Gina was boiling, anger shone in her eyes and her hatred for Kai showed in every other part of her body but Kai only remained calm as he stared at her.

Though they were nominally engaged, this was really just a marriage arrangement between the Benson and Murphy families.

But ever since Jake had returned to the Benson family, Gina had grown close to Jake, deceived by his hypocrisy, and frequently criticized Kai.

Before Jake’s arrival, she had always shown great affection for Kai and Kai on the other hand had once hoped to change her but he changed his mind after seeing that she was beyond redemption.

“Did you really steal from the Benson family and beat Jake, who hasn’t done anything to you by the way, up?” She sneered as she asked.

Kai didn’t need to say anything because he knew that Gina wouldn’t believe anything that came out of his mouth as she would always believe Jake over him.

“Did Jake tell you that himself?” Kai responded to her question with one of his own and Gina only glared at him, her eyes throwing daggers at Kai.

He didn’t want to argue with her at all, he had an air of indifference around him and there weren’t any signs of amusement in his eyes as he stared at Gina.

He only wished that she would just disappear from his sight but he knew how far-fetched that was considering the fact that she worked here.

To Gina, Kai was being nothing but a nuisance, constantly letting his jealousy for Jake take over and control him but Kai didn’t care about what she thought of him.

“Of course, Jake told me.” Gina finally answered Kai’s question and Kai scoffed. Jake had been feeding not just the Benson family but also Gina lies and there was nothing much he could do about it.

Putting his hands in his pockets, his calm demeanor seemed to anger Gina so much that her stomach churned just being in front of him.

She wanted him to disappear, she wanted to throw him out of the lobby or even the company in general but she had questions that she wanted him to answer.

“What the hell is going on with you?” She asked and Kai raised an eyebrow in confusion, “why are you letting such ugly and vile feelings fester into you?” She added.

“Why are you being so petty and jealous of Jake ever since his return?” She demanded and Kai couldn’t believe his ears but he remained silent.

“You do horrible things to him and yet he has never for once retaliated,” she went on, “Jake was always speaking so highly of you whenever we were together, why are you trying so hard to bring him down?” She added.

Kai only sighed, running his fingers through his hair as he pinched the bridge of his nose and let out an even heavier sigh.

He wanted to get away from Gina’s yapping but he had to wait for Catherine since he doesn’t really know his way around the building.

“Why can’t you learn how to be kind and excellent from Jake, why can’t you learn how to be selfless and respectful from him, huh?” She added.

“In the past, you only seemed to be petty and unable to accept that I was being so close to Jake, but now, you’ve made a name for yourself as a thief and a bandit!” Gina spat and Kai only sneered.

He was still keeping his cool and remaining silent while Gina continued saying condescending and horrible things to him.

He was disappointed in her, utterly disappointed because he realized that it wasn’t him Gina loved, but rather the heir of the Benson family—Jake, the biological son.

“Are you only willing to believe every single thing Jake tells you and not what I say?” He asked, his voice was cold and totally void of emotion.

He raised an eyebrow as he waited for an answer, he was almost willing to give her a second chance but she bursted out laughing sarcastically.

“Did you just ask me that?” Gina retorted as she mocked Kai, “of course I’m going to believe everything Jake says without doubting him for a moment.” She answered firmly.

“Jake is such a kind and sincere person, while you are nothing but a petty, little liar!” She spat, her fist clenching as she glared at him.

“I can’t believe you,” she continued, “how obsessed do you have to be that you even secretly followed me to Rainbow corporation just to cause trouble.” She snarled.

“SECURITY! I WANT YOU TO THROW THIS NUISANCE OUT!” She yelled before Kai could say anything and the security guards soon started rushing closer.

Kai remained calm even as the men stood behind him, he was being humiliated but since he knew that they wouldn’t be able to do anything to him soon, he only smiled.

“Let me make sure I’m getting things right,” he smiled as he looked into Gina’s eyes, reading her facial expression and intimidating her with his presence.

“Does this mean that you’re breaking up with me, you’re breaking off our engagement and don’t want anything to do with me anymore?” He asked and Gina laughed.

She thought that the question was ridiculous because it was clear what she was trying to do, she doesn’t want Kai, Jake is the one she wants so why is he asking her ridiculous questions?

“We should’ve broken up and broken off this relationship long since Jake returned,” she answered firmly, her mind made up.

“Because I only intended to marry the true heir of the Benson family, not you, a mere imposter.” She mocked, laughing at Kai and taking a step away from him.

The security guards were ready to carry out Gina’s orders because they knew her and knew nothing about Kai and to them, Kai was an intruder.

“Sir, you have to leave right now or we would be forced to use force on you and that would be humiliating.” One of the men said and the other joined in.

“We’re going to have to throw you out of here.” The other said and just at that moment, a cold voice rang out, resonating through the air.

“LET’S SEE WHO DARES!” The voice yelled coldly and everyone turned in the direction of the voice to see that it was the company’s CEO, Catherine!

    Groaning, Kai tossed and turned on the bed, his head aching so much that he felt as though his brain was trying to explode, he finally opened his eyes.His vision was blurry, his entire body hurts and it was difficult to keep his eyes open at first but he powered through and soon, his eyes were fully open.“What ha….” The rest of his words were drowned out by his painful wince as he held his head and tried to sit up but soon, two large arms helped him sit properly.“Oh, you’re awake.” Fabio’s voice caused him to turn in the direction of his voice and that was when he noticed that not only Fabio was in his room but Shadow, Lorenzo, Teresa and Catherine were also in the room with him.His eyes widened and right beside him was a mirror that reflected not just the shock and pain that glazed his face but also the bandages that were wrapped around his head.What the hell happened?“What are you all doing here?

    Going on a rampage in the office, the voices in his head grew louder and his desperation to go after Catherine and slit her throat grew even more intense.Lots of questions ran through Kai’s mind as he fought Drakarion for control, never in his life had he felt like two different people before.Smashing his body against the glass, thank god for the reinforced glasses because without it, the building would have shattered under his fury.He was also sure that his grandfather must have used some strengthening elements.“She has to die. She has to die. I’m going to kill her. I’m going to take my revenge on her for what she did.” Drakarion kept saying.The more his anger rose, the stronger he became and the more Kai felt like he couldn’t keep on fighting, he could feel himself losing his body to Drakarion.His heart prayed for someone, preferably his grandfather, to come save him and he desperately hoped that Catherine found somewhere safe because he didn’t know what he was going to do if

    “Are you okay, Mr Grant. Do you need to—”“No. No. I’m fine,” Kai responded before Catherine could finish what she was saying. He’s in a total dilemma, his mind felt messed up and he couldn’t believe what was going on.He couldn’t even wrap his head around it, there were tons of questions running through his mind that needed answers but he didn’t know where to start.The dream he just woke up from wasn’t really a dream, he had gotten immersed in the God Of War’s memory, maybe a little too immersed and right now, looking at Catherine only raised fear in his mind.Is this what reincarnation is? Did he reincarnate as the God Of War?Catherine has to be the reincarnated version of the dancer he saw in Drakarion’s memory, the resemblance was uncanny and he wondered how much she knew.His hands were frozen and even though he was sitting down, his knees still felt weak, his legs were shaking and his head was pounding so hard that he felt like his brain was going to explode.“You don’t look w

    Hearing this, the woman seemed to struggle a little but it was clear that it was futile as Drakarion’s hands grasped her firm buttocks through her long skirt.His mouth went to her neck, her aroma was so intoxicating that he couldn’t help but draw it in. As he intensified both the hold he had on her ass and the kisses he planted on her neck, she stuck at him repeatedly in the shoulders with the sides of her fists.It was as if she didn’t want it. He was fighting against him but at the same time, in doing so, she was drawing him nearer to her.He grasped her by the sides of her head and held her head steady so that his mouth could again find hers and this time stay there.His tongue parted her lips and thrusted between them and soon, Drakarion began pushing her panties off her hips and the woman lifted her ass to grant him an easy access.He lifted himself off her at that moment to unzip and pull down his pants. Her eyes were ablaze with myriad emotions, there was fear and doubt in the

    “Have Mercy. Spare our lives and this wouldn’t happen again.” A voice begged and Kai looked down to see a woman holding her child close to her chest.This was a situation he never thought he could ever be in but somehow, he was right in the middle of it, he was even the one standing in front of the woman.The child’s loud cries sounded like a screech to his ears and he felt hot anger course through him. His heart was racing in the kind of way that conveyed his rage.His chest heaved with each breath he took, looking at the woman and her child, his anger heightened even more and the carnage he had caused didn’t satisfy him one bit.He needed blood. He needed to kill. He needed every single person involved in betraying him to feel his wrath.His fist clenched and his grip around the sharp edged sword he was holding tightened even more as he raised the sword and in one swift movement, the woman’s head was right at his feet.Kai shook, he didn't understand what was going on or why he was
