The Useless Son
“Everyone out.”Duke Rothschild's voice cut through the room.The doctors exchanged glances.“But, Your Grace—”“I said everyone.”His expression was cold enough to freeze the room.The physicians immediately packed their equipment and left.The servants followed.Even the maids who had been standing beside the curtains hurried out, closing the enormous doors behind them.Within seconds, only three people remained.Ambrose and his mother, his father.Ambrose lay quietly against the pillows. His head still felt strange.Not painful anymore. Just… different.It was difficult to explain. His thoughts seemed faster.Much faster.Before, he would have needed several seconds to process something complicated.Now, information seemed to arrange itself automatically in his mind.He looked at the duke, his father's breathing. The slight movement of his fingers.The tension around his eyeskept glancing at Ambrose's chest.He's worried. Ambrose immediately realized it.His father was worried.The
The Purge
"Someone took her." "Who?" Elena's lips trembled. "We never found out." Adrian stared at her. "But now she's at the estate." "Yes." "And she's been hunting me." Elena shook her head. "No." Adrian frowned. "What?" "She hasn't been hunting you." Elena looked directly into his eyes. "She's been trying to find you." Adrian went silent. "But the attacks—" "Weren't from her." "Then who?" Elena's face became pale. "Augustus." Lucian immediately shook his head. "Impossible." Elena turned toward him. "You've been wrong about him for twenty-two years." Lucian's expression hardened. "He's dead." "No." Elena whispered, "He never died." Adrian looked between them. "We already know that." Elena shook her head. "No." Her voice trembled. "You don't." Adrian frowned. "What don't I know?" Elena looked at Alexander. "Tell him." Alexander remained silent. "Tell him." Alexander finally looked at Adrian. "Augustus isn't the person controlling the Black Crown." A
The creator
Chapter — The CreatorDarkness swallowed the chamber.For three seconds, nobody breathed.Then—BOOM!A pulse of black energy exploded from the center of the room.“Everyone down!”Victor's voice barely reached them before the floor cracked.Elena grabbed the little girl and pulled her behind a fallen pillar. Julian dropped beside them, while Alexander raised both hands and summoned a shimmering barrier.The barrier lasted less than a second.CRACK!It shattered.Alexander staggered backward.“What the hell was that?”Nobody answered.Because Adrian was standing in the middle of the chamber.Alone.The golden light around his body was gone.His eyes were closed.The black mark on his palm had disappeared.And yet something about him had changed.The air around him felt different.Older.He slowly opened his eyes.They were no longer completely golden.A thin ring of black surrounded the pupils.Adrian looked around.“Where am I?”Elena stared at him.“Adrian?”He turned toward her.Fo
The Sovereign’s King
Cassian stood at the bottom of the stairs.Nobody moved. The man's eyes were completely black.Not dark but bloodshot.There was no trace of the whites of his eyes anymore. Adrian stared at him, his heart pounding.“Dad?”Cassian slowly raised his head and a smile appeared on his face.It was not Cassian's smile.It was too calm. Too empty.“The Sovereign has finally found its king.”The words echoed through the chamber.Elena immediately stepped forward. “Cassian!”His eyes shifted toward her.For a brief second, something flickered inside them.Recognition.Pain.Then it disappeared.“Stay back,” Victor warned.Elena ignored him.“That is my husband.”“No,” Alexander said quietly.Everyone looked at him.Alexander's expression had turned grim.“That is not Cassian anymore.”Adrian's blood ran cold.The voice inside his head suddenly whispered.He is mine.Adrian clenched his fists.Get out of my head.He was always meant to be the door.Cassian's lips curled upward.“You finally und
The Voice Inside Him
Adrian stood completely still.The child rested against his chest, but he barely noticed her weight.The voice inside his head was still there.We have been waiting for you.He closed his eyes.“Get out of my head.”Nobody spoke.Julian stepped closer.“Adrian?”Adrian opened his eyes.“I can hear it.”Seraphine's face tightened.“What is it saying?”Adrian hesitated.“It called me the Creator.”Alexander immediately stepped toward him.“Don't answer it.”Adrian looked at him.“Why?”“Because the Sovereign doesn't communicate unless it has established a complete neural connection.”Adrian's expression hardened.“So it has control of me?”“No.”Seraphine interrupted.“Not yet.”Adrian looked at her.“What does ‘not yet’ mean?”“It means you still have control over yourself.”She glanced at the symbol on his hand.“But the connection is growing.”Adrian looked down.The black mark pulsed beneath his skin.“What happens when it reaches my heart?”Seraphine's silence answered him.Julian
The Harvest
The walls began closing. Adrian pulled the child against his chest and looked around the corridor.“Which way?”Seraphine pointed ahead. “Keep moving. Do not stop.”They ran.Behind them, metal screamed as the Sovereign's walls shifted into place.Julian stayed beside Adrian, firing at the mechanical drones emerging from the ceiling.“There's too many!”“Keep shooting!”Victor moved behind them, covering their retreat.Lucas suddenly stopped.Adrian looked back.“Lucas!”Lucas was staring at the walls.“They're not following us.”Adrian frowned.“What?”“The machines.”Lucas pointed behind them.“They're ignoring everyone else.”Adrian's expression changed.“They're after the child.”A mechanical arm burst through the wall.Adrian jumped aside.The arm slammed into the floor.Julian fired repeatedly at its joints.“Run!”They continued down the corridor.Then the child began crying.Adrian looked down.“What's wrong?”The child's eyes were glowing.Seraphine suddenly stopped.“Put her
