King of Tartarus
“Kill him!”“Break his bones!”“Show him who runs this place!”Chaos erupted inside Tartarus, the most dangerous prison in Asheville. A concrete graveyard built to contain the worst monsters humanity had ever produced.Today, a new one had arrived.A hulking inmate stood in the center of the yard, veins bulging beneath tattooed skin. His prison uniform was already soaked in blood.“RAAAH!” he roared, lifting a battered inmate above his head before hurling him across the corridor. The man crashed violently against the steel bars of Cell 001 and crumpled to the floor.“I’m the new King of Tartarus!”His name was Giovani Moretti.Convicted of massacring over three hundred people. Sentenced to one thousand years without parole. He had arrived five hours ago.Fourteen inmates were already in the infirmary.The rest watched in silence.Even in a prison filled with murderers, traffickers, war criminals, and psychopaths… Giovani was something else.“Who else wants to challenge me?!” he bellow
The Hollow Incident
Ten years ago.The Hollow estate.It had been past midnight.The family was asleep when the explosion tore through the front wing of the mansion. Windows shattered. Smoke filled the corridors. The sound of gunfire followed seconds later.Security guards didn’t stand a chance.They were slaughtered before they could return fire.Kade’s parents burst into his bedroom. His father grabbed his shoulder while his mother rushed to his little sister.“Kade. Sofia,” his mother whispered urgently. “No matter what happens, you stay in this room. Do you understand?”“Daddy and I will handle it,” his father added, forcing a calm smile that didn’t reach his eyes.Kade was shaking.He held his sister tightly as their parents stepped out and closed the door behind them.The gunshots grew louder. Voices echoed through the hallway, Sofia buried her face into Kade’s chest. He couldn’t breathe. He moved slowly toward the door. Just enough for him to see through the small opening, he watched his parents f
Departure of The King
“You knew the truth… and yet you still couldn’t deliver justice.”Kade’s voice was low. And yet authoritative.Jeffrey Sky lowered his head even further, his palms pressed flat against the cold concrete.“I… I was ordered to arrest you,” he said hoarsely. “From the first night, I knew something was wrong. The ballistics didn’t match. The CCTV camera captured everything. But the report was sealed before sunrise. I was told to sign it… and stay silent.”“You obeyed,” Kade replied.It wasn’t a question.Jeffrey’s shoulders trembled. “I had a family. A career. I was warned that if I spoke out—”Kade’s gaze sharpened.“So you traded justice for comfort.”The words landed heavier than any blow. “Didn’t you think about my own family?”The two officers behind the Warden felt sweat beads at their temples. They had never seen their superior kneel before anyone. Never seen him look this small.“Please,” Jeffrey whispered. “I cannot change the past. But I can beg you now. My daughter is dying.”K
How can an ex convict cure her?
For ten years, Kade had finally seen the outside world. He stood beneath an open sky.For a long moment, he didn’t move. His eyes rested on the asphalt stretching beyond Tartarus’ massive gates.They took ten years from me. His jaw tightened slightly. They stole his childhood. His name. His future.A dark, simmering vengeance coiled through his veins like a living thing.And I will take everything back.“Shall we go ahead?” Jeffrey asked politely, careful with his tone.Kade gave a small nod.A black SUV waited outside the prison gates. Armed guards opened the door respectfully.Jeffrey instinctively moved toward the back seat—But paused.Kade had already taken the rear executive seat without hesitation.Jeffrey quietly followed, sitting beside him.The driver entered and the vehicle pulled away smoothly, leaving Tartarus behind.An hour later, the SUV stopped in front of South City’s most prestigious private hospital.Glass towers, private security. This was a hospital only the elit
Miracle Doctor
Kade’s expression remained unchanged. However the insults irritated him. “I’m leaving,” he said flatly. “Argue among yourselves.”He turned toward the door.“Please!”The word tore out of Jeffrey’s throat.Before anyone could react…The Warden of Tartarus dropped to his knees.Vanessa froze, she felt like she was in a dream. The doctor stared in disbelief.Jeffrey lowered his head.“Don’t listen to them,” he pleaded hoarsely. “I know what you can do. I’ve seen it with my own eyes. If there’s even a one percent chance… I’ll take it.”Vanessa stepped forward. “Jeffrey, stand up! This is humiliating!”“Enough!” Jeffrey roared.His voice shook the room.Vanessa went silent instantly, even the doctor stiffened.But then the doctor tried to interject again, Jeffrey turned and without hesitation, smacked him across the face.The sharp sound echoed in the ward.“Shut up!” Jeffrey barked. “This is my daughter! I decide who treats her!”The doctor staggered back, stunned and furious.“You’ll re
Young Master?
Every eye in the room turned toward the physician.The head doctor of South City’s most prestigious hospital stood frozen.His mind was in chaos.Honey. Ginger. Pepper. Boiling water.What kind of medicine was that?He had spent thirty years studying abroad.He had chaired conferences. He had authored papers. And this young man…this former inmate had walked in and overturned everything. He looked around the room.Jeffrey Sky, Vanessa Sky, the nurses, the security guards. All watching and waiting.His reputation hung in the balance. How could he kneel? To an ex-convict? To a man with no degree?His pride rebelled violently.“Don’t get cocky, you scammer!” he snapped suddenly, his face flushing red. “She recovered because of my earlier treatments and antibiotics! Her body was already stabilizing!”He pointed accusingly at Kade.“It was coincidence! Timing! Not your ridiculous potion!”The room stiffened. Vanessa’s expression darkened. Jeffrey’s eyes turned cold.The doctor pressed on de
The Azure Organization
Kade’s steps halted.For the first time since leaving Tartarus he looked genuinely surprised.“Who are you people?” His eyes narrowed slightly. “And what is the Azure Throne?”The woman in the black suit raised her head, though she remained kneeling.“I am Zia Makari,” she said calmly. “We were sent by Master Zucker. I cannot explain everything here. Please, follow us. All your answers await.”The moment Kade heard that name…Zucker—His heart skipped.Zucker was the old man.The eccentric, unpredictable, terrifyingly powerful old man who had taught him everything inside Tartarus.“Zucker?” Kade repeated slowly. “You mean the old man?”“Yes, Young Master,” Zia replied without hesitation.Young Master.The title echoed strangely in his ears.Zucker had vanished from Tartarus without a trace. No sign of transfer. Not even a record of his corpse. Kade had searched for months within Tartarus but no one knew where the old man went. Even the guards had no idea who Zucker was. He doesn’t ev
An Arrogant Heir
The moment Kade stepped fully into the chamber. He could feel the pressure. The air itself seemed heavier, as if the atmosphere had thickened around the long obsidian table.Twelve elders. Twelve sources of restrained power.Their auras were not unleashed, yet even in suppression, they radiated dominance.Kade’s senses sharpened instinctively.Each of them…At least Dragon Lord level.A rank beneath the Celestial Realm.In the world of martial arts, power was divided into distinct realms that separated men from monsters.Sentinel, Regent, Sovereign, Dragon Lord, Celestial Realm, Primordial and Apex Primordial Kade himself had only recently ascended into the Celestial Realm.And yet…These twelve men and women sitting before him were monsters in their own right.Their eyes assessed him. Disgust surfaced.“A young man?” one of them muttered under his breath.“Is this some kind of joke?”Murmurs spread around the table.Disappointment and skepticism. A heavyset man with streaks of silv
Elder Chad Bozeman
That was it.The final spark.Chad slammed his palm onto the obsidian table.BOOM.The massive slab cracked instantly, fractures racing like lightning through the polished surface before it shattered into pieces.A violent purple aura erupted around him, swirling like a storm.The temperature in the room dropped. The very air itself distorted.Several weaker attendants near the walls staggered back, gasping.Zia’s heart pounded.She was only at Sovereign level.If a Dragon Lord fully unleashed himself? She wouldn’t last a second trying to intervene.Almost no one in this room could stop Chad if he truly went berserk. Except the other elders.Otherwise…Kade might actually die here.“That’s it!” Chad roared, stepping forward. “You’re going to die today!”He clenched his fist.The purple aura condensed around it, compressing into a dense vortex of destructive force.This wasn’t a warning strike. It was lethal intent.Yet…Kade was smiling.That expression only enraged Chad further.Just a
A Letter from Zucker
Zia dismissed the thought almost as quickly as it had formed.Celestial Realm.Impossible.She had spent fifteen years inside Azure, surrounded by some of the most gifted warriors in the City. She understood better than most what it took to reach the upper echelons of cultivation. Dragon Lord alone required decades of disciplined training, refined technique, and a natural affinity for Aether that perhaps one in ten thousand people even possessed.Celestial Realm was something else entirely.In all of Azure’s thirty year history, only one person had ever stood at that level.Master Zucker.And even he had taken a lifetime to get there.This young man was barely twenty-four. He had spent the last ten years inside a prison. No matter how gifted he was, no matter what Zucker had taught him inside those walls, the idea that he had reached Celestial Realm was simply…She shook her head slightly.Don’t be ridiculous.He was confident. Perhaps genuinely strong. But confidence without matching
