safe place in this cruel world, she forgot that everyone was nothing more than a bug beneath the corporations' feet, easily crushed.
If this so-called order is such a joke, then...
Potential dealbreakers, or just the right kind of kink: Neither female lead is a saint, and both have their flaws. Their environments have warped their personalities, leaving them with an extreme lack of security. Their personalities complement each other, and they save each other.
It's great to watch, the plot is very interesting, I'm looking forward to the next development (why the update was discontinued!!!)
Very interesting article, looking forward to the follow-up
