Chapter 21 “Yeah what do you have for me?” Avon inquired once he picked Simon’s phonecall. “It’s about Damien Barksdale sir,” Simon responded on his end. “Do tell….” “Did a little digging and research on the name, the name did not existed until few years ago. The man however existed, but was under a different name or identity. I found a totally different background on him compared to what you’re informed or told. Your Damien Barksdale use to go by Gregory Ackles, was a commercial model and a social media personality. He got into a fatal accident that nearly ended his life but has him in a coma instead few years ago, around the same year Damien Barksdale came into existence and Gregory suddenly faded out of existence,” He gave the report, clear on the details. Avon scoffed a muted scoff. So Faye wasn’t lying, not like he expected that she was, but it’s still shocking that she was right. “Good Job Simon, but there’s one more thing I’ll need you to do for me?” “I’m at
Chapter 20
Chapter 20 Damian stepped back as an awkward smile lightened his face. “I was about to take my leave, and thought I could bade you a proper goodbye,” he came up with a believable excuse. However, Avon was smart enough to not believe his words. He knew he was eavesdropping, and would rather not push on it. There’s a case more serious he has to deal with. That is, the safety of his little guy, and Death’s abrupt capture of his wife and assistant. “Goodbye!” Avon said to him before he broke back into a run, rushing down the hallway that leads to Atlas’s room. He got there in a matter of seconds as he barged into the room. His sight settled on Atlas cuddled up against the headboard of his bed, shaky and filled with fright. “Mom! Mom!!” He called out repeatedly in whispers, whimpering and riddled with fear. “Hey there little guy.” Avon quickly walked up to him and sat down beside him. “You’re okay, your mom is going to be okay,” he assured him before he drew him close into his arms a
Chapter 19
Chapter 19 Avon excused himself and Finn, took him away to his office to avoid violence in front of everyone at the living room. Damien had stayed back to continue his familiarization with Avon’s in laws. Castian also had to give them space, so it was Avon and Finn alone who went to his office. “I’m just going to ask you once, so your answer better be worth it,” Avon informed as he walked over to his desk, arching his back as he leaned his hand over the desk. “You were gone, why did you leave? And why are you back?” Finn snickered as he looked around the office, “Seriously take a good look at me,” he said as he presented himself in a glaring manner. “Do I look like your assistant? I mean sure I have his face, but does it seem like I’m the man who used to work for you?” Avon stared with confusion, his brows furrowed as he wondered what he was talking about. “Huh?” “Okay let me be straight with you, I am not Finn. Finn isn’t dead… yet, his soul needs to be alive for me to keep his
Chapter 18
Chapter 18 Avon wasn’t expecting Damian to visit anytime soon, but when he got the news that he’s around. He was forced to round up his meeting with Simon, and be on his way back to The Noble House. Soon they rolled into the Noble House’s yard, Avon came down and went straight inside. Everyone was still around, not like he expected them to leave yet, but the living room was still as crowded as he left it. Infact, Damian has joined in on the chatter as he interacted effortlessly with everyone. They were all asking him questions on how he’s related to Avon and other stuffs about him when Avon walked into the scene. “And joining us finally, is the man of the house, give it up for Avon Barksdale guys,” Faye announced, followed by an unanimous applause from everyone. It was creepy, Avon nearly smiled, but instead settled on a smirk as he walked into their midst. His gaze inspected the room briefly to notice Lorraine wasn’t there, neither was Atlas. They must be upstairs in their room
Chapter 17
Chapter 17 Avon, escorted by Castian soon arrived at their next stop. Which in Avon’s words was to visit an old friend. Castian has no idea who this old friend was or what he does, he was curious to see him and observe. As soon as they stepped onto the porch, the door opened wide to reveal a man in his mid thirties, attractive but unkempt. “General!” The man called out in awe, his gaze paled at the sight of Avon. “Simon.” Avon smiled at him. He however, was stuck in disbelief. He’s heard news, rumors about the death of the Dragon General. And his sudden disappearance doesn’t null the sense of those rumors, Avon Barksdale disappeared, he was gone for years. His acquaintances were forced to believe he’s indeed dead like the public announced. “Please come in, come in.” He snapped out of his reverie, opened his door wider for their entrance. “I couldn’t believe it when I saw your face popped into my footage feed, I had to stand up and come confirm by myself. That is it rea
Chapter 16
Chapter 16 Avon came back to his seat, the same time as those who tried to run away slowly crept back into their seats, fear exploded wide on their faces. “Meeting isn’t over or adjourned, and you guys wanted to leave?” Avon tsked as he shook his head disappointedly. “So does anyone have a thing to say about CG going solo? Speak now or forever bent to my will?” He looked around their faces. Their paled gazes, attached to a mask carved out of their fears. None of them could say a word or breathe in opposition, no one wants Frank’s brutal fate at the hands of the Dragon General to become theirs. “If that is the case, then can I get a nod from you that you all agree?” Myriads of positive nods followed Avon’s statement to prove they were in support of any moves he pulled, just to avoid a spot on his bad side. “Then meeting dismissed. However, before you all scurry on and out of here.” Avon stood up on his feet as he walked around the right side of the table, his figure and darkened
