251: Archelords?
The Prime Minister shifted his gaze away from Michelle, his voice remained steady: “Load them into the transport vehicles. All of them.”Special agents moved efficiently, separating the prisoners into groups. Lucia continued to sob, calling out for Mr. Montoya, but he never looked back. Michelle walked with her head high, as if she were attending a state dinner rather than heading to prison.Achilles handed Gabrielle to Star: “Take her inside. She doesn't need to see more of this.”“Daddy, no—” Gabrielle reached for him with sparkling eyes.“It's okay, Pumpkin.” He kissed her forehead. “Daddy will be right back. I promise.”Star nodded and carried the little girl toward the apartment entrance. Sharon Grace followed her daughter, throwing one last glance at the arrest scene. For a moment she thought the special agents would cuff her wrists and shove her alongside others.The Prime Minister stood watching his wife being placed in a

252: Ethan's Plan B?
“He's my uncle. My responsibility.” Achilles' voice was firm: “But I trust you to make sure he arrives alive. We need him to talk. To tell us about these Archelords.”Margaret nodded with a steady beam: “Understood.”The PM was still staring at Michelle's vehicle: “I need to speak with her. Before they take her away.”“PM, I don't think—” Mr. Montoya tried to talk him off.“I need to. We need more information.” The PM's voice was quiet but resolute.Achilles nodded and winked at Mr. Montoya: “Okay, five minutes. But we'll be right outside.”The PM walked to Michelle's transport. An agent opened the door. Michelle sat calmly inside, hands still cuffed.“Come to say goodbye, honey?” Her voice dripped with mock sweetness.“I came to ask you one question.” The PM climbed into the vehicle, sitting across from her: “Why?”Michelle tilted her head: “Why betray you? Why work for the Cartel? Why marry you in the

253: The Desperate Text
The guard standing watch over Victoria Stones noticed her fidgeting. She'd been quiet since her arrest, unlike the others who'd either protested their innocence or laid incessant curses.“I need to make a phone call,” Victoria said with a hitch of breath.“No calls until you're processed at the facility,” the guard replied with a serious demeanor.“P…Please.” Victoria's voice cracked. “Just one text. To my... to someone who can help me. I have information. Important information about the Cartel.”At first, the guard was hesitant, but the information should be valuable. If she were willing to talk, it wouldn't be a bad idea to see how it'd unfold.“One text. That's it. And I read it first.”Victoria nodded without second thoughts: “Thank you. Thank you so much.”She pulled out her phone, they hadn't confiscated it yet in the chaos of multiple arrests. Her fingers moved quickly across the screen:[Sharon, please.

254: The Stones Met
Her lips paused in the process. Sharon had entered, yes. But she wasn't alone. Brigadier Stones walked in behind her.Instantly, Victoria's face went white: “No. No, this isn't—”“Hello, Victoria.” Stones' voice dripped with disdain. He moved to stand directly across from her, his countenance rigid: “It's been a long time.”“I… asked for Sharon,” Victoria whispered shakily. “Not you.”“Funny how life works,” Stones pulled out a chair but didn't sit. “Sharon's here, just like you wanted. I'm here too. Surprise.”Victoria looked at Sharon with betrayal in her eyes: “You set me up.”“You murdered Eunice Hayden,” Sharon said flatly: “Or you helped murder her, either way, you're guilty.”“I didn't! I was there to warn her! The Cartel was going to kill her, and I tried to tell her, and then they shot her, and they shot me too—” Victoria held up her bandaged arm: “Look! I'm a victim here!”“A victim.” Brig. Stones fi

255: Not Over Yet
Achilles halted in his tracks. Around him, the Faithfuls stood still as well, reading the difference in his demeanor “Where are you?” Achilles kept his voice level.“Wouldn't you like to know?” Ethan grinned with intent: “Your security wasn't as tight as you thought. Amateur mistake, really. My twin brother would have been disappointed.”Achilles smirked: “Your brother was twice the man you'll ever be.”“My brother was a fool who died for a country that didn't deserve him.” Ethan's voice hardened. “But we're not going to discuss family history right now. I just called to give you a heads up, as a courtesy.”“Oh really, courtesy? Is that what you call that now?”“This war between us? It's not over. Not even close. The Cartel was just the opening act, nephew. The real show hasn't started yet.”Achilles stood unfazed and chimed in: “Of course, the Archelords.”Ethan's silence confirmed it, then he chuckled afterwa

256: Lion Trademark
“That's the Juma Archelords' mark,” Investigator Anthony said, stepping closer: “I've seen it in old case files. They used it as a trademark twenty years ago.”“Then they're officially back." Achilles' voice stood tall. “And they just declared war on Britain.”His phone buzzed, a different phone; the secure line. He answered.“Vehement Warlord?" The Prime Minister's voice was sharp with stress: “I just received word about the convoy.”“Yes, PM. We're on it.”“MI6 is reporting chatter on encrypted channels. Something big is coming. The Archelords are mobilizing assets across Europe. They're not just after rescuing Ethan, they're planning something deadlier.”Achilles nodded: “Do we have specifics?”“Not yet. But every intelligence agency is lighting up with warnings. Whatever they're planning, it involves Britain directly.” The PM paused: “I'm calling an emergency session of COBRA. I need you there in two hours.”

257: The Hunt
Margaret spilled: “The Cartel tried to kill him. If he survived, why still surface after the last call?”"He says he's gathered incriminating evidence.” Margaret looked up at Achilles. “He wants to help us stop them.”Achilles considered this. Michael Julian had betrayed his father, conspired with the Cartel to assassinate his own father, and tried to kill Margaret. His past sinister deeds screamed distrust.On second thought, but if he genuinely had intelligence on the Archelords...“Set up the meeting,” Achilles decided. “But not alone. You, me, and at least three Faithfuls. Somewhere public we can control any malicious outcome.”Margaret nodded and began typing a response. Sharon's phone buzzed. She checked it, and her face abruptly twisted.“What?” Achilles asked.“It’s Victoria Stones. She's asking to speak with me again. Says she knows about Felix's location. Says she'll trade information for protection.”

258: High Stakes
Achilles followed his instincts and arrived at the escape scene where Brigadier George was briefing him. Other Faithful members went with him.On seeing the carved message, Achilles spoke quietly: “He wanted us to find this. He wanted us to know how easy it was for him.”Margaret ran her fingers along the carved letters: “These weren't done quickly. He took his time like he enjoyed it.”“Warlord!” One of the forensics team called out: “We found something else.”They followed him to the rear of the vehicle. On the ground, deliberately placed, was a phone. Not damaged or hidden, just sitting there, screen facing up.“It's been wiped,” the forensic tech said. “But there's one video file. Saved to the home screen.”Achilles picked up the phone; the video icon displayed a thumbnail of Ethan's smiling face. He pressed play.Ethan appeared on screen, sitting comfortably in what looked like the back of a van. He'd already been f

259: Archelords Shipment
“They saved my life and trained me. They made me into something better than Anthony ever was” Ethan's voice calmed. “And now I'm going to prove it. By destroying everything he built. Everything he believed in.”Achilles retorted: “You're not going to win this.”“I already am winning. Look around you, nephew, I escaped from secure transport. Your security is compromised. Britain is about to be torn apart." Ethan grinned heartily. “And you? You're standing in the dark, chasing ghosts.”Achilles kissed his teeth in agreement: “I'm standing in the light. Hunting monsters, there's a difference.”“We'll see.” Ethan's tone shifted. “Goodbye, nephew. Next time we talk, it'll be over your daughter's grave.”The line went dead.Achilles didn't crush this phone. He handed it carefully to Dora Beauty: “Trace it. I know it's a burner, but trace it anyway. Check cell towers, triangulate position, everything.”“On it, warlord.”Last Updated : 2025-11-13Read more

260: Felix's Trap
Felix Jacobs [Roman Hitler] sat in the corner of a dingy café three blocks from Dock Street. His coffee had gone cold an hour ago, but he kept the cup for appearance. His eyes never stopped moving, watching the street while scanning faces and looking for threats.The text from Sharon Grace had come two hours earlier: [I have the recording. We need to talk. Dock Street warehouse, 11 PM. Come alone]He needed to destroy it, given the fact that Lucia, Michelle, and Victoria Stones had been inactive for hours. He had heard rumors of their arrests.But something felt wrong about the meeting. Sharon had been inactive after Eunice's murder. No contact from her which was unusual. And suddenly she wanted to meet to hand over the recording he entrusted her with?Felix pulled out his phone and texted Victoria Stones. She'd been the one to tell him about Sharon's willingness to deal: [Are you sure about this? Feels like a setup]Victoria's response c
