Chapter: 377It was tall, impossibly black, eyes glowing crimson. Its presence radiated a thick, oppressive aura. Claws glinted in the scattered light, sharp as razors, and black smoke curled from its form like ink spilled in water. Its voice was a low, rumbling hiss that seemed to echo from inside her skull.“So… you hide behind your pets and walls, little Hadel girl?” it taunted, each word dripping malice.Jenna stumbled back, tripping over the broken tiles. Her scream hitched, sharp and primal, and then—her legs gave out entirely. Her world went white. She fainted, collapsing in a heap.Ethan didn’t hesitate. His feet barely touched the floor as he lunged forward, hands moving in a precise sequence, ancient sigils of holy energy shimmering briefly around his fingertips.A blinding light erupted from him, washing over the shadow in waves of pure radiance. The demon hissed, recoiling, its glowing eyes narrowing.“Foolish creature,” it spat, voice jagged and cruel, “you think light can touch m

Chapter: 376“So I was right,” she said, her voice thick with heat and disbelief. “You weren’t protecting me. You were… watching.” “No,” Ethan said immediately, but the steel in his voice had softened, cracked under her fury. His jaw clenched, and he ran a hand through his hair, wet strands sticking to his forehead, his own skin prickling with embarrassment. “That’s not—” “You came into my bathroom,” she spat, tears stinging at the corners of her eyes, “in the middle of the night, and you think I’m stupid enough to believe this is about some presence?” “I told you—” He took a half step back, trying to ground himself, to meet her gaze, but she was a storm, shaking with fury. His chest tightened, throat dry. “I swear, Jenna… I didn’t—” “You’re lying,” she screamed, hysteria bleeding into her words. “You said it yourself—you don’t need permission. You decide what you want, and you take it.” “That’s not what I meant,” he said, voice barely audible over her roaring anger, his hands curled into fis

Chapter: 375He didn’t hesitate. Every muscle coiled. The aura wasn’t subtle. It was deliberate, precise—a dark energy sliding through the house like liquid shadow, seeking a target. His mind calculated speed, trajectories, likely entry points.It’s heading toward a room. The master wing. The east corridor. Someone’s in danger.Without thinking, he sprinted. His movement was a blur: the polished floors barely touched, the shadows clinging to him as he passed. Security systems pinged in the background, but he ignored them; they were too slow.The darkness seemed to thicken around him, pressing in. His heart beat steadily, controlled, though adrenaline hammered through his veins. Every step was precise, silent, a calculated strike against a threat he could sense but not yet see.“This isn’t an ordinary intruder. I can feel it.” He thought. He rounded the last corner, eyes narrowing as he tracked the aura to a bathroom. The door was slightly ajar, a faint light spilling out. The energy stopped t

Chapter: 374Everyone froze. Jenna stared at him in disbelief. “What did you just—” “I said shut the fuck up,” John repeated, his voice calm but lethal. “You’ve said enough. More than enough.” Her mouth opened, then closed. John rose slowly to his feet, resting both hands on the table. “Ethan Storm is staying here. Whether you like it or not. Whether it bruises your pride or offends your imagination or not.” “That’s not fair,” she snapped. “This is my home too!” “And you are not the head of this family,” John shot back. “Nor the one with enemies circling.” She shook with rage. “So my opinion just doesn’t matter?” “It mattered,” John said coldly. “Until you turned it into slander.” Silence swallowed the room. Ethan stood perfectly still, eyes forward, refusing to escalate further. Internally, he was done. Absolutely done. Jenna’s chest heaved. Her eyes flicked to Ethan one last time—angry, wounded, humiliated. “Fine,” she said through clenched teeth. “Do whatever you want.” She turned

Chapter: 373John’s eyes flashed. “Jenna.” “No,” she said stubbornly. “Someone has to say it.” Ethan stared at her for a long second longer, then laughed once—short, disbelieving. “Unbelievable,” he muttered. He straightened, shoulders squaring, his voice flattening into something colder. “Do you hear yourself?” “You’re deflecting,” she snapped. “That’s what men do when they’re caught.” That did it. Ethan’s gaze hardened, not with fury but with something sharper—disappointment edged with disbelief. “Yesterday,” he said slowly, “you apologized to me. You told me—twice—that you regretted misjudging me. That you were ashamed of insulting me without proof.” Jenna’s chest tightened, but she didn’t respond. “And today,” he continued, “you’re standing here accusing me of something degrading, baseless, and frankly insulting—again.” Chris looked between them, unsettled. “Jenna, that’s enough.” She ignored him. “If it bothers you so much, maybe you should leave.” Ethan stared at her as if seein

Chapter: 372“Peek?” he repeated calmly, voice low. “That’s what you think this is about?”Jenna met his gaze head-on. Her heart was pounding now, but she refused to look away. “I think you’re asking for access,” she said. “And I don’t like not knowing the price.”For a moment, no one spoke. Ethan stood there, tall and still, his mouth parting just slightly—then closing again. Whatever reply he’d been prepared to give seemed to stall somewhere behind his eyes. Speechless. The silence stretched, thick and uncomfortable. Chris noticed it first. His gaze flicked to Ethan, then back to Jenna. “Young master Ethan?” he prompted carefully. Ethan inhaled once. Slow. Deep. When he spoke again, his voice was quieter than before. Stripped of strategy. Stripped of polish. “That’s… not a word I expected to hear,” he said. Jenna’s throat tightened, but she didn’t back down. “Then maybe you didn’t think hard enough about how this looks from my side.”John leaned back in his chair, fingers steepled, watch

Explosions still echoed in the distance, muffled by steel and flame.“All units, push in! We’ve got visual confirmation—Allvar’s in the southeast quadrant!” shouted Mara over the comms, her voice sharp with urgency.Gunfire cracked through the chaos as rebels stormed the warehouse in waves, rifles raised, eyes burning with purpose.1. Rebel AssaultThe rebels moved like a storm—trained, silent, lethal. Smoke grenades rolled across the concrete, filling the space with choking clouds. Tobias’s men scattered, their confidence unraveling under the coordinated assault.In a back room, Allvar still sat slumped in the metal chair, head bowed, barely conscious. The explosion had shaken the entire building, but he hadn’t flinched. His wrists bled from the ropes, his breath shallow.The door burst open.“Allvar!”Mara rushed in, followed by Jerek and two others.

Chapter: 299Chapter 299 – “Breaking Point”The air in the deeper section of the warehouse was colder, damp with the scent of mildew and rust. The concrete walls were cracked in places, the flickering overhead light casting eerie shadows that danced along the grime-slick floor. Allvar was dragged into the new room, his boots scraping against the floor, his breath ragged from the effort to stay upright.Tobias followed behind slowly, taking off his gloves finger by finger, his eyes never leaving Allvar.“Put him in the chair. Strap him down properly this time. I don’t want him squirming.” His voice was smooth—too smooth. It sent a shiver crawling down the tall man’s spine.The tall man hesitated a fraction of a second before nodding. “Yes, boss.”Allvar was thrown into the metal chair, his arms shackled behind him this time, legs strapped to the legs of the chair with thick leather. A single bulb overhead buzzed ominously. Shadows danced across Tobias’s face as he stepped into the circle of light.

Chapter: 298298Allvar didn’t answer right away. His mind was working, trying to come up with a way out, a plan, anything. But the truth was, he wasn’t sure he could escape. The pain from the slap still throbbed in his jaw, and the ropes around his wrists were too tight to slip free from. His muscles burned, his body heavy with fatigue from the earlier struggles.Tobias waited, watching him carefully. “Nothing to say? Interesting.”Allvar glared at him, his chest rising and falling with ragged breaths. His thoughts raced, trying to formulate a plan. But Tobias’s mocking gaze made it hard to focus. He clenched his jaw, his teeth grinding together.“You’re not going to win,” Allvar said quietly, though he wasn’t entirely sure he believed it himself. “This will end. It always does.”Tobias chuckled darkly, his voice low and dripping with amusement. “We’ll see about that, won’t we?”Allvar couldn’t help but snap. The frustration, the anger, it all welled up inside of him. “Why don’t you just get it o

Chapter: 297297The stocky man shrugged. “Told you. He’s—”Without warning, Tobias slapped Allvar across the face, the sharp crack echoing through the warehouse. Allvar’s head snapped to the side, and a groan escaped his lips. Slowly, his eyes fluttered open, glassy and unfocused.“There he is,” Tobias said, his voice dripping with mock sweetness. He crouched down again, grabbing Allvar by the chin and forcing him to look up. “Welcome back, Allvar. Did you have a nice nap?”Allvar winced, his jaw throbbing from the slap. He tried to pull away, but Tobias’s grip tightened. “Go to hell,” he rasped, his voice hoarse.Tobias chuckled darkly. “Oh, you’ve got some fight left in you. Good. I’d hate for this to be too easy.”The tall man and the stocky one snickered behind him, but Tobias silenced them with a sharp look. “You two—stand back. I’ll handle this.”They nodded quickly, retreating a few steps but staying close enough to watch.Tobias turned his attention back to Allvar, his expression turning

Chapter: 296296The group moved quickly through the damp alley, their prisoner slumped between the tall man and the stocky one. Allvar’s body hung limply, his head drooping as though unconscious. His feet dragged against the ground, leaving faint streaks of blood in their wake. The men didn’t seem to care, their focus solely on bringing him to Tobias."Pick up the pace," the tall man growled, his voice sharp with irritation. His eyes darted ahead, scanning the darkened alley for any signs of danger. "Boss doesn’t like waiting."The stocky man grunted in annoyance. "What’s the rush? He’s not going anywhere. Look at him—barely breathing.""Yeah? And whose fault will it be if he dies before Tobias gets a word out of him?" the tall man snapped, shooting his partner a glare that could cut through steel. His grip tightened on Allvar’s arm as if to emphasize the point.The stocky man let out an exasperated sigh but said nothing. "Not my problem," he muttered under his breath, though his eyes flicked to

Chapter: 295295“Careful,” the tall man said mockingly, his voice dripping with sarcasm. “Don’t want him bleeding out before Tobias sees him.”Weston chuckled, shaking Allvar’s limp arm. “Bleeding out?” he scoffed. “Look at him. He’s practically swimming in his own blood already. Tobias’ll think we hit a slaughterhouse on the way.”Allvar could barely make out their words through the haze of pain, his vision blurring in and out. His muscles trembled, but he held on, fighting against the darkness threatening to swallow him whole. He clenched his teeth and managed to grunt, though his words came out in a painful rasp. “You… won’t win,” he hissed, barely audible, but enough to taunt them.The tall man stopped in his tracks, turning to lean down toward Allvar. He moved slowly, his breath hot and foul against Allvar’s ear as he whispered. “Win?” The man’s voice was thick with amusement. “Oh, Allvar, we already have. You’re just too stubborn to admit it.”Weston snorted behind him, clearly enjoying the

Chapter: 416A nervous-looking executive whispered to the man next to him, “Does… does he have a gun?” “Maybe. Doesn’t matter,” the other replied. “It’s the look in his eyes… that’s worse than any weapon.” Dylan’s hand lifted slightly, tilting Rico forward. “Rico… every scream, every plea, every attempt to delay… it’s a mark against you. You had a choice.” “I—” Rico coughed, blood spilling from his mouth. “I made… mistakes!” “Every one of them has consequences,” Dylan said. “You see what I am, and you still think you can ignore me? That’s a gamble you’ve already lost.” Clara’s father whispered again. “Dylan… do you have to show them all this?” Dylan’s eyes flicked to him, sharp. “Sometimes, to stop the monsters, you have to show you’re no less than they are.” Marcus muttered, almost under his breath, “Monsters… he’s become one too.” Clara’s eyes widened. “No… he’s not a monster… he’s… he’s…” Dylan’s gaze swept across the room one more time, catching every stunned face. “Heed this,” he sai

If they want to make us reckless, we’ll teach them what happens when they try.” Dylan’s eyes flicked to the exit of the mall where sunlight pooled. He checked the sky through the cracked skylight as if measuring time itself. “We move. Now. Tell us everything you know. Every detail.” Anna nodded, voice still small. “Cross… he’s alive. Your father—Clara’s father—he’s in the city. They didn’t move him here. The corporation… they’re trying to draw you out. To make you reckless.” Clara froze. “He’s… he’s alive?” “Yes,” Anna said, voice trembling. “They want you to chase shadows, make mistakes, so they can capture you… or worse. I… I can’t go back. I’ll help you. I swear.” Dylan looked at her, cold eyes softening just slightly. “Good. We use that. But we trust actions, not words.” Anna nodded, swallowing. “I understand. I’ll help.

Her eyes fixed on Dylan, guilt and fear tangled together.An attacker moved in, trying to flank the group. He slashed at Marcus, who blocked and took a blow to the arm. Marcus growled and answered with a swing that sent the man reeling into a mannequin display. The attackers were disciplined—military precision in their movements—but Dylan had the environment: exposed wiring, broken escalator treads, narrow sightlines. He used them.“Which one of you sent her?” Dylan demanded as he parried a knife and answered with a short, brutal jab to the ribs that doubled the attacker over.The leader barked an order in a clipped tone. “Take the girl.

He scanned the shadows, every corner, every stairwell. Finally, he nodded. “We meet her. But stay sharp. Something feels… off.”Clara glanced at him. “Anna? The waitress?”“Yes,” Dylan said. “She said she has information about Cross.”Marcus muttered under his breath, “Information usually comes with trouble.”They reached the center of the mall. A faint movement caught Dylan’s eyes. A woman stepped out from behind a fallen pillar—Anna. She looked smaller than he remembered, shoulders slumped, eyes full of worry.“Dylan,” she whispered, her voice shaking. “You came…”Clara stepped forward. “Anna… what is it?”Anna glanced nervously over her shoulde

The door hissed, groaning, then swung open.They stepped inside, and the black site revealed itself: cold, sterile, and buzzing with fluorescent lights. Computers hummed. Strange machines blinked with green and red lights, cables snaking like vines along the walls.

Too many eyes.”Marcus frowned. “Too many eyes everywhere. How do we know we’re even safe?”Dylan didn’t answer. He only scanned the platform, eyes sharp, body tense.They reached the train station again, but this time it felt wrong. Every face seemed to follow them. A man in a gray hat kept his distance, but Dylan noticed him.“They’re watching,” Dylan muttered. “Stay calm.”Clara grabbed his arm. “Why do they want us so badly?”Dylan’s jaw tightened. “Because we know too much. Because some people can’t lose.”Marcus looked around nervously. “We should just get on the train.”They moved forward, but the man in the hat suddenly stepped closer. His movements smooth, de
