Caleb stood up from his seat, and yelled “What?”

No way did he expect such a bad report from Dyesi especially now that he is now part of the Lioness Den.

A few days ago, Caleb met with Dyesi for a request. Because of the level of his job in the empire, he hardly has enough for himself. He wanted to have more income before inheriting Scott Empire from Muna. So he asked her to take him in as her side-kick in The Lioness Den.

If she accepts him, he promises to support her in any way he can and he'll make sure that their activities remain a secret as long as he is breathing.

Dyes had no option but to say “Yes!”

But she made something crystal clear to Caleb. She warned him “No matter what trouble the Syndicate may fall into, he must ensure that he protects and helps them come out of it!”

Caleb agreed. Now, he is second in command in the illegal business!

“Why are you still quiet, Caleb?” Dyesi toned in, jolting Caleb from his thoughts. “I hope you haven't forgotten the promise you made! Y

  • 188. Regha Has A Plan!

    “Stop!” Elena roared, her voice cracking with desperation as she lunged forward, gripping her mother’s hand tightly. “Just stop this, Ma! Stop it! I’ll follow you to the Ruffian White House—just don’t hurt yourself!”The jagged bottle trembled in Rita’s grasp. Slowly, she eased the pressure against her neck, the dangerous edge lowering until it hung limply at her side. Elena pulled her into a firm embrace, her arms wrapping around her as though she could shield her from herself.One point down. One plan a success.Rita allowed herself to be held, her body softening in her daughter’s arms. Deep down, she had always known Elena would stop her—her daughter’s stubbornness had its limits when life was at stake. But even so, the thought flashed through her mind like a cold wind: What if Elena hadn’t stopped me? Would I have really… died?“I’m glad you didn’t hurt yourself, Mother. I was worried sick about you,” Maya’s voice cut in, carrying a false sweetness that made Elena’s skin prickle.

  • 187. Agree To My Condition Or I Kill Myself!

    Edgar’s stomach tightened the moment Elena’s words landed. If she refused, then everything they had discussed would crumble. Without her begging the Ruffian Lord, there would be no invitation to the Ruffian Moon Celebration—and without that invitation, their hopes of crawling out of poverty would vanish like smoke.Rita let out a short, incredulous scoff, her eyes narrowing at her daughter.“Did you just say you will not be going with us to beg the Ruffian Lord?”Elena lifted her chin with calm defiance.“Yes. I won’t be going with you. If you want to go, fine—nobody is stopping you. But will I go with you? The answer is no.”Rita’s voice rose, trembling with fury.“Have you lost your mind, Elena? Edgar finally comes up with a solid plan after all these years, and you’re throwing it away? For what possible reason?”Elena didn’t answer.Edgar stepped forward, forcing a smile that didn’t reach his eyes, trying to smooth the moment before it exploded.“Look, Elena… I understand what you’

  • 186. Lines In The Sand!

    Rita rose slowly from her chair, eyes narrowing at Edgar, who stood in the doorway holding his smartphone like it was a ticket to salvation.In her head, she was already sighing. This useless boy has started again.Ever since Edgar lost the wealth and influence he once flaunted, Rita had stopped taking him seriously. In her mind, anything he said—any “plan” he came up with—was as worthless as dust. She didn’t bother hiding her disdain.“If this is one of your stupid pranks,” she warned, her voice sharp as glass, “you’d better start packing your luggage. Because after that prank, you’re getting thrown out of this mansion. Immediately.”Edgar only grinned, as if her threat amused him.“You don’t have to worry about whether I’m joking or not,” he said. “The truth is, I’m doing everything it takes to pull not just you, but this entire family out of this stinking pit of poverty. In fact—” his smile widened “—I’m about to elevate us.”Maya, who had been slouched on the couch, sat up straigh

  • 185. Edgar Has A Plan!

    Back at the Froston mansion, life had taken a steep plunge downhill. The grandeur and comfort they once knew had vanished; now, even putting food on the table was a struggle. Meals were smaller, shelves were emptier, and the tension in the air was heavier than ever.Maya knew she couldn’t sit around and watch hunger tighten its grip on them. She’d been scouring the city for work—anything that could pay well enough to keep them afloat—but each attempt ended the same way.If the job required qualifications she didn’t have, she was turned away. And when she did qualify, her name did the damage before she could even step through the door.Today was no different. She had applied for a receptionist position at Royal Hotel, only to be dismissed before the manager even glanced at her credentials. That was when the truth came out—and Maya finally lost her patience.She stood in the small, polished office, hands balled into fists, her voice sharp with frustration.“What do the other applicants

  • 184. Aria X Rehinna!

    Seeing Rehinnna’s face again—after all these centuries—filled Stone Reghas with something close to joy.A cruel, dark joy.It was as if the pieces of his life, shattered long ago, were falling back into place. The vengeance he had carried in his soul for ages burned hotter with every heartbeat. The picture Eddie sent was no longer just a job—it was the key to his true mission.Before Eddie could say another word, Stone cut in, voice sharp.“Consider the job done.”He didn’t care who this Franco Milton was. The only thing that mattered was the woman standing beside him in the photograph. Aria.Or… not Aria.No. Stone’s blood boiled as the truth struck him—it was her. Rehinnna.He walked slowly toward his private chamber, eyes locked on the glowing image in his phone. Every step seemed to stoke his rage. His mind replayed the same venomous moment over and over:> “He tried to take advantage of me! He raped me!”The false accusation. The lies. The betrayal that ruined him.And then anoth

  • 183. Stone Reghas!

    Stone Reghas. The name alone was enough to silence rooms and haunt the dreams of world leaders. For decades—maybe even centuries—he had walked the earth, untouchable, unstoppable, and unseen. No one knew how long he had lived. No one dared to ask. Nations had tried everything—covert strikes, high-grade tech, even supernatural means—to stop him, but none had ever succeeded.He was more than an assassin. He was a legend carved in blood and silence.What made him terrifying wasn’t just his immortality or the supernatural powers that pulsed beneath his silver-clad skin. It was the fact that he never failed. Once Stone Reghas accepted a contract, the target was already as good as dead. High-profile politicians and their enemies had long realized that if you wanted someone wiped from the world—completely erased—Stone was the man to call. And he never needed to ask twice. His jobs were done with brutal precision, and no matter how secure the location, the man always found a way in.And out?
