Thank you]."Damon, are you sure?" A gruff voice said. This voice belonged to Carlos Alberto, vice leader of the Dragon's Head Mafia group. Facing him was his leader and friend, Damon Mateo, burly but not overly muscular., a handsome face and dressed in a neat Italian suit."Yes Carlos, I will not only be stepping down as your leader, but I will also move out of New Haven City in a week with my family." Damon said with a smile on his face. He couldn't wait to finally reunite with his wife and daughter. It's been two years since he saw them. He left when his daughter, Amelia was just two years old. This was to protect them from the Mafia world, and now he's resigning, without the mafia's knowledge of course, he felt it's best to leave the city with his family and live quietly and inconspicuously."The four elders w

Detective Jemma“Detective!” A man dressed in police uniform called out to a lady a few feet away from him. She was in her early thirties, and dressed an affordable suit, she had this mature charm around her that enhanced her beauty.The cop watched as she walked over to him.“Found anything?” She said in a voice that sounded too angelic for a detective. She was nicknamed succubus, this was due to her out-of-this-world beauty, and the fact that it made men lower their guards even when they knew she's bad news, and could only helplessly stand like lovestruck idiots while she took them down. This was Detective Jemma Mensa.“No ma'am.” The cop said, “But from what we gathered, there wasn't any forced entry, nor any fights. This only means that…”“Whoever came for them was someone they knew.” Je

Thank you.]"Welcome poor unfortunate soul!" A voice that seemed to be full of gravel and grits sounded in an endless boundless space. There was nothing but darkness.. no star nor moon. Damon found himself floating in this darkness, he could hear the voice but he saw no one."Are you the devil!? Is this hell? It's more powerful than what the priests made us picture it." Damon said to the infinite darkness."Devil!! Hahahaha! I am no such thing. I am the Revenant System. I couldn't help but sense your soul habors bottomless hatred and anger. This piqued my interest.. so I ask now, what do you seek!?" The same demonic voice said.Damon gritted his teeth as he heard the voice. The death of his wife and daughter flashed before his eyes. He could still see his wife being raped over and over by the seven men
CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE: Attack On Centenary Building
Dean stepped out of the bathroom. Today his daughter, Mitchell will begin schooling. And he will also begin active recruitment for his new company.Last night he had kept busy, not with his company plans or anything related to it, rather he had to ensure his secret as Eden Wealth remains a secret, and to make sure anyone who knew of his true identity kept their mouth shut. This made Dean call Maxwell Irons, Ashley's father. He specifically instructed him to make sure Ashley called her friends who were present at the restaurant that night, to keep their lips sealed about his affairs in Alerion City, or suffer the consequences Ashley had agreed without much persuasion. Perhaps she now understood the fact that her family's future was tied to Dean, and as such, if she wanted her family to maintain their current influential status, she needed to swallow her pride and obey his orders. And just like that, Dean had issued a gag order on everyone who knew about his real identity.Just as he
CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO: Infiltration
PHILIP POVThe Boss had ordered for the head of the attackers, and frankly, I was fine with it. I've been itching for some blood and gore.. this bodyguard job is as boring as shit. Just then my phone's screen flickered to life. It was a text message from Boss.«Ten thousand for every attacker's head.»I whistled, it seems Boss is pretty much pissed right now. I took out my walkie talkie, “Alright listen up ladies. We're on a hunt right now, and believe me when I say that this might just be the best goddamn hunt we've ever had. Boss has put a bounty on these fuckers.. ten grand per head. So every fucker you kill and get his head, you get ten grand a head.” I said over the walkie talkie, I could hear the excitement of my men, and why won't they be.. there's no better pep talk than huge financial reward.“Now I want to make this perfectly clear. We're going in there without the police, and if we succeed in rescuing any survivors, Boss will surely reward us. So this a bounty hunt and a re
CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE: Battle
MERCENARY LEADER POVI kept mute as I watched my men shovel people inside the hall. I could feel it within me, this was gonna be the best job I've ever taken. Who would have thought that my boys and I will be three million just to disrupt some construction work. Though something felt off about the offer, but I wasn't going to complain, besides I've led raids into military camps and survived.. what more could possibly threaten me on civilian soil.“Aguero and Cheese aren't back yet, Boss.” One of my men came to me and whispered to me. Just as I was about to ask him to wait a bit, the door clicked open and my supposed missing men walked in.“There they are, you worry too much.” I told him. I wasn't going to fault him for that. Bernardo’s overcautious nature had saved us a lot in the past.“If you say so Boss.” He said and went behind me.I stood up from the couch, and walked towards the crowd crouched below.. it was time to make a statement.*PHILIP POVThe man who had been sitting on
CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR: Act Of War
Dean was pacing forth and back in his study at his house. Clarice was standing watching him. She knew how damaging this could be to her boss's reputation. If word got out that the people who agreed to work him got attacked and completely annihilated, no company will agree to work with him again for fear of meeting the same fate.RING! RING! RING!Dean's mobile phone rang. He immediately took it, saw it was Philip calling and accepted the call.“Please, for the love of God and all that is good, give me good news.” He said in a pleading tone.“The operation was successful Boss. All mercenaries have been eliminated, though we suffered two casualties, and multiple civilian casualties, nevertheless, mission was a success.” Philips voice sounded through the speaker. At this, both Dean and Clarice let out breaths they didn't know they were holding in.“Did you get me their heads? And also who to thank for this damages?” Dean asked, his voice dripping with malice.“Yes Boss. All heads account
CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE: Power War
Silence settled in the living room after the recording ended.It wasn’t the calm kind of silence.It was the kind that comes before a storm tears through a city.Dean leaned back slowly into his seat, fingers interlocked under his chin. His eyes were no longer burning with rage.They were cold.Calculating.Clarice was the first to speak.“Boss… if we release this recording, the Mercedes family will come under heavy investigation. Pascal clearly admitted knowledge of the attack. That alone is enough to cause an uproar.”Maxwell Irons adjusted his glasses. “Not just an uproar. The shareholders will panic. Banks will freeze cooperation. The National Commerce Oversight Board will intervene. Their stock value will drop overnight.”Philip crossed his arms. “We could finish them completely this time.”Dean shook his head slowly.“No.”All three looked at him.“No?” Clarice asked, surprised.Dean stood up and walked toward the glass wall overlooking the city lights of Alerion.“Destroying th
CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX: Control The Output
The night air on the rooftop was cold.Dean stood with both hands resting on the metal railing, staring at the glowing skyline of Alerion City. Below him, traffic lights blinked like restless eyes. Somewhere in that ocean of lights, Clinton Mercedes was planning his next move.Clarice stood beside him, her heels clicking softly against the concrete.“They didn’t just buy Horizon Media,” she said quietly. “They bought influence.”Dean gave a faint smile. “Influence can be bought. Loyalty cannot.”Clarice looked at him. “Boss, Horizon controls seventy percent of the city’s mainstream news coverage. If they decide to paint you as unstable or dangerous, public perception will shift fast.”Dean turned to her slowly.“Then we don’t let them decide.”*The next morning.Eden Royalty Headquarters was unusually tense.Employees whispered in corridors. Phones rang nonstop. Notifications flooded screens.Maxwell rushed into Dean’s office holding a tablet.“It’s started.”Dean took the tablet.He
CHAPTER THIRTY: No More Lines
Dean stared at the picture for a long time.Philip’s younger sister.Coming out of her apartment building.Unaware.Unprotected.Targeted.Another message followed.We can visit anytime.Dean’s jaw tightened.The air in his study grew heavy.He slowly picked up his phone and dialed Philip.Philip answered immediately. “Boss.”“Where is your sister?” Dean asked calmly.Philip paused. “At her apartment. Why?”Dean sent him the picture.Silence.Then Philip’s breathing changed.Low.Controlled.Dangerous.“Who sent this?” Philip asked.“Unknown number.”Philip didn’t shout.He didn’t curse.That was worse.“I’ll handle it,” he said.“No,” Dean replied firmly. “You won’t act alone.”Philip hesitated. “Boss—”“This crossed a line,” Dean said quietly. “But if we react blindly, we lose control.”Philip’s voice was tight. “They’re threatening my family.”“And that is exactly what they want,” Dean replied. “They want you angry. They want you reckless.”There was silence on the line.Then Phili
