Touchcode Stories

In a world where emotion is regulated and intimacy is criminal, one wrong touch could cost her everything. At Fairbridge Academy, every student wears their status on their wrist-green for compliant, yellow for unstable, red for dangerous. Eden Vale is a Yellow, one glitch away from losing her scholarship, her future, and her carefully constructed control. She knows the rules: stay calm, stay distant, stay unseen. When rumors threaten to tip her status into the Red, Eden makes an impossible choice-ask Cassian Rowe, her rival turned top-ranked Green, to fake a relationship. It's a calculated move. Safe. Strategic. Until it isn't. Because Cassian isn't as Green as he seems. And every touch between them-every glance, every lingering pause-draws them closer to the system's edge. As they navigate a web of surveillance, secrets, and the buried code her mother left behind, Eden must decide: how much is she willing to risk for something as dangerous as feeling? Some codes weren't meant to be followed. Some were meant to be broken.
