The Hidden Ace: Empire Of Ash & Gold
“Don’t complain when the lights go out…” These were the words that came out of his mouth before he calmly exited the office.
Silas Gray, a typical nobody, a medical instructor, is pushed aside by his wife, Lauren Forrest, when she sees that she has reached the very pinnacle of her career. She saw him as nothing but ‘Deadweight…’
But then everything turns upside down when, on the very day she had been dreaming of, she sees him standing with the top dogs of the city.
Silas Gray wasn't just a nobody; he was the shadow ruler of Sintril, the Hidden Ace, and the blade that held the underworld together. He had chosen a quiet life to stay with his wife; for three years, he played instructor at the clinic.
But now, he is back, and with his resurfacing, the underworld is shaking— threats are awakening, new enemies and allies are being born.
Will Silas continue to rule over his Empire of Ash and Gold?

Chapter: 9“How on earth did Silas get his hands on the Eon Diamond?” Hillary was looking at Lauren, but her daughter’s attention was fixed on Silas. Lauren stared at who used to be by her side, now casually handing a gift to another woman in front of her. “Silas, what is the meaning of this?” Lauren managed to force some words out of her mouth; she was looking at him hang the necklace on Noelle’s neck. Silas, surprised to hear his name being called like that, turned to look at Lauren. “Is anything the problem, Ms. Forrest?” He was looking at her, but instead of the soft, calm, loving gaze Lauren was used to, all she got was a distant, cold stare; it was empty and void of anything that looked like emotion. “What do you think you are doing now?!” She moved close to them, looking at Silas with what looked like the sound of pity. “I know you must think that I would take you back if you do all of this, but the only thing you are going to do is make things worse, so I would advise that—” “And

Chapter: 8Griffin Peak Hotel… In the executive suite, Silas could be seen getting ready for something. He wore a dashing blue suit; it was well fitted. He pulled out boots from a rack, a smile on his face. The doors of the suite opened, and Austin was seen standing there with a puzzled look on his face, dressed in a brown suit, two diamond earrings on, and a clearly priceless watch on his right hand.Silas turned to look at Austin; he smiled when he saw him there. “Good to see you here.” He said he was happy to see him there that early. “You are one heck of a man.” Austin walked in, moving to the seat there as he sat down. “You saved a life yesterday, then decided to take a life hours later.”Austin balanced on the seat, looking at Silas. “You managed to take Eizo off the map; what made you do it?” Silas turned to look at his friend. “Filth like him shouldn't be allowed to be in the city; he ruins it with his nature.” Austin was smiling; he threw his head back with a smile. “You should se

Chapter: 7Silas joined Noelle in her own car as they were driving to the Prince family mansion. Silas was oddly calm; it wasn't like him to just accept the date like that, but he kept a clear mind. “I wonder what made you not say a thing while I was working on your brothers.” Silas broke the awkward silence. He was looking at Noelle, trying to know what it was that made her even look at him like he was going to be able to do something about the poison when it wasn't even certain if he would be able to save them. Noelle turned to Silas, her facial expression changed, and she was smiling. “Well, one of the household matriarchs said that if you didn't know what was wrong with them, then there was bound to be no cure, and I have never seen her go wrong in my life, so I was going to make sure that I followed her words.” Silas was surprised to hear all that, a warm smile on his face as he turned out the window. “I didn't know someone had that much faith in me.” He was at ease, trying to put his

Chapter: 6Johnson couldn't move; he was looking at Silas. He knew nothing was going to save him from what was coming his way. Noelle walked closer to Johnson. Her expression was dark, and the rage in her eyes could be seen. “Mr. Johnson, I believe you can explain yourself?” Johnson was looking at them; it wasn't clear what he was expected to say, but then he turned to Silas, and his anger boiled more. Silas raised his brow, looking at the man in front of him; he wasn't in the mood to entertain rubbish. “I believe you were asked a question so I want to know why you thought it would be a good—” “It was because you took everything from me!” Johnson shot out; he was looking at Silas with pure rage. “I am a medical student, with high majors and all the required documents, but then I am overshadowed by a genius who seems to work miracles!” Silas was looking at Johnson; the correct set of words couldn't come out of his mouth at the moment. “I wanted to make sure that one patient would be remov

Chapter: 5Silas turned to the children; his eyes were closed, almost like he was praying. His hands were by his side— no one knew what he was doing, but they could see that he was up to something. The moment he opened his eyes, they had a jade glow, but it was clear that no one could notice it. He turned to the boys in front of him and began the examination. His eyes went through their body suddenly, he paused when he spotted something on their neck—‘Black veins.’Silas touched the vein, and he could feel that there was something off about the vein and the way it was on both their necks. ‘Since when did this get to Sintril?’ Silas could recognize what was making the children sick. He took a scalpel, and he made a small cut on both their arms. The brown-haired girl was uneasy watching them; she didn't know what Silas was doing or how he was going to help the twins. “Sister, I don’t know how this man is going to be able to save them. He is acting like a madman.” She was looking at the red-h

Chapter: 4Silas threw the phone to the side, placing his head back on the chair. He didn’t say a word; it wasn’t what anyone would want to imagine. “Should I sink them?” Austin muttered; he was looking at his phone. “You know, it’s one word, and I will make sure that the Forrest family will understand what role you played in their lives.” Austin was looking at Silas; his face held nothing like a grudge. “No, leave them.” Silas didn't want anything that would make him even think of Lauren and her family. “I will let fate handle her, and you know there is no way for her to walk away from it for long.” He had a calm face; it was like he had erased her from his mind. Austin smiled; he turned to his phone. His brows raised when he looked at what was in front of him. “Well, if you were not going to do anything, then just know she is about to be hit hard by the Holt family; news spreads fast— even when the Prince of Ash is no longer protecting them.” Silas rolled his eyes; he looked out the wi

Chapter: Chapter 6Liam was looking at them, he said nothing but just stood there and glared at the men knowing that they were not going to find it easy to let the girl go. “You know, some people would see a sight like this and act like they didn't see anything, but I see that you don’t even care what is going to happen. Do you?” One of the goons looked at Liam, he was a bit surprised that there was even a chance that someone was looking at them like he could do anything to them. “I don’t like bullies, that’s one thing I don’t like and you seem to be holding a poor lady who seems to be fighting to avoid you so why don’t you let her go and I will make sure that I look the other way.” Liam smiled, he was hoping that he wouldn’t have to hurt anyone and they didn’t look like the type of people who would want to stand down. The goons looked at each other and laughed hysterically, Liam to them was putting up a show and they were watching him with a bit of confusion in their minds. “You have ten seconds to

Chapter: Chapter 5Liam was sitting in the car looking out the window as a thought crossed his mind. He looked at the broken bracelet in his hand, He didn't know what he was going to do but he was going to make it come back to normal. “I made a little mistake not letting you finish that imp off for ruining this.” Liam looked at the bracelet, he was a bit angry and there was no way he would even want to think that he had lost the only thing he could use to remember his mother. “Well you don't want our first wrap to be murder now do you?” Barry teased as he drove Liam, “I can't tell you how thrilled the partners were when I told them that you will be meeting them today. We are going to be seeing them at the venue I have prepared.” Barry was looking at Liam through the rearview mirror, he could see that something was bothering him. “Well, they will be shocked that I decided to come back after such a long time. This will be more like a shock to them than anything they have seen for a long time.” Liam sat

He was not going to let him go that easily, he was not going to let this slide. Jeremy looked up as he saw Liam walking up to him, there was no telling what was on his mind but it was clear that he was not going to let him walk away with what he had done. “You think that I will let you hurt me? I will make sure that nothing is going to let you walk away from this place without paying for this insult.” Jeremy threatened he was not going to let Liam walk away.Liam looked at the beads on the floor, he was not going to forgive Jeremy that easily. “You ruined the only thing that reminded me of my family, you think that there is going to be any chance you will be walking out of this with all your limbs.” Liam began walking up to Jeremy, he looked like he was going to be killing him there and then. “You know that there is no way you will t

Like you would tell someone to break the news of divorce to me like this.” Liam was looking at Monica, his wife was oddly quiet. “Mon, is anything wrong?” Monica Potter had become Keston city's third-biggest businesswoman, she was different and there was nothing she couldn't do. But she had one problem, her husband was a nobody. Liam Grayson was someone that the entire city didn't even know where he came from. They all knew that he was the one who made sure that he brought Monica her lunch and other things she needed. He was nothing other than Monica's foot servant. Monica looked at Liam, but she didn't say anything. After taking a deep breath she looked at Liam, with a cold look on her face. “Why would you think that it's a j
