Kevin jolts up from the bed he is lying down on with a very big gasp for air. He thinks that he has died, because he clearly remembers his cousin, the one he blindly trusted, stabbing him in the neck. Surely, there is no way that he would have been able to survive that. With the amount of blood that oozed out of him, surviving is impossible. Except by a miracle...If this is heaven? Then why can he feel the soft fabric of the bedsheets against his skin, and why can he smell the sweetness of the flowers in the vase by the window? His throat ripples, but a sharp pain pierces him airway. "Argh..." His hand goes up, but it meets a bandage that he never knew was there in the first place. "You still have a lot of healing to do my friend, give it time." He looks up to see who owns the voice. He's a really tall man with the air of a very important person. Even with his very intimidating aura, the man smiles down at him, hands in pocket. "W– where am I? What am I doing here?" Kevin ask

There is a dinner party for an old friend of the family, and Finna and her family have decided to attend. The silence of the Professor is bothering them and they have decided that this party is a good distraction. It's just the eightieth birthday of a rich family's grandmother, but at least it's a good time to show off their jewelry and hear what everyone is saying about them. John is also here, drinking multiple glasses of whiskey, and he glares at Finna when she whispers for him to stop. Killing his cousin came very easily to him, but no news has come about the body found. Why hasn't Roman been arrested or something? Or maybe he is shady and took the bait. Maybe Roman decided to get rid of the body himself. Pumpkin has her hands folded as she pouts with annoyance. Her parents and grandparents have repeatedly urged her to play with the other kids, but she has refused. "I have decided that I won't speak to you all again," she huffs. "I was promised many gifts if I help you ki

Thank God that there is a chair close by, because Finna's legs almost give way under her. Suddenly, she understands the mournful look on the faces of these women. They may just be simple wives whose only jobs would be spending their husband's money, but this announcement has taken the joy away from their lives. To be honest, this whole thing has pissed Finna off badly. It's her chance to achieve her dream and that loser has taken over. "So, this is why the Professor suddenly left the country without warning," a smallish woman, Mrs Lee, laments. "He was supposed to have a business deal with my husband." "Mrs Kent, we know that the Professor and your marriage family are very close. Did you know about him leaving?" Now, all eyes are on her, and she feels sweats forming under her arms. Of course the Professor didn't tell her and her family members when he was leaving the country, but if she admits that, she will never be able to look these women in their faces again. "Um, he inde

"We are getting Athena back tonight," Stephanie declares as she just walks into the house. John is confused. He is just back from working and trying to unwind. The news of the dragon general returning and unseating Gaston Youngman has thrown him off guard. They, the millionaires and billionaires of the city, are going to suffer a heavy fine for all the atrocities they committed during his hiatus. He has been thinking about the fastest way to run out of the country to escape the dragon general, and his wife is suggesting something as crazy as this? "We saw Athena and Auntie Stephanie," Pumpkin explains to him. "Seems like mummy and Aunt Stephanie had a fight, and now she is very bloody pissed." John turns to see his wife, but she is already at the top of the stairs. "Are you serious, Finna? You saw your sister and her daughter and you have decided to go back to kidnapping?" "That's the only way we can make sure that the Professor comes back!" Finna says. "You have no idea what

Before John could say anything to defend himself, he has been made to kneel down, and he is tied up like the rest of his family. The ropes are thick and rough against his skin; he begs for them to adjust it a little, but no one pays any attention to them. More guns and more people are showing up. They are acting like John, Finna, and the rest, are the biggest criminals in this country. Finna almost bites his ear off once he is made to stay next to her. Her face is so red, like she is going to burst. "Really, John? You seriously tried to deny us and get away?" She fumes. "What else would you have me do, Finna? It's your stupidity that got you in this mess in the first place. Besides, the news of our arrest is going to go around the city very soon, and the servants will flee. Who is supposed to take care of Pumpkin?" Finna drops her head with a long sigh. It's almost as if she didn't think of Pumpkin before, because now she starts to quietly sob. "Okay, boys and girls, time to mo

"No,no,no! Daddy, don't let them take me away!" Pumpkin shrieks and hides behind her grandparents. "Come on, let's stop with all of this bullshit," Mr Beerson chuckles. "You say that Roman is the dragon general, and now you are telling us that he has banished our daughter to an institution for troubled children?" "Mister Beerson, I think you are better off worrying for yourself and not your granddaughter." "And what is so bad that Pumpkin has done to be sent to such a place? She is just a child!" Willow places both of her hands on her hips and exhales through her nose. She, of all people, knows about how terrible of a child Pumpkin is. "Since you guys are so unaware of the behavior of your daughter, I will tell you. She almost killed me, a highly trained Soldier, and then she also tried to burn down the dragon general's home, with his family in it!" Willow bares her teeth. "Also, what's the problem? You egged your daughter on. You should be thanking the dragon general, because h

It's been almost a hundred days since Anthony Petrov's takeover of the small neighboring country. The people think that they are to be grateful and happy, because the Professor has chosen to come to run their country, but they have no idea that it was a devious plan from the beginning. The country is the perfect one for Anthony Petrov. Small, controllable, and lots and lots of natural resources. The corrupted leaders of the country discovered an extremely large deposit of oil under the soil of the country, and they have kept this as a secret, because they wanted it all to themselves. Somehow, this vital information leaked all the way to Anthony Petrov's ears, and he decided that this country would be his first target. He carefully used the most radical supporters to expose and remove the corrupted leaders of the country, but the talks of oil never came up...Now, Anthony has made himself very comfortable in his presidential seat, and he is beginning to finalize his plan to dig hi

Only two weeks after the dragon general has taken over the country, a lot has changed. Corrupted officers and political office holders are immediately removed and either thrown into jail, or executed. In no time, the rich start to behave again. They sever all illegal means of getting money, and have become more faithful in paying their taxes. The cartels who sell dangerous drugs to the youth of the country immediately pull out their men from the country, and render apologies to the dragon general. They even offer to be whistle blowers for him, so that they will inform him if any cartel tries to secretly sell anything. Everyone around Roman is telling him that he has done a great job. It's just a few weeks into his presidency, but he is being called the best president of this country. In the meeting room, Roman has his sleeves rolled up with a pen in his hand. His subjects are sitting down quietly, they have been like this for two hours, and they have been able to come up with

The down side about appointing someone as nonchalant as Anthony Petrov as president of a country is that when there is a sudden outbreak of a deadly disease in the northern province of the country, he doesn't really know how to respond. In fact, when the Minister of health comes into his office with a face red with anxiety, he dismiss every suggest approach to curb the situation. His own order is brutal and unlike anything any of the other ministers has ever heard in their professional career. "Block the province and let the people die, and may the strongest of them survive! After all, we have to drop the dead weight from this great country!" The Minister's jaw drops to the ground. "But, sir, these are small time farmers. They may not have a lot, but we need them to help with the agricultural needs of this–" "Are you questioning my orders, Raymond?!" Anthony hits his hand against the table. The man jumps in his suit, in absolute fright. "Never, Mister President. I would never

"Is this the popular Mrs Croft? She is a doctor, and very beautiful!" "She has suddenly changed the heartless president to be like a hen bathed in cold water." "Who is she to him?" Stephanie tells the rest of her team to prepare everything that they need together, and also, make sure that all the supplies they will be needing are going to get to the destination safely. After that, she personally transports Raymond to a nearby hospital, and even treats him. His wife is called and when she sees how disfigured her husband's face is, she breaks into tears, but Stephanie hugs her and tells her that she will fix him. She goes into surgery to reconstruct his face, and stitch up his cuts. After two hours of surgery, the team of the hospital stands outside the glass in awe of her. "I have never seen such a cool first lady in my life!" "Look at the way her fingers move so fast!" Surely, the dragon general picked the best woman in the world to be his wife!""Speaking about that, why i
