But Jaden’s eyes suddenly sharpened again—dark and unblinking.

“Then I’ll deal with Elder Dusk,” he said coldly. “And after that… the Thornfell family is next.”

With a single wave of his hands a sharp gust of energy swept through the area like an invisible sword smashing through the thugs killing them in an instant as their blood plastered everywhere. Paul was the only one spared-or at least for now.

His smirked vanished as blood ran through his face.

“This is all a misunderstanding please don't kill me, I'll do whatever you want I'll leave this place and never return. Please forgive me.” He pleaded as he bowed his head towards Jaden's feet.

“Forgiveness? The King of War shows no mercy to anyone that disrespects him!”

“The…are you the king of war?” Paul stammered, he'd heard stories of the legendary king of war who stopped the war and the savior of Karethwyn.

“No you're bluffing, you can't be the…”

Before he could finish his statement with a single swipe Jaden made his head explode.

The soldiers were still working as instructed.

Suddenly one of them soldiers walked to Jaden. “My king, as you instructed a piece of her ashes”

He handed over a golden Urn, it was wrapped at the top with a piece of red clothing that seemed to be stained with decayed blood.

“Thank you.” Jaden said as he took the Urn. The piece of cloth was the cloth his mother wore before she died that brutal way.

He placed it on the ground and wrapped it with a blanket before carrying it up and giving it to the man.

“Let's go pay Agatha a visit, today's her son's celebration. I'll make sure Agatha eats this ashes!”

The man followed Jaden as they entered into one of the cars and zoomed off.

–The White's prestigious Hotel–

The White's hotel was among the top three most expensive hotels in Ravenmoor, only one percent of the one percent could afford such a place.

Jaden’s car arrived at the entrance. He stepped out taking a view at the hotel, he clearly remembered this place. This used to be where his mother's family house was, before Agatha demolished it and built her hotel on the land. Not only did she take his mother's life, she also took her home.

“My king, I can take care of these people you don't need to step in.” The man escorting Jaden said. He's Drax, a powerful warrior personally trained by Jaden, he alone could single-handedly kill hundred men.

Jaden replied. “No, go back to check on the grave, I'll handle this myself.” He said as he took the Urn from him.

He strode toward the banquet hall. Inside, the wealthy mingled beneath golden chandeliers, and elegantly dressed women filled the room. It was truly a venue for elites and prestigious families.

All eyes turned as Jaden entered. Tall. Striking. Dangerous.

“Who is that?”

“He looks powerful… and loaded.”

“He’s mine tonight,” one woman whispered, licking her lips. “You can tell he knows how to handle a woman.”

But Jaden ignored them all. He walked straight to an empty table, slammed the urn down with a loud thud, and sat. He poured himself a glass of red wine, calm as ever.

“He’s so cool,” a girl sighed. “I’ve never seen anyone like him in Ravenmoor.”

“My prince charming,” another whispered dreamily.

Security was quick to respond. Their leader, Xavier, approached with a frown.

“Sir, this is a private event,” he said firmly. “Invitation only.”

Jaden didn’t respond. Didn’t even glance at him.

“I said, everyone needs an invitation and a gift to be allowed in. You barge in here, drink our wine like this is your father’s lounge, and you think that’s fine?”

Xavier pointed at the wrapped item on the table. “And what’s that? We need to inspect it.”

He reached for it.

Jaden grabbed his wrist and crushed it with a single squeeze.

“You’re not worthy to touch that,” he said coldly.

“Aaagh! My hand—!”

    Selena stood rooted to the spot, her gaze sweeping over the line of men in expensive suits, each waiting to sign their names and pour money into her project. The surrealism of the moment hit her hard. She almost questioned if she’d finally lost it and drifted into some too-perfect dream.On the other side of the room, Elias’s composure was hanging by a thread. His jaw clenched so tightly it looked like it might crack, and a vein throbbed visibly at his temple. He wasn’t just angry—he was seconds away from an aneurysm.Selena took a slow, measured breath, willing her heartbeat to steady. When she finally moved, it was with deliberate confidence, heels clicking against the polished floor as she approached the table to oversee the contracts. Her fingers skimmed over each page, her signature neat and firm, sealing the deals one after another.By the time the last pen was set down, she had secured seven hundred million. Just like that, Rift Corporation’s looming financial disaster had evap

    As soon as they stepped into the office, several well-dressed men in suits moved quickly toward them, each wearing expressions of respect and urgency.“Mr. Rift. Ms. Verrick.” Their greetings came in unison, voices carrying the weight of people used to being greeted, not the other way around.Selena froze for half a second, her mind blank. She wasn’t used to men of this caliber addressing her with such deference. Almost instinctively, she nodded, murmuring polite responses she didn’t even register.Jaden, however, remained composed, his expression cool, almost bored. He didn’t rush to respond, only offering the faintest nod and a low hum of acknowledgment, as if their respect was nothing out of the ordinary.If his indifference bothered them, they didn’t show it. In fact, they leaned in closer, almost vying for his attention. Their smiles were practiced, but their eagerness was obvious.From the corner, Elias and his family stood frozen, their eyes darting between the men and Jaden. T

    Selena’s gaze stayed fixed on the crumpled contract lying at her feet. Her teeth worried at her bottom lip, a nervous habit she hated but couldn’t stop. The room felt smaller, the air heavier, as if the walls themselves were closing in on her indecision.If she refused to sign, the Greyfield project would grind to a halt. No money meant Rift Corporation would bleed out until it collapsed, and everything she’d built would be scattered to the wind.If she signed, the Verrick family’s claws would sink in deep. They’d strip the profits bare, fatten themselves off her labor, and leave her with scraps — a glorified servant to their greed.She didn’t notice Jaden watching her until his voice cut through the tension, low and mocking."Heh. Just like I said. You people really are a pack of dogs. The moment one is weak, the rest start tearing into it. Don’t agree to their terms, dear."Her head turned sharply toward him, eyes searching his face for an answer he wasn’t supposed to give so easily

    Elizabeth’s voice cut in, her tone dripping with condescension. “Exactly! We’re trying to help you, and you’re acting like we’re the enemy. Don’t be so ungrateful.”Selena’s lips parted, but no words came out. Their smug faces and self-assured tone left her momentarily speechless.The worst part? They weren’t entirely wrong.Her knuckles tightened around the edge of her desk. Deep down, she couldn’t deny the brutal truth — the Rift Corporation’s finances were in a chokehold. This project was bleeding them dry, and every day without an investor was another nail in the coffin.And it wasn’t just any project. This was one of the city’s most high-profile development ventures. If it stalled, or worse, collapsed, the fallout would be catastrophic. Contracts would be broken. Penalties would crush them. Their reputation would take a blow they couldn’t recover from.But even knowing all of that, Selena’s pulse spiked with defiance. The Verrick terms were absurd — not an offer, but an execution

    Pulling out a chair with deliberate weight, Elias lowered himself into it like he owned the place. The scrape of the legs against the marble floor cut through the quiet room. Behind him, Talon, Elisabeth, and two broad-shouldered bodyguards stood in rigid formation, hands clasped neatly behind their backs, their presence more threat than formality.A slow, knowing smile curved Elias’s lips, his gaze never leaving Selena."Why else would I be here," he said, voice dripping with casual arrogance, "if not to talk business with you? From what I hear, Rift Corporation is running on fumes. Desperate for investors, aren’t you?"Selena’s brows drew together. She didn’t like the way he said it — like her struggles were an open secret for him to toy with."You’re really here to invest in our company?" she asked, her tone flat but edged with doubt.Elias chuckled, the sound low and rich, leaning back like he was settling in for a game. "Of course. Why else would I come knocking?"Her eyes narrow

    The shrill ring of the office landline broke the stillness. Selena glanced at it briefly, then picked up. “Hello?”The crisp, professional voice of the front desk receptionist came through the line. “President Verrick, there’s an Elias here asking to see you.”Her brows knitted instantly. Elias? The name pulled at an old thread she didn’t want to touch. Then it hit—her uncle. What the hell was he doing here?A flash of surprise crossed her features before hardening into ice. Memories she’d buried clawed their way back up—her family’s exile from the Verrick name, the public severing of ties, the cold stares from relatives who had once called her their own, the public humiliation.Her tone dropped several degrees. “I don’t want to see him.”She was about to hang up when the receptionist’s urgent voice stopped her. “He… asked me to tell you he’s here to invest in the company. He wants to know if you’re interested now.”Selena froze. Invest?A storm churned behind her eyes. From a persona
