Chapter 96-Code 1
Alec’s voice was still echoing like thunder in the marble hallway when Elijah’s eyes shifted—just slightly.Livia caught it.A flicker. A signal.Her trembling eased. Her eyes sharpened.As Alec continued monologuing—drunk on power, deaf to the danger—Livia’s small fingers twitched against the rope binding her wrists.“…if your game is boring,” Alec sneered, pacing like a lion. “Then I’ll kill her now.”That’s when Livia bit.Hard.“Aghh—!” Alec howled in pain as her teeth sank deep into his hand. The gun clattered to the floor with a metallic thud.“LIVIA, RUN!” Elijah roared.Livia sprang from the chair like lightning, her bruised arms pumping as she bolted. Elijah moved with bloodied vengeance—*charging*.With a primal yell, he *speared* Alec into the glass wall beside them. The two men crashed down hard, Alec’s head snapping back against the floor.“GO!” Elijah bellowed at Valeria, his voice hoarse but powerful.“Livia, this way!” Valeria screamed.Livia turned and sprinted into t

“Elijah!” Valeria shouted, her voice cracking.The guards were closing in fast, boots thundering on the marble.Elijah stepped in front of her, chest heaving, arms wide like a shield.“Run,” he growled. “Valeria, go—now!”“But I can’t leave you—!”He turned, his eyes hard. “I said run.

His hands curled into fists as he rolled up his sleeves slowly. “Alright then,” he muttered, stepping forward. “Which of you wants to go first?”The guards tensed, ready to charge.But a voice interrupted from behind.“Really, Elijah?” Alec stepped into the corridor, his tone calm—too calm. “Must everything end in violence with you?”Elijah’s jaw tightened. “Says the man who kidnapped my own daughter… and locked her in my own empire like a trophy.”Alec smiled faintly, brushing invisible dust off his designer blazer. “I thought you were a businessman, not som

The ticking wall clock was the only sound in the room, slicing the silence like a blade. Mr. Quinn stood like a statue behind the mahogany desk, arms crossed, his sharp gaze locked onto the boy kneeling before him. "Look at me, Caleb." The boy flinched, his eyes fixed on the floor. His knees pressed hard against the cold tile, jeans stained with dirt and something darker. He dared not raise his head. Mr. Quinn's voice dropped, slower, colder. "You want to be seen? You want the world to follow you? Then you must learn the rule…" He paused, taking slow steps forward, the floor groaning under his boots. "—the world only follows a man who doesn't feel pain." Caleb swallowed hard. He didn’t understand the world. Not really. All he knew was that love had a face in his house—and it wasn’t his. It was Elijah. Always Elijah. Mr. Quinn reached for a small wooden shelf to his right. On it lay scattered tools—papers, files, a half-empty bottle of whiskey, and beneath it all, a
