CHAPTER 77

The presidential limousine moved smoothly through the streets of Ottawa, its dark exterior gleaming under the city lights.

Behind it, over twenty armored vehicles followed in perfect formation, a convoy fit for royalty.

Inside the limousine, silence hung heavy.

Adrian sat by the window, his posture rigid, his ice-blue eyes fixed on the city blurring past. Buildings, streetlights, pedestrians, all moving too fast to register clearly.

But Adrian wasn't seeing any of it.

  • CAMILA VS VALERIO

    CHAPTER 82The boardroom had filled significantly since the Valerio group's arrival.What had started as an intimate gathering of key players had transformed into something resembling a grand spectacle.Along the walls, in plush seating areas specifically designed for observers, sat some of the wealthiest and most influential people in North America.Tech billionaires. Oil magnates. Fashion moguls. Media personalities.All dressed in designer suits and couture gowns, their jewelry catching the light as they whispered among themselves.This wasn't just a business deal.It was entertainment for the elite.A gladiatorial match where billions of dollars and political power were the stakes.Adrian's Imago noted each face with clinical precision, his enhanced senses picking up every whispered conversation, every subtle shift in body language.They were hungry.Hungry for drama. For conflict. For someone to fall.The President's assistant, a severe-looking woman in her fifties with steel-gra

  • THE FINAL BID I

    CHAPTER 81The limousine screeched to a halt in front of the Golden Heights Auction House, a massive, imposing building with sleek glass walls and towering marble columns.The place was swarming with reporters, cameras, and security personnel.Adrian's Imago stepped out of the limousine first.Immediately, the reporters surged forward, shouting questions over each other."Mr. Valerio! You're late! Do you have a statement?""Are you confident about tonight's bid?""What's your strategy against Camila Reyes?""Is it true you're working with Kael Ashford?"The Imago's ice-blue eyes swept over the crowd.Then, slowly, deliberately, they began to glow.Just faintly. Just enough.His pupils expanded slightly, the blue seeming to pulse with an inner light."Excuse me," the Imago said softly, his voice carrying despite the noise.And just like thatThe reporters stepped aside.Their expressions went blank for just a moment, eyes unfocusing, mouths closing mid-shout, then they moved out of the

  • THE IMOGI III

    CHAPTER 80:The alter ego's eyebrows rose slightly, a smirk playing at his lips. "Well," he said, his voice dropping to something almost amused, "this is forward."Lyra ignored him, her expression clinical as she pulled the shirt open wider.Rafael's voice exploded through the room. "What do you think you're doing?!"He moved forward as if to intervene, but Kael grabbed his arm, holding him back."Wait," Kael said quietly. "Let her work."Lyra's hands traced along the alter ego's chest, not sexually, but analytically, like a doctor examining a patient.Her fingers mapped the contours of muscle that shouldn't be there.The alter ego's smirk widened. "You know, usually people buy me dinner first."Lyra's eyes narrowed. "Shut up."She pressed her palm flat against his sternum, closing her eyes. Golden light flickered briefly beneath her hand.Then she stepped back, her expression grave."Look," she said, gesturing to his exposed torso.Everyone's eyes followed.The alter ego's body was..

    CHAPTER 79The alter ego reached up and removed the mask without hesitation, handing it to Lyra as if it were nothing more than a used tissue.Rafael flinched visibly.Lyra took the mask, her fingers brushing lightly over the Valerio crest embroidered in gold thread on the black fabric."Not bad," she murmured, examining the craftsmanship. "Custom work. Expensive silk blend. Good energy conductivity."She walked to the center of the room and placed the mask carefully on the polished hardwood floor.Then she pulled out her phone, tapped the screen a few times, and a glowing system interface materialized in the air in front of her. Translucent runes and symbols hovered, spinning slowly.Lyra's expression grew serious. She rolled her shoulders, cracked her neck, and began to chant.The words were in a language none of them recognized, ancient, guttural, flowing like water and fire all at once. Consonants clicked and hissed. Vowels stretched and resonated.Her hands moved in intricate pat

    CHAPTER 78:The driver glanced back through the rearview mirror. "Yes, Don Rafael? Is everything alright?""Turn the car around," Rafael said curtly. "We need to go somewhere before heading to Syndicate Group."The driver hesitated. "But Don Rafael, we're already fifteen minutes behind schedule. If we deviate now, we'll be late for the bid.""I said turn the car around," Rafael repeated, his tone leaving no room for argument.The driver swallowed hard. "Understood, sir."The convoy began to slow, then executed a synchronized turn, heading in the opposite direction.The alter ego watched the entire exchange with a smirk. "No matter what you do, you can't get rid of me. Because getting rid of me means getting rid of Adrian. And I'm sure you wouldn't want that."Rafael glared at him but said nothing.Instead, he reached into his jacket and pulled out a black face mask, simple, sleek, designed to cover the lower half of someone's face.He held it out toward Adrian."Put this on," Rafael s
