Shyla was not typical. She rewrote her grandfather's computer software for his shady organization at age 10. She built computer systems and studied medical techniques for fun. One day, that fun came to an end.
Someone kidnapped her twin sister, and she turned from a happy girl into a ruthless medical prodigy who dissected her victims for all the knowledge she could rip from their corpses.
Her mother and fraternal twin sister have no idea the lengths she will go to protect her family. Only those closest to her know what she can do, or will do to her enemies.
Her grandfather is getting older, and his age has revealed some vulnerabilities.
He needs an heir. Only someone able to take his empire from him can have it.
As she operates on herself to install cybernetic enhancements, will any humanity remain as she becomes more machine then human? Or has she become more then both combined?
I felt this story went off the rails, so I rewrote it. Under the same name, with a slightly different story, but similar characters.
