Jaden gritted his teeth, the wind slicing across his face as Drax swerved through traffic like a man possessed. The engine of their matte black charger roared, its tires screeching against the asphalt as it tore down the highway.

"Do you know the place?" Jaden asked, eyes locked ahead like a hawk tracking its prey.

"I can’t wait that long," Jaden said coldly. "Drive faster, I need to get there in five minutes, else I'll kill you!"

"Yes, Boss!"

Jaden’s fists clenched in his lap. His voice was low but filled with rage. "If anything happens to Julie or Hannah… I swear, I’ll burn that place to the ground."

The car bolted forward, weaving between vehicles, engines growling. Drax—ex-military, the best wheelman Jaden knew—handled it like a missile locked on target.

    “How dare you interrupt this auction?! Do you have a death wish?” the host bellowed from the stage, veins bulging at his temple as he stared down the lone man who had just stepped into their underground nightmare.Jaden didn’t even glance at him. His boots echoed across the cold marble floor as he walked straight toward Hannah, her wrists bound and her eyes wide with disbelief.“Jaden…” Her voice cracked as the ropes fell away from her bruised skin. The moment she was free, she threw herself into his arms. “Jaden, you really came…” Her body trembled against his chest, tears slipping down her cheeks.He wrapped an arm around her, steady and warm. “It’s okay. You’re safe now.”“But… Julie… they have Julie,” she gasped, pulling back, panicked.“She’s safe,” Jaden said calmly, brushing a strand of hair from her face. “Already taken care of.”She breathed out in relief, eyes closing as tears continued to fall.“You bastard!

The Blake family was one of the Seven Pillars of the city. Arrogant. Dangerous. Feared. And Andrew? He never lost a bid. Ever.Tonight was no different.Hands buried casually in his pockets, Andrew smirked as he stood from his seat, eyes gleaming with triumph. “One billion,” he said coolly. “And I take her home tonight.”The entire hall fell silent.Mouths hung open.“He’s serious?”“No one’s beating that…”“Fucking hell, it’s Blake…”Hannah’s heart sank. Her knees wobbled. Her lips trembled as she closed her eyes. Jadden… please... where are you?The host cleared his throat quickly, adjusting his collar as he forced a smile. “V-Very well then. Sold! One billion to Mr. Blake! She’s all yours, sir.”Andrew walked toward the stage with a casual arrogance only a man like him could wear. He ascended slowly, like a

    Hannah screamed as the guards dragged her into the dark chamber, her fists pounding against their backs to no avail.“Let me go! Please—!” she shrieked.“Stop being stubborn if you don’t wanna get hurt,” one of the men muttered coldly, hoisting her higher over his shoulder.They stepped into a dimly lit, cavernous room. The air was thick with cigar smoke and the scent of expensive cologne. Armed guards stood like statues at every corner. Spotlights illuminated the grand stage at the center of the hall, fitted with a tall silver pole gleaming under the lights.This was no ordinary room—it was the auction chamber.They threw her down at the foot of the stage like a sack. Her wrists were yanked and tied tightly behind the pole, forcing her to stand upright. She struggled, eyes wild with terror, her red silk dress clinging to her trembling frame.“Let me go!” she cried, the sound of her voice cracking.One of the guards grinned wickedly. “Easy, little beauty. You’re about to make us milli

    Rafael trembled where he sat, surrounded by rubble and the broken remains of his once-proud throne. Blood leaked from his nose, his lip was split, and one eye was already swelling shut. Jaden stood still, chest heaving, eyes calm. Unforgiving.Rafael’s pride shattered like glass. He dropped to his knees, his voice cracking as he kowtowed before Jaden’s boots.“Please—please don’t kill me! I’ll give you anything. Money, offshore accounts, weapons, power—just… just spare me!”Jaden looked down at him, unmoved. “I don’t forgive anyone who tries to harm my family.”Rafael’s face twisted. He pressed his forehead to the floor again, but his right hand was slowly, carefully moving—sneaking toward his inner coat pocket.Jaden’s eyes narrowed slightly.Suddenly, Rafael leapt to his feet with surprising speed, holding something in his hand.Click.He held up a live grenade, thumb hovering over the pin.“HA! You fucker! You really thought you had me cornered?” he screamed, grinning manically. “

    Jaden stood alone in the center of the room, his back straight, eyes burning like coals. All around him, Rafael’s men formed a loose circle, fingers twitching over their triggers, their nerves stretched thin.The silence was unbearable. The air itself felt heavy, thick with tension. The sound of someone breathing too hard, another man swallowing his fear—it all rang loud in the stillness.Rafael sat on his throne of leather and gold, leaning forward with a wicked grin.“Well?” he said, his voice oily. “Shoot him!”No one moved. They were all too scared after witnessing Jaden brutally killed two men with one hit."This guy is not human."Jaden tilted his head slightly, his cold gaze sweeping across the room like a blade. He took one step to the side, then another. He started to circle slowly—like a lion, calm, unhurried, choosing which gazelle to kill first.One of the men, young and trembling, couldn’t take the pressure. His hands were slick with sweat. “Shoot him already!” he barked,
