“Shoot him!” Voices erupted, weapons raised in every direction.

“Whoever kills him takes the money!”

Dozens of guns swung toward Alex. But the moment bullets flew, chaos ripped through the crowd.

“Stop shooting! You’re hitting your own men!” someone screamed—right before a stray bullet tore through his chest.

Gunfire roared from every direction, bullets ripping into the wrong targets.

Alex moved like a phantom, weaving through the storm.

Every slash, every sidestep turned their fury back on themselves.

Blades missed him and cut down allies. Bullets tore through bodies meant to be comrades.

The more they fought, the more they destroyed each other.

Men dropped where they stood, some clutching wounds, others falling lifeless with clean shots to the head.

The scene spiraled into pure chaos—blood, screams, and friendly fire turning the battlefield into a slaughterhouse.

From his vantage point, Charles watched in disbelief. To him, Alex wasn’t battling—he was toying with them.

    The hall went dead quiet. Baroness Wolfsbane stood frozen, her face pale with disbelief.Sofina—always calm, always controlled—was now blazing like a storm. Every guest turned toward her, unable to look away. The room was thick with tension, the kind of silence that loves a scandal.“You!” Beatrix shouted, her voice cracking with rage. “How dare you call your grandmother an old bastard! No wonder—marrying a lowly bastard made you one too. Even your mouth reeks of it when you speak!”“Why not?” Sofina snapped back. “She promised me the deputy seat of the Wolfsbane family if I secured the collaboration with the Eden Group. And I did—every deal, every signature. I made it happen.”Her glare shifted toward Beatrix. “But what did she do? She handed the title to you. Tell me that isn’t betrayal. Tell me that isn’t dishonor. You old liar—you’ve got no honor left in your blood.”Baroness Wolfsbane slammed her cane against the marble floor. “How dare you question my honor! I intended to make y

    Before Heinrich could reach Sofina, Eve hurled its large, egg-shaped body forward, intercepting his knife mid-swing.“Where do you think you’re pointing that weapon?” Eve snarled, its voice sharp and metallic.In the next heartbeat, its small hand shot out like lightning. The slap cracked through the hall — a brutal, echoing strike that sent three of Heinrich’s teeth skittering across the marble floor.He dropped hard, clutching his bleeding mouth, moaning in agony.“Sofina Scheinwald—please!” he cried, his voice cracking with panic. “I’m sorry! I never should’ve spread those lies about you! Please, forgive me! Help me—call off the suit, talk to the police, just save me!”Before anyone could respond, a police drone descended from above with a mechanical hum.“Suspect located. Engaging restraint,” it announced coldly.A sharp electrical crack filled the air as the drone’s taser hit Heinrich. His body jerked violently, muscles seizing, eyes rolling back before he collapsed flat on the g

    “So, you’re choosing the second option,” Alex said.Heinrich’s lips twisted into a cruel grin. “Who the hell do you think you are, threatening me?” he barked, voice thick with arrogance and scorn.A low, mocking laugh followed. “Do you even have the slightest idea who I am?”He turned, spreading his arms, drawing the crowd in like a showman demanding attention.“Look at him!” he barked, jabbing a finger at Alex. Faces turned.“This half-breed servant has completely lost his goddamn mind!” he sneered. “This bastard thinks he can ruin me! I’m Heinrich Schiller! People beg for my time, they fight to have me on their projects!“I’m one of Winchester’s greatest minds! And you—” he stepped closer, “—you’re nothing but a filthy street dog pretending to be a man.”Alex didn’t flinch. He just stared back, calm and unreadable, like someone studying a corpse that hadn’t realized it was dead yet.Alex tapped his bracelet and spoke into it. “Marlene. Heinrich Schiller is accusing Sofina Scheinwald

    Night dropped like a curtain, and the Wolfsbane banquet hall burst to life with laughter and light.This was their night—their triumph—one that would echo in family stories for years.They had spared no expense. The Wolfsbanes booked Winchester’s most luxurious hotel, hired master chefs, poured the rarest wines, and brought in a singer whose voice could wash the weight off any soul.Every detail shimmered with wealth and power.Word had already spread through Winchester like wildfire: the Wolfsbane family had secured the Eden Group contract. Even more shocking—the chairman herself, Countess Marlena Von Adler, would attend.The invitations became golden tickets overnight. Everyone wanted one. Few had the privilege to hold it.Alex and Sofina walked through the hotel’s marble lobby with Eve gliding at their lead — an egg-shaped robot with soft chrome curves.Sofina’s hand found Eve’s smooth shell. She hugged the little machine like she’d hugged a living thing.“Miss Sofina,” Eve said sw

    Annabella’s voice came through the speaker, sharp and controlled. “Thank you for the information, Heinrich.” Then she cut the call.Baroness Wolfsbane sat still, her brow tightening as the pieces fell into place. The story fit too well—too cleanly.Sofina’s sudden rise, that hundred-million-dollar deal that had seemed almost divine—it all made sense now.“She must’ve sold herself to every high-ranking man in the Eden Group,” the Baroness thought, her lips curving faintly.But truth be told, she didn’t care. In fact, she almost admired it.If that was what it took to secure a collaboration with the Eden Group, then it was a price worth paying.A clever move. A necessary sacrifice.She wasn’t going to press charges. Still, this was not something to parade before the family. It had to stay buried.Beatrix stepped forward. “Grandmother, if you make that shameless woman director, you’ll destroy the Wolfsbane name. The whispers will never stop. People will talk.”She leaned in closer, her t

    Baroness Wolfsbane rose from her seat. “It’s a joyful day,” she declared. “Sofina has secured the collaboration with the Eden Group for our family.”Beatrix crossed her arms. “Grandmother, since Sofina’s the one who landed the deal. You promised that whoever secured the contract would be named Deputy Chair of the Wolfsbane Estate. So, who will it be?”The Baroness’s expression stiffened. Her silver brows arched slightly as her mind turned.Yes, she had made that promise—whoever brought the deal home would become director of the family company.But Sofina Scheinwald? The woman she never favored? The very wife of that useless man she could barely tolerate? The thought soured in her chest. What if Sofina gained too much power—what if she slipped out of her control?“Grandmother,” Beatrix pressed, voice sharp and direct. “Are you truly going to appoint Sofina Scheinwald as Baroness-Designate?”The Baroness’s smile vanished. “I gave my word to Sofina. Why shouldn’t I appoint her?”Beatrix
