The three masked men stepped out of the elevator.Their polished black shoes echoed across Vincent Moreau's executive office.For the first time in decades...Vincent didn't smile.He slowly stood from his chair."So...""The Council has finally decided."The man standing in the middle nodded."You were given one final opportunity.""You failed."Vincent folded his hands behind his back."And if I refuse to step down?"The tallest of the three replied coldly,"Then we remove you."Silence filled the office.Suddenly...Vincent laughed.A deep, confident laugh."You think I built Black Horizon by depending on the Council?"He pressed a hidden button beneath his desk.Within seconds, armed bodyguards rushed into the office.The masked men didn't even flinch.---At Haven Estate, Ethan couldn't sleep.He stood on the balcony overlooking the mountains.Sophia walked outside with baby Noah in her arms."You've been thinking about the Council."Ethan nodded."They're more dangerous than Vin

The heavy doors of Blackstone Manor closed with a deafening boom.Ethan remained calm.The grand entrance hall was lit by antique chandeliers, while portraits of unfamiliar men and women lined the walls.The butler gestured politely."This way, Mr. Reed."Ethan followed without saying a word.Every hallway seemed longer than the last.The mansion felt less like a home and more like a fortress built to hide secrets.---Deep inside the manor, a pair of massive oak doors slowly opened.Beyond them was a circular chamber.Five figures sat around a large black marble table.Each wore a dark robe, their faces hidden beneath silver masks.Only the oldest member remained standing."Welcome, Ethan Reed."His voice was calm but commanding."We have waited many years to meet Richard Reed's son."Ethan didn't sit."You know my father."The oldest member nodded."We knew him well.""He was once offered a seat among us."Ethan's eyes narrowed."And he refused.""Yes.""Your father believed power s

A heavy silence filled the room at Haven Estate.Everyone stared at the silver coin lying on the table.Judge Daniel Cho broke the silence."If the Shadow Council has returned...""We're dealing with enemies far more dangerous than Vincent Moreau."Victor crossed his arms."Then we prepare for them."Ethan picked up the coin and slipped it into his pocket."They've already declared war.""I'm not waiting for them to make the next move."---The following morning, Haven Estate was heavily guarded.Former special forces officers patrolled the grounds while surveillance drones flew overhead.Inside the nursery, Ethan quietly held Noah in his arms.The baby yawned before falling asleep against his father's chest.Sophia smiled from the doorway."I think he likes being with you."Ethan smiled."I hope one day he grows up without knowing what this war feels like."Sophia gently placed her hand on his shoulder."He will.""We'll make sure of it."---Meanwhile, at Black Horizon Headquarters,

The failed kidnapping attempt sent shockwaves across Seoul.By sunrise, every major news station was reporting on the security breach at the hospital.However, no one knew the true target had been Ethan Reed's newborn son.The public believed it was simply an attempted robbery.Only Ethan and his closest allies knew the truth.---Inside Noah's hospital room, Ethan stood beside the window, watching the sun rise over the city.He hadn't slept all night.Victor entered quietly."The hospital is completely secure.""The police have stationed officers outside."Ethan shook his head."That's not enough."Victor understood immediately."You want to move Sophia and Noah."Ethan nodded."They'll be safer somewhere Vincent can't predict."---Sophia looked at Ethan."Are we leaving?"He smiled gently."Just for a while.""I have a private estate outside Seoul.""No one knows about it except Victor."Sophia reached for his hand."Wherever you go...""Noah and I will follow."---Meanwhile, Vinc

The disguised man pushed the cleaning cart calmly through the hospital corridor.His head remained lowered.The hospital uniform looked authentic.Even the identification badge appeared genuine.The security guards barely glanced at him.One guard smiled."Working late?"The man nodded politely."Emergency cleaning order."He continued walking toward the private maternity ward.---Inside Sophia's room, baby Noah slept peacefully in his bassinet.Sophia smiled weakly."He looks just like you."Ethan laughed softly."I hope he inherits your kindness instead."Victor entered quietly."Chairman.""The entire floor has been secured."Ethan nodded."Good.""No one enters without being searched."Victor smiled."I've already doubled the guards."---As the disguised cleaner approached the final checkpoint, a young nurse stopped him."Excuse me.""I don't recognize you."The man's heart skipped a beat."I'm filling in for the night shift."The nurse frowned."Which department?"Before he cou

The drive to Seoul Central Hospital felt endless.Ethan ignored every red light as Victor followed close behind with the security team.His heart pounded harder with every passing second.Nothing mattered now except Sophia and their baby.---At the hospital, doctors and nurses rushed through the maternity ward.Sophia lay on the hospital bed, gripping the sheets tightly.The contractions had become stronger.A doctor looked at her reassuringly."Mrs. Reed, your blood pressure is rising.""We may need to perform an emergency C-section."Sophia nodded weakly."My husband...""Has he arrived?""He's on his way."---The elevator doors burst open.Ethan ran down the hallway."Sophia!"A nurse stopped him."Mr. Reed?""Your wife is stable, but there are complications.""We need your consent for emergency surgery."Without hesitation, Ethan signed the documents."Save them.""I don't care what it costs.""Just save my wife and my child."The doctor nodded."We'll do everything we can."---
