The beach was crowded as it was summer and many families tend to camp and have fun during this period. A young tanned skin girl of about 8 years old sat down on the sand a little bit far from her family, wearing a dark blue hoodie and having a headphone over her head. Her beautiful grey eyes seems to shimmer as she stared with keen interest at the water, while humming a song and enjoying the quiet.

Her little peace and privacy was however short-live as a lad of about 10years old endowed with curly jet black hair, ran along. He stopped however on seeing her.

   She turned to see the one invading her quiet only to see the boy staring at her. She looked at him without saying a word holding his gaze.

Time seems to fly by as they both continued their staring match which was eventually interrupted when another lad of same age as the boy came by.

   "Jordan! There you are. Come, Mom calls for you" The blonde haired lad said as he looked at the girl briefly before dragging the other along who continued to stare at the girl from his shoulders until she was out of eyesight.

"Hey Elle!" A little girl of same age as the grey eyed called as she ran towards her. "Come see the sand castle Rosalie and I built"
"Jordan" the grey eyed girl whispered.

The Empire Within
Story Description

Elena Cruz has it all—a billion-dollar tech empire, a corner office in Manhattan, and a reputation as one of the most brilliant CEOs of her generation. She built CruzTech from the ground up, transforming her father's modest import business into a global powerhouse. But success comes with a price she never imagined paying.
When her father, Antonio Cruz, is found murdered in his penthouse, Elena's perfect world shatters. The police investigation reveals a nightmare: her family's empire is built on blood money. For decades, the Cruz name has been a front for a powerful European cartel trafficking drugs and humans across continents. Every contract she signed, every expansion she celebrated, was funded by crime.
As Elena digs deeper, she discovers her charming brother Julian is neck-deep in the operation, and her mother's death years ago was no accident. An anonymous message leads her to a hidden vault in Switzerland containing evidence that could destroy everyone she loves—or save her life.
But Elena isn't the only one searching for answers. Detective Ryan Hale suspects she's covering up her father's murder, while Vera Ivanova, the ruthless head of the cartel, wants Elena dead to protect her empire. Hunted by assassins and the FBI, Elena must run.
What follows is a deadly game of deception across three continents. Betrayal comes from those closest to her. Trust becomes a weapon. And as Elena gets closer to the truth, she realizes the most dangerous person in this game might be herself.
In a world where power is everything and family is a lie, how far would you go to survive? Elena Cruz is about to find out—and the answer will destroy everything she's built.

I'm Vivian Miller, USC Film School graduate and Hollywood production assistant. For three years, I used my connections and resources to build my husband Rick into one of the hottest independent producers in town.

On our anniversary night, I prepared a three-layer cake and candlelit dinner, waiting for him to come home from the Oscar after-party. Instead, I got red lipstick stains on his shirt and the lingering scent of unfamiliar perfume.

When I discovered that woman was Oscar-nominated actress Amy Williams, everything clicked. She was his college sweetheart, his white moonlight. And me? Just her substitute.

The cruelest truth was yet to come—our wedding anniversary was Amy's birthday.

After our divorce, I thought leaving quietly would give me a fresh start. I was wrong. Amy wanted to destroy me completely. Online harassment, job offers rescinded, fans attacking me on the street... she wanted me erased.

But what she didn't know was that every project idea in Rick's company came from me. Those copyrights belonged to me all along.

Golden Globe red carpet, under the spotlight, when I stood before Rick and Amy, all of Hollywood had no idea what was about to unfold.
