THE LOVER WHO NEVER LIVEDA Cyber-Mafia Enemies-to-Lovers TragedyThe city of Lucentis never slept, but Leon Draven Hale had grown used to living inside its noise. Power hummed through every inch of the place,through the skyscrapers he owned, the syndicates he controlled, and the terrified whispers that followed his name like a shadow.He had everything a man could take for himself: wealth, control, fear, obedience. But he felt none of it. His life was precise, calculated, and cold. Every decision was a threat neutralized, a rival silenced, a profit secured.Emotions were weaknesses he’d learned to kill long ago.Until her…Until the ghost who slipped into his perfect world and ruined it with the one thing he never believed he could feel…connection.She wasn’t supposed to exist.She wasn’t even human.Just a code, a mind born out of revenge, hidden behind screens and firewalls.But she laughed.She questioned him.She challenged him in ways no woman ever dared.And she made him feel seen,truly seen, for the first time in his life.Leon didn’t know her name, her face, or her purpose. All he had were fragments: a voice soft enough to disarm him, a mind sharp enough to threaten him, and a presence that tugged at places in him he swore were dead.He should have destroyed her the moment she breached his systems.Instead, he kept coming back.Because she felt real.Too real.And in the dark, in those stolen moments of conversation and tension and unspoken longing, Leon Draven Hale, the man who feared nothing, realized he was terrified of losing someone who didn’t even live.He didn’t know she was his enemy, didn’t know she was hunting him, that she was the weapon built to break him.All he knew was this;For the first time in his life, he wanted something he could never truly have.A lover made of light, lies, and vengeance.A woman who never lived… yet somehow became the only thing that made him feel alive.
