Blood Thirst: God of War Troublemaker!
"You seem to believe you have the right to decide who belongs here and who doesn’t. But unfortunately for you, the world doesn’t revolve around your delusions! As long as we are inside this store, I am a customer– and I'm just as respectable as any other paying customer.”Anna scoffed,"Yes! The word ‘pay’ makes all the difference! And we all know you are incapable of paying for even a paper bag from this store. The world doesn't revolve around me, but no matter which corner of the world you got to, beggars like you will always be inferior to people like me!”Her boyfriend smirked in agreement. "That’s just the truth of the world! Some people are born into respectable families, and all doors open for them… and people like you should just admire things from the outside."Anna laughed, making sure her voice was loud enough to be heard by the surrounding customers.“If window shopping is your new hobby, I would suggest you to find another place to stink up with your presence.”A round
Blood Thirst: God of War True Purpose!
Duke Morgan entered the store, and his powerful aura was enough to make the gathered crowd step back in awe of him. The Duke of Glamorgan was actually blessing them with his presence!Duke Morgan coldly scanned the store, trying to get an idea of what had happened. However, the moment the manager laid eyes on him, the look of arrogance on his face was wiped clean.He blinked rapidly, his mouth opening and closing like a fish gasping for air. He shot a panicked glance at Julius, then back at the Duke, his brain struggling to understand what had just happened. This low class man he had mocked and humiliated… he wasn't faking it? This man had actually called Duke Morgan, and the Duke had actually come there too…?For a split second, his face drained of color, but his instincts quickly kicked in. He plastered on a bright smile, the kind of polite expression he only saved for royalty and billionaires. He hurried forward, nearly tripping over himself in his eagerness.“Ah! Your Grace! Wh
Blood Thirst: God of War Assassins
Julius had been prepared for this outcome the moment he stepped into the Zehra Royale Malll. He knew that powerful people like Duke Morgan naturally had enemies lurking in the shadows, and since their attempts to kill them during the Summit had failed, they would probably try and finish two powerful targets as soon as possible. The manager was tightly clutching the hilt of his dagger in his right hand, while the crowd that had gathered near the store started to scream and cry in panic, trying to get away from the range of the gun as fast as they could. Meanwhile, the manager tried to pull his hand and stab the dagger, but Julius’ reflexes were much faster. While his arm was still in the air, Julius squeezed the manager's neck and pulled his dagger- wielding arm back, dislocating his shoulder from the socket and sending him staggering backward. However, in his desperation, the man clung tightly to Duke Morgan’s leg. The sudden force caused the Duke to lose his balance, and he fe
Blood Thirst: God of War Ambush!
A bounty of $100 Million over the Duke's head, placed by an unnamed person. That was all Anna had blurted out before dissolving into a puddle of sobs, blabbering incoherently. She was of no use to him, and it was better off to get rid of these assassins and leave. But before Julius could do anything, another gunshot rang out behind them. The sharp crack of the bullet sent another wave of panic through the crowd, who screamed while scattering off in every direction.Julius’s eyes flickered in the direction that shot had been fired from. Two figures had emerged from the second floor of the shopping mall, standing behind the railing. They were dressed casually, blending in with the shoppers, but the way they were holding their firearms revealed their true identities.They were Anna's accomplices…Julius barely had time to react before another shot was fired. He ran, holding Duke Morgan by the shoulders and pulling him off to the side, shoving him behind a display case. The bullet aime
Blood Thirst: God of War Red Albatross
As soon as they stepped into the Sail Hotel, Duke Morgan wasted no time. He turned to Julius and Miley, his expression grave,“Come with me. Just the two of you.”Julius and Miley exchanged glances before following him down a corridor. The Duke led them to a secluded, soundproof room, his entire body was tense with urgency. Once inside, he shut the door firmly and turned to face them.“After what has been happening in the last two says, I don’t trust anyone, not even the staff at the hotel.”He admitted, rubbing a hand over his face. “Except you two, and my personal guards. If we had more than two guards with us today, Julius wouldn’t have been outnumbered over there! You may have beaten the odds today, but we may not always be so lucky.”Julius remained silent, standing with his arms crossed, his expression unreadable. Miley, on the other hand, frowned slightly, understanding the Duke’s concern.The Duke continued, his voice low but firm. “From now on, I’m enhancing security—not jus
Blood Thirst: God of War Hammonds Mansion
Early the next morning, Julius and Miley left the Sail Hotel for the Hammonds family mansion, even though Duke Morgan was still worried about their safety and requested them to stay at the hotel– at least until the Morgan family Summit officially ended. And the sun had already covered one third of its path by the time they reached the city. Julius sat in the driver’s seat, one hand casually resting on the wheel, his sharp gaze flicking between the road and the rearview mirror. As they turned the corner to the mansion, Miley stole a glance in his direction before clearing her throat. “So… what now?” She asked, her voice hesitant. “Where are you planning to go from here?” Although Julius hadn't shared much about her past, Miley knew that his ex-wife had kicked him out of their home, and she wasn't sure where he was going to go next. Julius didn’t answer right away, and instead kept his gaze locked ahead, smoothly pulling into the long driveway of her estate. Miley, assuming th
Blood Thirst: God of War Spy!
The moment Julius and Miley were waiting for came faster than expected. A few seconds after Julius asked her to call Duke Morgan for backup, there was a faint but unmistakable rustling in the bushes outside. Julius' sharp gaze darted towards the right, and Miley followed his lead, picking up the subtle creak of a shifting weight on the perimeter wall of the Hammonds’ estate. And before she could ask him what he was planning to do next, Julius moved at the speed of lightning. Miley barely had time to react before he shot up and started striding toward the door. His movements were quick but controlled, like a tiger silently closing in on its prey. He didn’t even bother reaching for a weapon before slipping outside without making a single sound, following the faint sounds of the spy’s movements. Miley played her part well, pretending to call the Duke and announcing that she hadn't received any answer from her yet. After confirming that his targets were caught in a tough spot
Blood Thirst: God of War Long Story!
The Sail Hotel’s grand ballroom was bathed in golden lights– the grand closing gala of the Morgan family’s annual business summit had drawn the most powerful figures in attendance. The Duke of Glamorgan had chosen this as the venue for the closing gala of the business summit, determined to make a statement to his enemies that he would not be forced to hide just because of their attacks. The first day’s opening gala had been tainted by the chaos of the subsequent attacks, and as a result, the second day’s bids had been called off. But tonight, the Duke was determined to end the summit with a display of grandeur, power, and resilience.But of course, the security was tighter than ever. Armed guards patrolled every corner, surveillance cameras scanned every inch of the venue, and guests were only allowed entry after rigorous checks. The elite of the business world were gathered to witness the Summit’s grand conclusion, and among the guests, Julius and Miley made their striking entranc

Not safe
Miley did not remember how much time had passed since they had arrived there, everything was going fine till the power cut out happened without warning. One moment, the safehouse hummed quietly with energy, and the next, darkness fell like a heavy curtain. Miley froze mid-step. She was always afraid of the darkness and Julius was also aware of this.“Backup generator?” she asked in urgency.Julius was already moving, lighting a match and touching it to a candle. One flame flared, then another. Shadows bloomed and stretched along the concrete walls, flickering like silent ghosts.“It’s manual override,” he muttered. “Which means someone’s probing the system.”He moved stiffly. Only then did Miley notice the dark stain spreading across the side of his shirt. Her breath caught.“You’re hurt.”“It’s nothing.”“Let me see it.”“No.”But Julius winced when he peeled the shirt off, and the candlelight revealed the gash…angry and red, sliced across his side. It was not too deep, but it was r
Aim
The safehouse had no corners to escape to. Every wall felt like it was closing in on her. The air, cool and dry, pressed against Miley’s skin like a second, suffocating layer. She had wanted this—wanted to be close to him, to share space with him, to not be left behind.But now that they were here, sharing the same walls, the same oxygen, the weight of proximity felt unbearable.Everything was getting on her nerves , everything was making her anxious, make her extremely unable to control her emotions, as it was already not enough that everytime she has been seeing Julius she was getting butterflies in her stomach already that, now she has to witness his care from the closest proximity possible and keep it hidden because of the tensed situation they were going through.Thinking this she was walking towards the bed.But the next moment she tripped over a belt of ammo near the foot of the bed and cursed under her breath. Julius did not say a word. He simply looked at her from where he sa
Survival
The safehouse was carved into the mountainside, invisible to the eye unless you knew exactly where to look. A thick steel door sealed them inside, followed by a pressure-lock corridor that scanned their vitals as they passed. Miley flinched when a beam of light swept over her eyes, but Julius barely reacted.“Security layer. Measures vitals, heat signatures,” he said. “It will prepare medkits if anything’s off.”The main room was minimalist..cold stone walls, reinforced by metal panels, a compact kitchenette, one small table, and a bank of screens tucked into a recessed alcove. There was only one bedroom, a narrow hallway leading to it. The cot inside was clean but spartan. A single dresser. But there were no windows.Miley wandered while Julius ran diagnostics. The silence pressed in, broken only by soft beeps from his console. She moved toward the far wall, noticing a slight variation in the paneling. She touched it. A soft click responded. The panel hissed open, revealing a concea
Scared
Miley questioned the need for secrecy, her voice low but firm, it was not the answer that she was expecting. “You did not tell me where we were coming, now don't you trust me to tell me where exactly we are…and most importantly why this place is like this ?”Julius did not look at her. His hands gripped the wheel, as he was cleaning it, while turning it in circular motion with full force, and suddenly the electricity sparks making the entire place lit with the yellow bulbs, his knuckles becoming white because of the cold and the force. “I am sorry Miley, but I can not lose you to carelessness, the less you know about anything, the safer you would be” he growled, the finality in his tone closing the door on any further argument.She remembered how they had left under the cover of night, the hum of the engine blending into the darkness that swallowed them whole. How the city lights dwindled behind them, replaced by stretches of empty road. The silence inside the vehicle pressed dow
Packing bags
Everything was going extremely opposite in her life, everything was ready to reach the rock bottom, but still she wasn't afraid.She knows that there was an active threat on her life and she should be afraid of it, but her belief in Julius was making her so strong that she was not worried about anything anymore.She knows that till Julius is by her side he would not let anything happen to her in any circumstance and that was why she was finally becoming calm and was sipping her coffee.The phone rang just as Miley was finishing her coffee. Its sharp tone echoed across the high-ceilinged drawing room of Julius’s mansion, slicing through the still morning air like a knife. She frowned because it was her mother’s number.Except it wasn’t a normal call. It was routed through three emergency channels, encrypted and re-routed via satellite pingbacks. That alone made her stomach twist.She answered immediately. “Mom?”A panicked voice crackled through the line. “Miley! Oh thank God, you pic
Drone
Miley awoke to the sharp, incessant buzzing of her phone. Disoriented, she blinked against the early light filtering through the curtains and reached blindly for the device on her nightstand. At first, she expected a calendar alert or a routine message from the finance team. But as her vision cleared, her heart began to thud heavily.Dozens of notifications blinked across the screen. News alerts. Encrypted chats. Three missed calls from her assistant, and one message stood out in bold, red encryption: "URGENT. You have been compromised."Frowning, she tapped the link embedded in the message. It took her to a browser she did not even know she had installed a dark web relay portal, black as pitch and crawling with warning symbols. And then she saw it.TARGET PROFILE: MILEY COLTON (ALIAS: NIGHTINGALE)Status: ACTIVE. High-priority asset.Current location: [City Redacted, GPS Coordinates— Pending Confirmation]Known routines, preferred hangouts, vulnerabilities, financial signature, fam
Rented
The luxury gifts were still shimmering in their designated spots, the vintage sports cars with a chrome finish, stacks of designer items, and flower arrangements worth a fortune.And as the crowd was about to shift completely against Lorence, he suddenly scream at the top of his lungs while laughing out loud;Ohh my God! I never knew that someone could be this useless too!! Like just to prove yourself as a worthy person, you have spent your wife's hard earned money in renting these fake gifts and the vintage cares! Do you even know how hard it is to make money? Or a freeloader like you only know how to spend it?Because I know it clearly a man like you can't even afford the chrome finish of this car.Lorence's words once again gave the blow to the dying fire and people started to murmur again, as the possibility of renting those things suddenly started to make sense, instead of buying them, because how can a man, dressed in completely simple clothes, afford all of that.And if he did
Wedding gift
Lorence hesitated, only for a breath, but it wasn't long enough for someone to notice.“Why should I entertain your little drama?” he snapped, then pointed abruptly toward Miley. “And what about her, huh? She’s the real reason we are even talking. A woman like her, who should be compared to a Goddess…this elegant, capable, stunning woman, does not belong with someone like you, who does not even provide her the basic necessities, let alone the luxuries!”He stalked toward Miley with practiced charm in his voice.“She deserves a man who does not lie. Who does not humiliate her with cheap stunts like this just to make himself look good.”Miley’s eyes narrowed, but she stayed rooted in place.“I mean, look at her,” Lorence continued. “She walks like a queen and talks like one. You think you can match her presence by flinging a couple of fake gifts around and hoping we are all stupid enough to buy it?”Lorence’s words made the way for more murmurs. As few people standing there had a few n
Finger print
As Lorence mocks him for being poor, Julius simply tilts his head, his voice was extremely cold but it was still calm. “Are you sure you brought all of this?”The crowd became quiet.Lorence’s smirk twitches. “What does that supposed to mean?”Julius steps forward. “You are proudly claiming credit for gifts you did not even know were arriving today.”Lorence scoffs. “Do not tell me you think you did all this , two vintage cars, designer boxes, custom packaging?” He lets out a dry laugh while continuing further. “Please. You could not afford the chrome finish on the door handles.”Julius lets the words settle first and waited him to finish, then adds:“You talk loud for someone who does not know what his own father is doing behind his back.”Now everyone is paying attention again, as this was something going to be a very interesting gossip, as by now they had stopped listening to them thinking that they were busy in some love rivalry drama, but now it was complete politics and the g
