The voice of Lady Megan Stevens was laced bewilderment and curiosity as she walked in to stop Lord George Lucas from kneeling.

"Lord George, are you drunk or something?"

"What do you mean you came to apologize to Melissa?!"

"You should be more concerned about your ball-less son!"

"You should be taking revenge on her and her stupid husband, Max!"

Her voice was laced with venom and hatred as she spoke.

Lord George Lucas stared at her and shook his head in disappointment.

'Clearly, she doesn't know who her son-in-law is yet.'

"Lady Megan, you are yet to drink from the wrath of the great one, I get why you wouldn't understand why I'm doing this."

Lord George Lucas whispered into the ears of Lady Megan, his heart thumping loudly as his gaze fixated on Max Xanderson.

"Melissa I'm kneeling here today and publicly asking that you forgive my family, especially my son Arnold for everything he has done to you."

As Lord George Lucas pleaded, Martins Lucas, his second son ran in and joined his dad to plead for mercy on their family.

"Melissa, please forgive my brother and don't order total obliteration of our family, please."

Martin Lucas' voice was laced with sorrows, he too was bandaged all over his head.

Melissa Stevens stared at Lord George Lucas and his son, her jaw dropped in surprise.

"Lord George…what are you talking about?"

"I can't order the obliteration of the influential Lucas family…how can I even do that?"

Melissa asked as she stared at him and his son in bewilderment.

Sophia Stevens, Chloe Maxwell, Lady Megan Stevens, Eunice Stevens and the others were beyond perplexed.

"Lord George Lucas had even gone ahead to bring his own media team to cover him kneeling and begging for mercy from Melissa."

Eunice Stevens' voice was barely above whispers as he gazed upon Melissa with jealousy.

"Melissa Stevens, we are sorry for everything."

"To make up for the damages my stupid son Arnold had done, allow me to present you the keys to the latest Lucas mansion."

"This mansion is worth 3 billion dollars and here are the documents."

Lord George Lucas said as he signalled one of his henchmen dressed in a black suit and black shades, he came immediately and presented the suitcase to Melissa.

"That's not all, we have also decided to sign an investment contract with you worth $1,000,000,000 and this would be increased to any amount you request for in the future."

"What is going on here?!"

"I ask again, Lord George, is this a joke?!"

"How can you be giving gifts worth billions of dollars to someone whose husband crushed the balls of your second son?!"

Lady Megan Stevens vented in anger, her teeth gritting.

She was only concerned that Melissa Stevens was getting all these gifts and attention.

Lord George Lucas ignored her ranting and clapped twice and the door was opened immediately as his messenger brought in gifts of different caliber and laid it on Melissa's feet who was now beginning to feel embarrassed from the whole thing.

"This is a Neom diamond, it's worth over $900,000,000."

"This is a Tunisian artefact from the national museum, I bought it for $1,000,000, you can have it."

The situation was intense as Lord George Lucas and his son continued listing and presenting Melissa Stevens with gifts beyond everyone's imagination.

"Melissa Stevens feel free to visit the Orb anything you want, here is a VIP access key, you are part of our family from now on."

"And before I forget, here is the key to a Bugatti Mistral and it's all yours."

Melissa Stevens was stunned to her bone marrow, she didn't have a word for Lord George Lucas.

"Ok…ay."

Melissa Stevens managed to blurt, her voice and facial expressions showing that she was even more confused than the rest of the people in the room.

"Melissa Stevens, thanks for accepting our gifts and please don't hurt our family, we plead with you."

With that said, Lord George Lucas signalled his people and he was wheeled out and in a matter of minutes everyone was gathered around Melissa asking her questions.

"What did you do to the Lucas family?"

"Why is he saying you shouldn't order the obliteration of his family?"

"Why is he so afraid of…"

"Silence!!!"

The voice of Lady Megan Stevens roared through the voyeur as she demanded an audience.

Walking slowly she stared at the gifts and immediately took the Neom diamond and put it in her purse.

"As your grandmother, I think it's best for you that I hold onto this diamond…you know for safekeeping."

Her voice was laced with determination as she stared lecherously at Max Xanderson.

"What!"

"Wait! Grandma, these gifts were clearly given to my daughter, you can't seize them!"

Mrs Sophia Stevens immediately lashed out, she had been holding it up, but this time she wanted to let Lady Megan Stevens get what she deserved.

Where are you guys?!”Max Xanderson immediately called out as he stared into the dark living room.“General Cobra Claw…what do we do now?”Jack Oniels asked as he squatted by the side of General Cobra Claw.“Jack Oniels, I really don't know…they were right here when we left and I clearly recall telling Melissa to lock those doors!”“What sorcery is this?!”Max Xanderson asked as he kicked the window next to him and suddenly a well-hidden piece of paper fell off and dropped to the ground.Jack Oniels immediately picked up the paper and gave it to Max Xanderson, the grand general Cobra Claw.Max Xanderson slowly gazed at the paper as he voiced out s

    Max Xanderson and Jack Oniels slowly took a deep breath and just as they turned to look at the man behind them and to their greatest surprise, he was now standing by the cliff edge.The wind from the trees was still making the whole place spooky and scary.Max Xanderson immediately walked closer to the man who was now by the valley edge, “What are you doing by that valley edge?!”“Do you really want to kill yourself?”Max Xanderson asked as he stared at the man who was now threatening to jump off the cliff.“What do you think you are trying to do?!”Jack Oniels immediately asked as he stepped closer to Max Xanderson who was almost closer to the man.“I can't take it anymore, Max Xanderson and Jack Oniels!”“I told you she will be back and I don't want to be another unlucky person added to her kill list!”“Max Xanderson and Jack Oniels, you really don't understand who is it you both are messing with…I can't deal with her!”The man's voice was laced with a mixture of confusion, trepidat

    The dark figure stopped immediately and seemed to grow, its shadow stretching along the walls, twisting and writhing as if alive. The perimeter felt like it was closing in, the air heavy with an unnatural chill.Max Xanderson held his ground, his jaw set and his fists clenched at his sides.Beside him, Jack Oniels’ smirk faltered for the briefest moment before returning with a defiant edge.The man behind them, still kneeling on the ground, clutched at his head and rocked back and forth.“You don’t understand,” he whispered hoarsely. “You’ve brought this on yourselves. She’ll kill us all.”“Shut up,” Jack Oniels snapped, throwing a glare over his shoulder. “You’re not helping.”Max Xanderson ignored them both, his eyes locked on the figure. “You’re good at theatrics,” he said, his voice steady despite the palpable tension. “But I’ve faced monsters before, and you’re no different.”The figure tilted its head, as if considering his words.When it spoke, its voice was layered, as thoug

    Max Xanderson and Jack Oniels stared at the dark shadow as it began to grow and shifting into something beyond scary.Jack Oniels immediately was taken aback, he knew he wasn't supposed to be scared as he and Max Xanderson, the Grand General Cobra had fought most possibly demons and stood a chance.But as the dark figure shape shifted, Jack Oniels immediately swallowed a hard lump.Max Xanderson, the Grand General Cobra Claw, kept his gaze fixed on the dark, shifting form before them.Max Xanderson's jaws was set, and his hands were clenched into fists at his sides.The figure was no longer just a shadow; it was becoming something far more tangible and terrifying, more like something you be seeing in a scary night movie.Tendrils of darkness shot out immediately and coiled like living serpents, and a pair of glowing red eyes began to pierce through its body and tails.Jack Oniels took a step back, his usual now a bit faltering.He immediately swallowed hard, the lump in his throat a t

    The man opened his mouth to respond, but the eerie sound suddenly grew louder, drowning out his words. He froze immediately, his face draining of color as he stared at the shadows. “She’s here,” he whispered, his voice barely audible. “She’s coming.”Max Xanderson immediately stepped forward, his presence commanding and laced with authority States and determination.“Let her come,” he said, his voice low and dangerous. “We’ll be ready.”Jack Oniels immediately smirked, his confidence returning. “Yeah,” he said, cracking his knuckles. “Bring it on.”The man stared at them, his fear now mixed with disbelief. “Max Xanderson and Jack Oniels, you both don’t understand,” he said, his voice trembling. “You can’t fight her. You can’t win.”“Maybe not,” Max Xanderson said, his eyes cold and unyielding. “But we’ll go down fighting.”The haunting sound reached its highest height, and the shadows around the perimeter immediately seemed to shift and twist, as if something—or someone—was about
