Gala never messes around when he says that about the submarine surfacing; he takes charge. Maverick repeatedly raises an eyebrow, but he doesn't argue at all. Truth be told, he's pretty curious about where their journey is headed this time. He hasn't worked together like this in years. Although the collaboration with North Metro has been smooth, it's purely business and some dirty dealings between them. No one has ever really done something with a purpose.Now? Oh my. Even he is willing to do what Gala asks. Somehow, his words really intimidate him. Physically, the kid is much smaller than him, towering over him. Is it because he's a Xavier's kid? It could be. Especially when the steering lever is taken over. Like someone familiar with advanced machines and a somewhat confusing display of ship engines, he finds no obstacles. The ship's speed becomes even more stable, and as they approach the coastline, what he does with Alex has its own purpose.Maverick has never visited West Metro t

Freya squirmed a bit. The twilight light looked beautiful from Gideon's large window. The extraordinary view was indeed a rarity here, and she felt lucky to enjoy it freely. Glancing towards the large man now peacefully asleep, she sighed softly. She slowly removed his strong hand, allowing her to get up from the sofa, perhaps preparing to leave the room.There was a somewhat disturbing pain she felt between her thighs, slowing her movements. Gideon's idea of satisfaction was always done in his way—rough, intimidating, without pauses, tenderness, or consideration. Yet, Freya couldn't do anything. She couldn't even complain. Gideon's grip on her life was too strong. On one side, she could feel how Gideon didn't want her to get hurt again.She sighed softly again, draped in a bathrobe she intentionally took from one of the large closets slightly hidden among Gideon's massive wardrobes. One cabinet looked different from the others, indicating that it wasn't Gideon's but deliberately plac

Dice has entered the dice. She shouldn't do anything until she fully recovers. Gala is quite curious about what happened to her. He has never seen Dice like that before. Her eyes also look scared, and Gala suspects one thing. There's something significant hidden by Dice, or... something very secretive.He knows everything about Dice, and it seems that when Cathleen or Dice speaks, there are no lies there. This means that for today, something must have happened beyond Dice's reach. And Gala thinks Seth Rafael knows that clearly. It shows from his uneasy face. But there is something far more important than just Seth's story this time.The two-on-one battle, where it turns out the snake is not just any snake. He can't let Alex and Maverick, who seem to be in trouble, be left alone. The large snake turns out to be more than just a snake. It is quite heavily armed on several sides, making Maverick and Alex look very frustrated. And it seems that the dice protection for both of them was sev

Gala never wanted to move from his position. The door swung wide open, and Kyler couldn't close it or the sword Gala had been holding since earlier would cut down whatever he desired. The dice glowed dimly, making Gala appear much more menacing than when illuminated by bright lights because, precisely in the corridor of the room they both entered, the light was very dim. His eyes never shifted anywhere except to every movement Kyler made, whatever he was doing to his father's body. Even to blink, Gala still had to think because he was afraid Kyler would deny what he said.As if his mother understood all the behavior Gala showed this time, she chose not to nod. She sat, guarded by Theo and Jiro, where they held their long-barreled weapons tightly. She sat in another corner, but the blue-haired woman's eyes never let go of her son. Seth, Maverick, and Alex also sat not far from where he stood. They were all on high alert because, truly, the atmosphere here was very tense.Exacerbated by

"Dice," Gala calls softly. In a separate room from where his parents rest, Gala wants to ask Dice some questions. He needs to talk to the holographic girl he hasn't been able to reach for some time. Gala had his own curiosity, but he understood that something might have happened to Dice in this place. However, he couldn't ask too much because Kyler ended their conversation with a group of servants entering from another direction. It happened while they were talking in his dimly lit office."Yeah, sir," Dice reappears. This time, her orange aura is as vibrant as her die and her master's eyes."Are you... okay?"Dice just displays her awkward smile. "Much better now.""Did you hear all our conversations?"The girl nods."Do you want to meet Xavier?""No, sir. I think he needs total rest."Gala nods slowly. "Tighten security for him. Especially for my mother.""Sure, sir.""And be prepared for the worst-case scenario, Dice." Gala says as he confidently approaches the holographic girl sta
