You stole from me five years ago," he whispered, trapping her against his desk. "Did you really think I wouldn't find you?"Maya trembled, but not because of the accusation. She was terrified he would find out the other thing she stole: his twin heirs.

The Glass Legacy
Updated at May 27, 2026, 07:25
She hacked his impenetrable empire to destroy him. Instead, she became his deadliest obsession.Twenty-five-year-old Leo Thorne rules the digital underworld. As the billionaire heir to Thorne Tech, he is known as the "Ice Prince"—colder, more calculating, and even more ruthless than his legendary father. His networks are flawless. His heart is completely off-limits. Until a phantom hacker breaches his personal, air-gapped mainframe, stealing highly classified family secrets. Aria Vance was raised in the shadows with one purpose: revenge. As the orphaned niece of a fallen Vanguard assassin, she was taught that the Thorne family were monsters who destroyed her bloodline. Hacking Leo’s private server was supposed to be the first step in dismantling his legacy. But she severely miscalculated how fast the Ice Prince would hunt her down. Cornered in a neon-drenched cyber-den in Tokyo, Aria expects a swift and brutal execution. Instead, Leo makes a terrifying, deeply possessive decision: he takes her captive. Locked inside his high-security penthouse in New York, Aria becomes a pawn in a much larger, deadlier corporate war. Forced into close proximity, the bitter hatred between the rogue hacker and the ruthless CEO explodes into a scorching, undeniable physical attraction. Leo has never let anyone past his walls, but Aria's brilliant defiance completely dismantles his control. When a new, rising syndicate threatens to wipe them both out, Leo and Aria are forced to work together. But the real danger isn't the digital war raging outside. It's the terrifying realization that the Ice Prince is no longer fighting to protect his empire—he is fighting to protect her. And he will burn the world to the ground to keep her safe. Tropes: Enemies to Lovers, Billionaire CEO, Hacker/Tech Romance, Captive/Forced Proximity, "Who Did This To You?", Possessive Alpha, Hidden Identity.
