Barry walked back into the villa of the Tiger clan. When he entered, the hall was dead silent. Every member of the clan had watched Barry in action and were astonished by his powers.

They had seen the gunfire. The screams. The sudden, eerie silence that followed. His feats filled their hearts with fear.

One by one, the clan members dropped to a knee, bowing their heads in reverence to Barry. Even the Thors couldn't deny what he had just witnessed with his own eyes.

Thors stepped forward, his legs shaking and his eyes wide with terror. He fell to his knees before Barry, pressing his forehead to the cold stone.

"You... you saved us," Thors rasped, his voice raw. "I was a fool. I doubted you. But you faced the Red foxes alone—and destroyed them without lifting a finger." He swallowed hard. "The Tiger Clan is yours to command. I humbly submit myself to you."

Barry regarded him for a long moment before nodding. "Stand."

Thors obeyed, his body trembling slightly as he rose.

  • Barry Sullivan

    Dexter stood frozen, his cheek stinging from the blow, the taste of copper sharp on his tongue. His fingers trembled as he touched the reddening mark, his eyes wide with shock. Brutus loomed over him, his voice roaring like thunder. "Is this how you behave, you ungrateful wretch? How dare you bring these filthy rats into my house and let them defile me?" . Dexter swallowed hard, his voice barely steady. "Why should they sit on the bench? Mr. Barry is my future brother-in-law, and Snow is my fiancée. I had to show them some hospitality." A sharp laugh cut through the tension. Dexter’s aunt, a gaunt woman with piercing eyes, stepped forward, her lips curled in a sneer. "How dare you speak in that manner? If I recall correctly, you are no longer a member of the Theodore household. And yet, your uncle granted you an audience. Is this how you repay his kindness?" Brutus growled. “Kindness?” He threw up his hands. “I’m regretting it right now! I’ve had enough of this rubbish. Ever

  • Brutus Theodore

    Dexter had just disappeared into the depths of the mansion when the doors of the dining hall swung open. A boisterous wave of laughter and clinking glasses spilled into the sitting room, followed by the Theodore family. At the forefront was Brutus Theodore—Dexter’s uncle.He was a broad-shouldered man with a thick beard and a face flushed from wine. His expensive suit strained against his girth as he strode forward, still chuckling at some private joke. But the moment his eyes landed on the sitting room, his laughter died. His entire body stiffened. Barry lounged in the velvet armchair like a king on his throne, one leg crossed over the other, fingers steepled in amusement. Snow sat nearby, unbothered, sipping from a delicate glass of wine she had apparently procured from somewhere. Brutus’s face darkened. His thick fingers curled into fists. "WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?" His roar silenced the chatter behind him. The rest of the family—uncles, aunts, cousins—froze, thei

  • The Theodore family

    The following week, Dexter boarded a flight back to his homeland with Barry and Snow accompanying him. The mood during the journey was quiet. Dexter’s fingers drummed restlessly against his armrest the entire time. He hadn’t returned here in decades. The thought of seeing his family again filled him with uneasiness.Finally, they landed.As they drove through the countryside in a weathered taxi, Dexter sat beside the driver, his face pale as he stared out the window. Barry and Snow sat in the back, watching him closely.Dexter cleared his throat. "I’ve made arrangements to meet my family at the estate. They agreed to grant us an audience at the family estate"Barry studied him for a moment before smirking. "You look so nervous, Dexter." Dexter swallowed hard. "Well, of course I am. It’s been decades since the last time I laid eyes on them." Snow glanced between them, her expression uneasy. "I’m surprised they were willing to grant us an audience." Dexter let out a humorless l

  • Foundation

    Barry’s expression hardened as he leaned forward slightly. "Why can’t you do that?" he asked, his voice low but firm. Dexter shifted uncomfortably in his seat, his fingers tightening around his coffee cup. "It’s… not that simple," he muttered, avoiding Barry’s gaze. "My family and I aren’t on good terms." Barry locked eyes with him. "Explain." Dexter swallowed, his jaw clenching briefly before he looked up, desperation flickering in his eyes. "Please, Mr. Barry," he said, voice strained. "I love Snow. Let’s just leave my family out of this. Involving them is a bad idea." Barry frowned. "If I don’t meet your family, I won’t give my blessing." Snow shifted beside Dexter. “Barry,” she said softly, giving him a look—a silent plea. “Let it go, please.”But Barry ignored her, keeping his focus locked on Dexter. The tension in the air thickened. Dexter exhaled sharply, his shoulders slumping slightly in defeat. "Fine," he said quietly. "I’ll tell you why." He took a moment to

  • Dexter

    Barry studied Snow’s face for a long moment before asking, "Who’s the guy?" Snow tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear, her expression softening. "Well... I’ve been seeing someone for a few months now. He’s an intern doctor at the city's Central hospital." Barry raised an eyebrow. "An intern?" She nodded. "He’s sweet. Really kind. He proposed a month ago, but... I wanted your blessing before saying yes." Barry exhaled, crossing his arms. "Snow, last time you were with that guy—what was his name? I don’t even remember. It didn’t end well. He turned out to be a scumbag. Are you sure you know what you’re doing? Does this new guy really love you?" Snow’s gaze remained steady. "I did my homework this time, Big brother. I dug into his past, his family, everything." She paused as she took a deep breath. "He comes from money—or at least, he was supposed to. His parents died when he was young, and his uncle took control of his inheritance. Left him with nothing." Barry’s j
