Chapter Ten:

The room smelled of expensive tobacco.

A middle-aged man sat in a leather chair that had been imported from Italy, his fingers wrapped around a carved wooden pipe. Smoke curled upward in lazy spirals, disappearing into the dim light of the chandelier above.

He was in his early fifties, but his face looked older—lined with years of violence and paranoia. His hair was silver at the temples. His eyes were gray and cold, like winter frost on a windowpane.

    The rescue team dispatcher answered on the first ring."Coast Guard, what is your emergency?"Lisa's voice was small, almost childlike. "I need to report a missing person. My husband. He was on the Sea Serenade. The cruise ship that went down in the storm."There was a pause on the other end. Then the dispatcher's tone changed. "Ma'am, the Serenade sank approximately three hours ago. Search and rescue operations began immediately. Why are you only calling now?"Lisa gripped the phone tighter. Her nails dug into the plastic case. "I—I was dealing with an emergency. A friend of mine had a medical crisis. I had to take him to the hospital."Another pause. Longer this time."Ma'am, I'm going to transfer you to the Captain. Hold on, please."The line clicked. Static hissed. Then a man's voice came through—rough, tired, and sharp as broken glass."This is Captain Reeves. Who am I speaking to?""Lisa Crawford. My husband is Darius Hamilton. He was on the Serenade. I need you to find him."Re

    "He hung up on me," she said, her voice trembling with indignation. "He actually hung up on me."Harry, who had been sitting at the kitchen table with a glass of water, looked up with practiced concern. "What did he say? Is he coming back?""No," Lisa said, her jaw tight. "He's being unreasonable. He won't even listen to reason. He kept on splitting rubbish!"Harry stood and walked over to her. He placed a gentle hand on her shoulder. "Maybe he just needs time. You know how men are. Their pride gets wounded, and they lash out."Lisa shook her head. "It's more than that. He's never acted like this before. He's always been so soft and predictable. So easy to manage. But last night, when he walked through that door, he looked different. He looked dangerous."Harry's eyes flickered. For just a moment, something cold and calculating crossed his face. Then it was gone, replaced by the soft, helpless expression he wore like armor. "Darius would never hurt you, Lisa. He loves you too much. He

    He was in his early fifties, but his face looked older—lined with years of violence and paranoia. His hair was silver at the temples. His eyes were gray and cold, like winter frost on a windowpane.Behind him, two bodyguards stood like statues. Their faces looking tough and dangerous. In front of him, on their knees, were four men.Blade was at the front. His face was a mess—one eye swollen shut, his nose bent at an unnatural angle, his lip split and bleeding. The other three looked even worse. One of them couldn't even kneel properly; his arm hung limp at his side, clearly broken.These four men are beaten by Darius Holloway. Thomas took a long drag from his pipe. He held the smoke in his lungs for a moment, then released it in a slow, deliberate cloud."Blade," he said, his voice soft and dangerous. "Tell me again what happened. Where is Elena? Don't tell me she did all these to you guys."Blade swallowed hard. His throat bobbed. "Sir, we found Elena. Just like you ordered. We cor

    The lady gasped uncontrollably. She couldn't fathom how fast he move. She had seen men fight before. She had grown up in a world where violence was currency, where strength was the only language anyone respected. But she had never seen anything like what had just happened.Five armed, dangerous men.

    Elena stood frozen on the rain-slicked pavement, her chest heaving, her palms still raw from the fall. She watched as the man before her fought marvelously. Her eyes glint at every moves he took. With one punch, he knocked out one of the men who was rushing towards him with a baton. She watched as Darius kicked the man into the gutter, while he dampened his clothes. The gang leader was visibly amazed and furious, he couldn't understand how Darius was able to beat up his men. “You useless brat! You really think you can fight! You just fought with my weaker men.” " Boys, get him! Beat him mercilessly, I want all his limbs broken. I need to kill him myself for disrespecting me!” He bellowed in fury.
