CHAPTER 9 THE BROTHER HELD HOSTAGE
Varek stared at Adrian’s photograph.The man who had spent years trying to destroy him was now tied to a chair in an unknown location, his face bruised and his shirt stained with blood.For the first time in years, Varek felt something other than hatred toward his brother.Fear.Not for himself.For the possibility that someone else was about to decide who deserved to live and who deserved to die.His phone vibrated again.MIDNIGHT. THE OLD THORNE MAUSOLEUM. COME ALONE.A second message followed.IF YOU BRING THE POLICE, ADRIAN DIES. IF YOU BRING SEBASTIAN BLACKSTONE, YOU WILL BOTH DIE.Varek read the messages twice before locking his phone.Then he turned toward Sebastian.“How much do you know about Jonathan Thorne?”Sebastian studied him carefully.“Enough to know that he doesn’t make threats he cannot carry out.”“Adrian has been kidnapped.”

CHAPTER 10 TEN MINUTES TO CHOOSE
The countdown continued. 09:42. 09:41. 09:40. Varek stared at Jonathan Thorne. “My real father ordered my execution?” Jonathan nodded. “Cassian Vale has wanted you dead for years.” “Then why am I still alive?” “Because the people who were supposed to kill you discovered something unexpected.” “What?” Jonathan smiled without answering. Varek glanced toward the two doors. His brother was behind one. His mother was behind the other. And somewhere beyond the walls of the mausoleum, a man who supposedly had been dead for decades was manipulating everyone like pieces on a chessboard. Varek had spent his life being controlled by people who believed they knew what was best for him. He was finished playing their game. “Open bo

CHAPTER 11 THE THIRD BROTHER
“Your third brother has been standing beside you all along.”Eleanor’s words echoed through Varek’s mind.He stared at Adrian, who was struggling to remain upright beside him.Then he looked toward the armed men surrounding the pillar.“Mother, what do you mean?” he demanded into the phone.Static crackled.“Varek, listen to me. The man you trust most is—”A gunshot exploded through the mausoleum.The call disconnected.“Mother!”Varek stared at his phone, but the screen had gone dark.Adrian grabbed his shoulder.“Forget the call. We need to move.”“Not until I know what she meant.”“Do you want to die here?”Varek looked at him.For years, Adrian had been his greatest enemy. He had stolen opportunities, manipulated their father, and made Varek’s life miserable. Yet now they were standing together, trapped inside a mausoleum while armed men

CHAPTER 12 THE MAN WHO KILLED HIS OWN FATHER
For three seconds, Varek forgot how to breathe.Adrian stood across from him with a pistol in his trembling hand.“I killed Cassian Vale,” Adrian repeated.The words echoed through the underground archive.Varek stared at the man he had hated for most of his life. The man who had stolen his inheritance, ordered his death, and spent years making sure he remained beneath the Thorne family’s shadow.“You killed my father?”Adrian’s jaw tightened.“I didn’t know he was your father.”“That doesn’t answer my question.”“Yes!” Adrian shouted. “I killed him!”Varek lunged forward.Adrian immediately raised the pistol.“Don’t move!”Varek stopped, his eyes burning with fury.“You’re pointing a gun at me after admitting you murdered my father?”“I don’t want to shoot you.”“Then put it down.”“I can’t.”“Why?”Adrian’s eyes

CHAPTER 13 THE SON SHE NEVER LOST
Varek stared at the photograph until the edges began to blur.A woman stood beside a hospital window, holding a newborn baby wrapped in a white blanket. Her face was unfamiliar, but the resemblance between the child and Adrian was impossible to ignore.The baby’s eyes were closed.A silver bracelet circled his tiny wrist.On the back, Eleanor’s handwriting declared that he was the son she had never lost.Varek looked up.“Who is this woman?”Adrian shook his head.“I’ve never seen her before.”“Then why do you look like that baby?”“I don’t know!”Varek slammed the photograph onto the desk.“Everybody in this family claims not to know anything. My mother knows nothing. Sebastian knows nothing. You know nothing. Yet somehow, everyone has a secret that leads back to me.”Adrian lowered the gun.“I swear I have never seen that photograph.”“Your face is

CHAPTER 14 THE HEIR WITH TWO FATHERS
Varek Blackstone.The name stared back at Varek from the hospital record.For several seconds, he couldn’t move.His entire life had been built around the name Varek Thorne. Then he had discovered Varek Vale, the identity his family had buried beneath forged documents and stolen inheritance.Now a third name had appeared.Varek Blackstone.And according to the document, Sebastian Blackstone was his father.“No,” Varek whispered.Adrian stood beside him, staring at the screen.“This has to be fake.”Varek barely heard him.He enlarged the image, examining the date, the hospital stamp, and the signatures at the bottom. The document appeared authentic, but authenticity meant little when his entire history had been manufactured.He called Naomi.She answered immediately.“Did you see it?”“Yes. Tell me what I’m looking at.”“An original birth re

CHAPTER 16 THE MAN WHO CALLED HIM SON
“Hello, son.”Varek froze.The voice had come from directly behind him.He knew that voice.He had heard it in childhood memories, in old family recordings, and in the final messages his grandfather had supposedly left before his death.But the man speaking now was supposed to have been buried twelve years ago.Varek slowly turned.A figure stood in the darkness beyond the vault entrance.The emergency lights flickered, revealing a tall man with silver hair, a black walking stick, and a face Varek had seen in hundreds of family photographs.His grandfather.The patriarch of the Thorne family.The man whose death had supposedly left Varek with an inheritance worth billions.Varek’s fingers tightened around the photograph.“You’re dead.”His grandfather smiled faintly.“That’s the first lie they taught you.”Varek reached for the weapon beneat

CHAPTER 17 THE FATHER HE SWORE TO DESTROY
Varek stared at the photograph on his phone.Richard Thorne stood beside Eleanor, holding a newborn baby wrapped in a white blanket. His expression was calm, almost tender, as he looked down at the child.The date printed beneath the photograph was twenty-nine years earlier.Varek read Naomi’s message again.YOUR REAL FATHER IS THE MAN YOU HAVE BEEN TRYING TO DESTROY.Richard.The man who had raised him.The man who had taught him to call him Father.The man who had tried to kill him.Varek’s fingers tightened around the phone until his knuckles turned white.“No,” he whispered.He enlarged the photograph.Eleanor’s face was unmistakable. So was Richard’s.But the child they were holding had a small birthmark near his left ear.Varek reached up and touched the same mark on his own skin.His breath caught.Another notification appeared.Naomi was calling.He answered immediately.“Tell me this is wrong.”“I wish I could.”“You said Richard was my biological father?”“The DNA evidence i

CHAPTER 18 THE PRICE OF A FATHER’S BLOOD
Varek looked at the clock on Richard’s office wall.11:38 p.m.Twenty-two minutes remained.On his phone, the photograph of Adrian’s son stared back at him. The boy’s hands were bound, and fear filled his eyes.Varek had never met the child.He didn’t even know his name.But someone had decided the boy’s life was worth less than a fortune.And someone else wanted Richard Thorne delivered to them before midnight.Varek turned toward Richard.“Who has the boy?”Richard adjusted his cufflinks.“If I knew, I would have dealt with them already.”“You look remarkably calm for a man whose entire family is being hunted.”“Panic doesn’t solve problems.”“Neither does sacrificing children.”Richard’s expression hardened.“Be careful, Varek.”“Or what? You’ll order another assassination?”Richard stood.“You think you can walk into my office, threaten me, and suddenly become the man who controls this family? You have no idea how many people have died to keep this empire standing.”“Then perhaps

CHAPTER 19 THE MOTHER WHO NEVER GAVE BIRTH TO HIM
Varek couldn’t move.The room had become unnaturally quiet, as though everyone inside it was waiting for him to break.Cassian Vale stood before him with bound hands, bruises across his face, and tears gathering in his eyes.But it wasn’t Cassian’s appearance that held Varek frozen.It was his final statement.The woman you call your mother isn’t Eleanor. It’s Mara Mercer.Varek slowly turned toward Mara.She stood near the doorway, her face pale, her lips trembling.“Tell me he’s lying,” Varek said.Mara didn’t answer.“Tell me!”She lowered her eyes.Varek felt something inside him shatter.For twenty-nine years, Eleanor had been the woman whose love he had lost, the mother he had searched for, and the reason he had refused to surrender to the people who wanted him dead.He remembered her voice singing him to sleep.He remembered the way she held his hand when he was frightened.He remembered the last time he had seen her before the supposed accident.Now Cassian was telling him tho
