To Be Mine: RYC - Replicate Your Choice
Anyone you want. Any way you want them.
In Veyra, desire no longer requires consent.
RYC-Replicate Your Choice-creates biological copies of real people, engineered to look, speak, remember, and obey exactly as their buyers demand. The wealthy call it freedom. The government calls it progress. The people whose faces appear in the catalog call it something else.
Jolie and Solal Varen seem to have everything: money, influence, a flawless home, and a marriage no one would dare question.
Behind closed doors, they can barely stand each other.
Jolie is tired of Solal turning every conversation into a weapon. She wants a version of her husband who will listen, yield, and finally allow himself to be vulnerable.
Solal wants the woman Jolie used to be-or the woman he believes she should have remained. Warm. Available. Devoted. Incapable of refusing him.
Without telling each other, they both place an order with RYC.
Two secret apartments.
Two perfect bodies.
Two private versions of the same marriage.
But a Replica is not supposed to remember beyond its programming. It is not supposed to compare, question, communicate, or understand what has been done to it.
These two do.
As Jolie and Solal push their copies deeper into the protocols of Surrender and Devotion, the line between obedience and choice begins to collapse. The Replicas learn faster than expected. They recover memories they were never meant to possess. And they start watching their owners with the same cold attention their owners once reserved for them.
Soon, the question is no longer whether a copy can replace the original.
It is whether anyone will notice the difference.
Dark, sensual, claustrophobic, and morally unsettling, TO BE MINE is a dystopian psychological thriller about power, identity, marriage, and the terrifying convenience of a world where another person can be reduced to a product.
For readers who enjoy speculative thrillers, psychological suspense, morally ambiguous characters, corporate dystopias, and stories that ask how much of a human being can be bought before nothing human remains.
Because RYC does not sell love.
It sells behavior.
And when Jolie and Solal are finally forced to choose which version of each other they want to keep, the company already knows what to do with the one they discard.
