Chapter 182
“Vareth kai. Sol en tharan.”The phrase was said to belong to one man alone.The legendary warrior who appeared when ordinary armies failed.The man whose missions were sealed, whose identity remained a mystery, and whose presence could turn the course of a war before the enemy understood what had happened.The god of War.John's lips moved soundlessly. “It definitely can’t be…”Felix shook his head, taking another step backward. “No. That's not possible.”John stared at Chay.The man they had trapped.The man they had drugged.The man they had mocked, threatened, and prepared to execute.The man they had spent months trying to find allies to oppose.The God of War?His mind raced backward through every encounter he had ever had with Chay.He remembered the meetings. The confrontations. The warnings he dismissed as arrogance. The calm, infuriating confidence that had made him feel as though he was always missing something.He remembered Commander Bryce.He remembered General Luka.

John staggered backward, he almost fell. Felix quickly held on to the pole closest to him to balance himself. Suddenly, John screamed at Felix. “Push it!” Felix blinked. “What?”“The button! Push it now!”Felix looked at the remote in his hands and with trembling hands, he immediately pressed it.*click*John’s jaws tightened, his lips preparing to to stretch into a smile while he watches the restraint around Chay’s neck tighten from the push of the button. But…Nothing happened.Felix’s brows drew together. He pressed it again.The collar around Chay's neck remained unchanged.“What’s the problem??!” John screamed. “Press the fucking button!”Felix hammered the button with his thumb.But nothing happened still.“It's not working!”“What?! Then push it again you cunt!”“I am!”The floor suddenly lurched beneath them.Felix stumbled sideways and caught the edge of the table. The remaining documents scattered across the floor. John quickly grabbed the table to steady himself.His e

Corey had stepped forward and fallen on his knees before Chay, Not casually, and surely not as a man who had stumbled or been forced down.He lowered himself deliberately, placed both knees on the floor, and bowed his head toward the man locked inside the cage.John stared.Felix's mouth fell open.Corey, the man they had recruited with promises of wealth and protection, the man who had allegedly drugged his own Master and delivered him into their hands, was kneeling before Chay as though standing in his presence were an honor he had to earn.He spoke one final time in the strange language. “Aren val kai. Thalen mor, Chay.”The words were quiet, but every syllable carried the weight of a vow.It meant, “You know I would never betray you, not even until my last breath.”Chay looked down at him.For a moment, the smile disappeared from his face. Something warmer replaced it. recognition between two men who had survived too much together to need explanations.Then Chay gave the slight

“Wait!”The shout tore through the room.Felix froze.His thumb was hovering over the button on the remote, so close that the slightest movement would activate the mechanism around Chay's neck. He turned sharply toward the cage, his expression twisted with irritation.John on the other hand, stopped mid-step.For a second, no one said anything. Then John's brows drew together, his head tilting as a slow, disbelieving chuckle escaped him.“Did you hear that, Felix?”Felix lowered his hand slightly. “I heard him.”John turned back toward Chay. “The mighty Chay Morgan wants to beg now?”He laughed.It began as a low chuckle before swelling into an ugly burst of amusement. Felix immediately joined him, shaking his head as though Chay had just delivered the finest joke he had heard in years.But Chay said nothing. He just watched. His gaze then shifted to Corey.Corey stood a short distance behind the two men, his face unreadable. He had not moved since Chay shouted. He simply watched,

But Corey didn’t answer. He could hear… clearly. But ignored.Chay swallowed, trying to soothe the pain he felt in his heart. And the memory returned with cruel clarity; Corey placing his lemon tea next to him in the study. His familiar voices His quiet praises that night. The trust between them, built through years of danger, decisions, and battles that neither of them needed to explain to each other. Corey bringing him lemon tea on a late work night was routine. How was he supposed to know that that particular night was different? How could he have known that Corey had his own plans? Chay sighed. ‘Could this be some misunderstanding?’ Chay still couldn’t believe that Corey would do this. ‘This has to be a mistake or a dream or something…’ he thought to himself, staring at Corey. Chay just couldn’t accept this reality.It was absurd. It was impossible. Despite him remembering precisely the weakness he felt after drinking the tea… the weakness he still felt even right now
Chapter 177
Chay stared at him.“You helped him cover up the murder of my parents.”Felix gave an indifferent shrug.“I helped prevent an old problem from becoming a new one.”“A problem?”Chay's voice rose.“My parents were human beings!”The words tore through the room.For the first time since John's confession, Chay's composure fractured completely. He surged against the restraints, his chains snapping taut with a violent metallic crash. The cage shuddered, and pain shot through his wrists as the locks held him in place.“Two people died!” he shouted. “A mother and a father! And you reduced them to a problem you needed to manage?”Felix took a cautious step back.John, however, looked delighted.“There he is,” he murmured. “I was beginning to wonder whether you had any feelings at all.”Chay pulled again.The metal groaned.His breathing came in harsh bursts, and for a moment the only thing he could hear was the blood rushing in his ears. He imagined his father's final moments. His mother's
