"Get off the floor, Boss. Mourning your fate in the dark will not bring your wife back."
The sound of footsteps accompanied by a very faint mechanical hum broke the silence of the apartment. The click of the door, which had previously been locked tight, now sounded softly. David Vexley did not lift his head from his knees. He remained seated on the thick living room carpet, letting the darkness swallow the remnants of his pride after Elena left him a few hours ago.

A Mortal Father
"Tactical team, descend to the Eden Project right now! Shoot on sight! The experimental subject is out of control!"Dr. Aris shrieked hysterically into the wall intercom. His voice cracked and trembled violently. The man in the grey suit crawled frantically over the puddle of neon green liquid, leaving a trail of blood from his mouth on the wet concrete floor. He backed away from the platform, terrified to see his own creation turn against him.In the middle of the ruined room, a small voice broke the tension."Dad?"David coughed softly. Air filled his nearly crushed lungs once again. The blast of golden-white energy released by Arthur seconds ago had not hurt him at all. Instead, the remnants of that pure Eros energy seeped into his skin, stabilizing his heartbeat and knitting back his severely cracked ribs. He was still a mortal human, he still had no rings, but he was no longer on the suffocating brink of death.David opened his incredibly heav
The Illusion Cracks
"Dad! Dad, wake up!"The heavy thud of David's body hitting the steel floor of the laboratory shattered the suffocating silence. The echo of the impact completely broke Arthur's concentration. The electric blue aura surrounding his small body extinguished entirely. He was no longer hovering; his feet touched the floor again, trembling.The seven-year-old boy ran down the platform steps. He approached his father's motionless body. David's security uniform was soaked in blood. The man's face was turning a horrifying shade of blue, with the marks of strangulation clearly imprinted on his neck from Arthur's telekinetic force."Dad, please open your eyes," Arthur sobbed in panic. He dropped to his knees beside David. His tiny hands shook his father's limp shoulder.There was no response. David's chest barely moved.Arthur's crying exploded, echoing throughout the glass room. The illusion of grandeur that had been built inside his head for the past few w
Enduring the Blow of Sin
"Die! You evil monster! Die!"Arthur's scream sliced through the cold air inside the AgriGen underground laboratory. The seven-year-old boy stood with his right hand extended straight forward. Tears streamed down his cheeks, flushed red with pure anger. An electric blue aura churned violently around his small body, radiating waves of hatred that suppressed everything in the room.David Vexley hovered one meter above the concrete floor. His legs kicked empty air reflexively searching for a nonexistent foothold. The telekinetic grip from his own son bound his neck like a steel cable pulled by a winch. The air in his lungs was drained in seconds.The former King of the World clutched at his own neck. His right hand, smeared with dirty blood, instinctively reached for the tactical belt at his waist. His fingers found the cold handle of the backup knife he always hid there. He pulled the knife out. Its pitch-black blade reflected the neon green light from the plant t
The Child Who Judges His Father
"You always told me to hide this, Dad."A young boy's cold voice shattered the mechanical hum inside the giant laboratory. David Vexley slid down the steel wall his back had just slammed into. His body slumped downward slowly, leaving a thick smear of blood trailing against the freezing metal surface. His broken ribs groaned with sickening pain every time he forced air into his lungs.David coughed violently. Fresh blood spilled from his mouth once more, staining his already tattered and dusty security guard uniform. He lifted his face with immense effort. His eyes stared straight at his son in utter disbelief. The physical agony in his chest was absolutely nothing compared to the pain currently slicing through his sanity.In the center of the room, illuminated by the neon green glow radiating from thousands of mutant plant tubes, Arthur was no longer sitting in the medical chair. The seven-year-old boy stepped forward. His feet did not touch the concrete floor.
A Painful Reunion
"Come in, Mr. Miller. We have been waiting for you."Dr. Aris's voice sounded incredibly clear and calm from inside the room, cutting through the blaring emergency alarms still wailing in the back hallway.David Vexley gritted his teeth until his jaw felt stiff. He used his right shoulder to push the slightly open giant steel door until it opened wide. The heavy metal hinges creaked loudly, ushering David into the heart of the AgriGen underground facility.The room beyond was massive, equivalent in size to an airplane hangar. The air inside felt cold, smelling like a mixture of chlorine and freshly dug wet earth. David's gaze was immediately captivated by thousands of three-meter-tall giant glass tubes lined up neatly as far as the eye could see. Inside these liquid-filled tubes, strange, massive plants grew and spread. Their leaves and roots emitted a blinding neon-green glow, illuminating the entire facility in a sickening emerald hue.However, it was n
Corridor of Blood and Sweat
"They are coming from both sides. Stay behind my back, Bell," David hissed. His voice was almost drowned out beneath the deafening wail of the red alarms."I don't need your protection, Boss. Just watch your blind right side," Isabella shot back quickly. She raised her makeshift pistol high.The narrow corridor flickered wildly with emergency lights. Ten security guards in black combat gear charged forward from the front. They didn't raise firearms. Dr. Aris's orders were very clear. They carried high-voltage stun batons, intending to incapacitate David and drag him back to his cell alive."Keep your heads down. Surrender now," shouted the commander of the leading guards.David did not answer. The former king of the world lunged forward. His calf muscles tensed hard, launching his body right into the middle of the enemy formation.The first guard swung his stun baton straight at David's neck.David's eyes tracked the trajectory of the attack
