Sylvester grabbed the fallen Atkens, his fingers bunched into a fist, ready to punch him in the face. “Wait… wait, hold on. I think I remember something else.” Atkens cried out, holding up his hands over his face to ward off the blow. Sylvester paused mere inches from his face. “What do you remember? It had better be worth it or else…” He didn't finish his sentence, shaking his fist instead to pass on the implied message. “I got instructions from an older man though it wasnt a direct contact. He approached me through someone. Said he had a proposal for me.” Atkens hurriedly said. Sylvester frowned. An older man. Could be anyone but he was willing to bet it was Viktor. He had to confirm first. “When did he first reach out to you? This older man who had a proposal for you?” he quizzed Atkens, staring coldly at him. Atkens breathed out in relief, glad to have calmed Sylvester a bit. “Some weeks after your victory over the Head Elder of the blockers clan. I was just arriving ho

Lady Lianna’s mansion looked out of place in the Underground city, having the appearance and feel of something that originally should be on the surface. She stood at the front door as the vehicle driven by her messenger cruised to a stop. Immediately, more men in black leather reached out and held the door open for Emily and Sylvester, bowing as they did so. She also gave a stiff bow herself. “I know it's a bit late and might not be what you want to hear, considering but still, welcome to the Aslan clan.” She said softly and Sylvester was surprised. Her voice was harmonious and graceful like a flowing spring. Not at all what he imagined it to be. Emily saw the look on his face and was irritated. She flat out ignored the greeting, driving her elbow none too gently into Sylvester's ribs. He choked on his own saliva at the unexpected attack to his ribcage, casting Emily a confused look as he struggled for breath. “What the actual fuck, babe?” he whispered at her. She responded
Chapter 183
Emily and Sylvester blinked in unison, their brain still struggling to wrap this bit of news around itself. Lianna… Viktor… siblings. Sylvester had asked for one thing and had received a bomb in the process. Never once had he ever imagined Viktor had an older sister. Wait. Hold up. If what she said was to be believed, then that meant she was older. So how was it possible that Viktor looked much older and Lianna looked to be about Emily’s age? Lianna saw the doubt clouding Sylvester and smiled, not particularly surprised. She slid another cookie off the plate and nibbled on it, watching the couple closely. “I know what you are both thinking? Should I try to guess it out?” she requested and though neither gave a reply, she did as she wanted anyway. “I know you are wondering how I look so young compared to Viktor's wrinkled skin right?” she guessed just as she said would. “Correct on the first try.” Sylvester told her. “Just how is that possible exactly?” Lianna took a

sylvester sent word to Otto and Gerald informing them he knew Viktor’s hideout. “So what now?” Emily asked Sylvester as soon as they got back home. Sylvester didn't respond immediately, rolling his thoughts around in his head, formulating a plan. He turned away from the window in his study and faced her. “I hunt him down.” The way he said it made cold sweat break out on her skin. She knew what he meant by hunt him down. All this while, Viktor had been the one doing the hunting, controlling the pieces but it was time for Sylvester to do the hunting. She walked up to her husband and gently placed a comforting hand on his cheek. “Please don't throw aside your humanity.” Sylvester closed his eyes and leaned into her touch, reveling in the sensation. His tone was soft when he spoke, almost like a whisper. “What are you talking about?” Emily wasn't sure if she answer honestly or not. She chose to answer honestly. “You are changing.” she said simply. Sylvester's eyes opened a

“What?” Sylvester asked incredulously. “He got to some members of the clan also. Some of them have left the clan as we speak while there are still those who are still pretending to be loyal.” Verity said. Sylvester looked sharply at Gerald, his expression hard “Is that true?” he demanded coldly. . Gerald got down on one knee, bowing his head in submission. “Yes, master.” he responded without hesitation. Sylvester's eyes glowed angrily and his aura seeped out, enveloping the entire room. “Why am I just hearing of this? How come it wasn't in the last report?” “I only just found out about it not quite long. Myself and Otto have been trying to trace the defaulters.” Gerald explained. Sylvester's aura blazed out of his body in full force now. Emily stood up and hugged her husband from behind, resting her head against his broad back. His body was hot and getting hotter still but Emily refused to let go, enduring the heat even though it was hurting her. “Calm down, bab

Confused whispers filled the training grounds as the ignorant ones tried to make sense of what he, their leader was trying to say while the guilty ones were shocked, surprised Sylvester already knew what was going on. Sylvester's sharp eyes picked out the guilty ones, taking not of their facial expression. He was shocked by the number though no one stepped forward. He smirked. I never expected it to be that easy, he thought to himself. He switched tactics. “It seems you don't want to so how about I up the stakes?” his gaze swept the training ground, covering every angle. “So here's the deal… should you step out voluntarily, I won't harm even a hair on your head but…” He let his voice trail off, so they would hang on his every word. “...But if I identify you myself and trust me, I will then get prepared to face my full wrath. I gave you your chance so I advice you to choose wisely.” The statement was made off handedly but no one doubted the genuity of his claim. One by

“You are letting them just go like that?” Emily asked in disbelief, blinking at Sylvester. He shrugged, turning around to look back at their retreating figures. “I can't hold them down against their wish. I only pray their choice doesn't come back to bite them.” Emily looked at them also. “What do we do now? We have lost most of our fighting force.” Sylvester shrugged again, walking back towards the main building that served as a residential area in the compound. “We will survive.” He paused and looked at Gerald. “Any word from Jasper yet?” Gerald shook his head. “No boss.” Sylvester was worried but he tried not to show it for the sake of those with him. He looked at Emily. “I will be in the study. I need to try understanding what that machine looks like or how it works if I'm to be able to stop it. I already know what it does.” Sylvester broke away from the small group and made away towards the side of the building. Emily paused and looked at his back. He looks lik

Over the next few days, Verity led Sylvester and Emily as well as Gerald and Otto to the various ‘safe houses’ she identified for them scattered all over the valley on the surface. “I know these places.” Sylvester commented after they visited quite a few of these so called safe houses and got turned down by those they approached. “As do I.” Gerald said as well. “These use to be parts of a clan settlement back then before the great war but they were overwhelmed and absorbed by other clans.” Sylvester nodded his head in agreement. He remembered that time all too well. Everyone had a fight they were fighting for, a ‘cause’ as they called it, each side believing they were on the right part and justifying their actions. “We need to get our people back.” he said after a while. “I wouldnt know how to face their fathers and grandfathers in the afterlife otherwise.” Emily held his cheeks with both hands. “Don't worry we will get them.” Emily voice sounded optimistic but Sylvester was

Back at the compound, construction of the stronghold took place in earnest and Sylvester spent most of his time there with Emily. Now that the war wasn't looming over them due to its postponement, Sylvester looked more alive and energetic. He oversaw the project himself, directing and correcting where necessary. Emily on her part played a big role also in the construction of the building, making sure they had the best material of every material needed. It was just a matter of placing the construction company under her control in charge of the work. And Sylvester was appreciative. Finally after two months of back breaking hard labour, the stronghold was completed as well as an additional fencing around the compound. Sylvester stood off to one side and inspected their handwork, nodding in approval. It was perfect. The stronghold itself was like an impenetrable fortress, it's walls made with fortified steel and twelve inches thick cement slabs. There was no way bullets coul

Emily walked into Sylvester’s dressing room and saw him attaching a fake beard to his chin and wearing a wig. She looked on transfixed. This was the first time she was seeing him on disguise. “Where are you off to?” she asked him curiously. The sound of her voice drew his attention and he twisted his upper body around to glance at her before turning back to the mirror to resume his task. “I have to step out for a bit. I might be gone for a while depending.” He informed her though he didn’t offer any details about where he was going to or why he needed a disguise. Emily’s ran of patience. “You are going to somewhere dangerous, aren’t you?” Sylvester was mute. Emily wasn’t giving up. “Syl, talk to me.” Sylvester caught her looking at him through the mirror and saw the concern and worry in her eyes. With his back still to her, he responded. “Jasper gave me the name and location of a merchant who might be able to give me some crucial information about the weapon Viktor has in his
