The advanced training session was held in a large auditorium on the third floor—the same floor where Coach Dmitri taught, where Alexander had caught Ashford stealing, where everything had changed.

Alexander arrived early, hoping to find a decent seat where he could observe clearly. The auditorium was filling quickly with the facility's elite trainees—the ones from wealthy families, the ones with natural talent, the ones who'd trained here for years.

He moved toward an empty seat in the middle section. A trainee immediately stretched his legs across both seats. "Sorry, saved."

"For who?" Alexander asked.

"For anyone who's not you," the trainee replied with a smirk.

Alexander moved to another empty seat. A gym bag appeared on it instantly. "Taken."

"I don't see anyone—"

"I said it's TAKEN," the trainee snapped. "Are you deaf as well as worthless?"

This pattern repeated throughout the auditorium. Every empty seat Alexander approached was suddenly claimed, suddenly reserved, suddenly unav

    They tore through the penthouse systematically. Closets. Drawers. Safes. Within twenty minutes, they'd found what they were looking for: a locked cabinet in Vanessa's bedroom containing three aerosol canisters, each labeled with technical-sounding names that meant nothing to the thieves but clearly meant something to whoever had stored them.The leader called Victor. "Got it. Three canisters. Leaving now.""Good," Victor's voice came through the earpiece. "Bring them to the secondary location. Don't come directly here.""Understood."But as they were preparing to leave, Victor's voice came through again: "Wait. The woman. Katarina. Is she still conscious?""Yeah, bound and gagged in the bedroom.""Perfect," Victor said, a smile in his voice. "I'm coming there. Don't leave yet. I want to test the compound before you go."Twenty minutes later, Victor arrived at the penthouse, his heart racing with anticipation. The thieves had Katarina sitting on the couch, still bound, still terrified.

    The next morning, Alexander arrived at Fit Titans at his usual time—5:45 AM, fifteen minutes before his scheduled training session. He'd barely slept, his mind cycling through everything that needed to happen in the next twenty-four hours before Viktor Konstantin arrived.But as he approached the entrance, his heart sank.Lila was waiting for him.She stood near the main doors, arms crossed, her designer workout clothes immaculate despite the early hour. Her expression was a mixture of anger and something that might have been hurt pride.Why won't these people just leave me alone? Alexander thought wearily. What do I have to do to make them understand I don't want any part of their drama?"We need to talk," Lila announced as Alexander approached."No, we don't," Alexander replied, trying to walk past her.She stepped in front of him, blocking his path. "Yes. We DO. About what you did to Ethan yesterday.""I didn't do anything to Ethan," Alexander said flatly. "He attacked me. I defend

    But Derek was beyond listening. His nose was bleeding, his pride was wounded, and he'd just been hit in front of two dozen witnesses. He grabbed Ethan by the collar."You think you can just swing at people? Just hit whoever you want?""It was an ACCIDENT!" Ethan screamed.Derek drew back his fist—and one of his friends grabbed his arm. "Dude, not worth it. He's not even a fighter.""He HIT me!""Yeah, because he's an uncoordinated IDIOT," the friend said. "Look at him. He can barely stand. You really want to beat up someone this pathetic?"The argument escalated. Derek's friends trying to hold him back. Ethan trying to explain. Other trainees taking sides or just enjoying the chaos.And in the confusion, Alexander slipped away.Quietly. Efficiently. Unnoticed.He walked to the parking area, found Vanessa's car, and climbed in."What happened back there?" Vanessa asked, seeing the commotion through the windshield."Nothing important," Alexander replied. "Just Ethan making more problems

    Alexander pushed himself up from the pavement, his scraped palms stinging, his knees bruised beneath his training clothes. He turned slowly to face Ethan, his expression calm despite the pain, despite the humiliation, despite everything.The crowd had grown to at least twenty-five people now—trainees, staff, even some people who'd just been passing by and stopped to watch the drama unfold. And they were all recording, all laughing, all feeding Ethan's ego with their attention."YEAH! That's what I'm talking about!" one trainee shouted. "Put him in his place, Chen!""Show him what happens when nobodies try to act tough!" another called out.Ethan's chest puffed out, his confidence inflating with every cheer. He genuinely believed—in that moment, fueled by adrenaline and crowd support—that he could actually fight Alexander. That he could win.This is pathetic, Alexander thought, reading Ethan's body language, seeing the amateur stance, the lack of training, the pure ego masquerading as

    But the laughter came too. Especially from the Fit Titans trainees who'd never liked Alexander, who'd resented his presence, who'd been looking for any excuse to mock him."HAHAHAHA! Look at the tough guy!""Getting ragged by a CIVILIAN!""Some fighter he is! Can't even handle a basic shove!""Yeah, Howard! Where's all that skill now? Where's that technique you used to beat Marcus Chen?"One trainee helped Ethan up—not Alexander. "Dude, you should probably run before he gets up."But Ethan didn't run. He stood there, grinning, watching Alexander on the ground. "That's where you BELONG. On your knees. In the DIRT. Like the worthless piece of garbage you are."Alexander pushed himself up slowly. His palms were scraped bloody. His knees were bruised. His clothes were dirty.And the trainees were still laughing, still recording, still making this moment into entertainment."How does a 'trained fighter' get dropped by an accountant?" someone called out mockingly."Maybe all that skill in t

    "That's never going to happen," Ethan said with absolute certainty, waving his petition again. "I've already got signatures from important families. Real families. People who matter. And I'm getting more every day."Something in Alexander snapped. Not violently. Not dramatically. But internally—a cord of patience stretched too thin finally breaking.He stepped closer to Ethan, his fists balling at his sides, his body language shifting from tired resignation to something dangerous."Listen to me very carefully," Alexander said, his voice low and controlled. "There is nothing linking you and me. No relationship. No connection. No reason for you to be in my life at all. So I'm going to say this once: stay out of my business."Ethan actually stepped back, some primal part of his brain recognizing threat even as his ego refused to acknowledge it. But then he recovered, puffing up his chest."Or what?" Ethan challenged. "You going to hit me? Right here? In front of witnesses?" He gestured a
