At that moment, seeing Damien coming even more closer Victoria's brother kept dragging his body backward using his elbows and heels, but there was nowhere else to go—his back slammed into the cold tiled wall with a dull thud. He froze.

His palms were sweating, his breath shallow, his heart racing so loud he could barely hear his own voice anymore. But still, he forced words out, clinging to the only weapon he had left—fear. Not Demian’s fear, but the kind others had for his family.

“D–Don’t forget who I am!” he stammered, eyes wide, fingers twitching. “Don’t forget who my father is! My family... our name... you lay even a single finger on me, and this whole city will burn. Do you hear me? Everyone will pay if anything happens to me!”

At that moment He looked around the room, hoping someone anyone would step in. But his men were gone. Dead. Silenced.

And Victoria, she had sunk back into the nearest chair, her knees trembling, her mouth parted in disbelief. The fire in her eyes from ear

    Shadow Knights seated before the Royal Family were not just ordinary men.They were well-trained warriors, each one of them skilled in so many aspects of life—combat, strategy, assassination, warfare, even the unseen arts that most in the kingdom and the Country only whispered about.It was said that each of them was stronger than five... no, even seven War Kings combined. They were the kind of men who didn’t just fight battles, they ended them.And if... if all seven of them were to stand together, to fight side by side, their power would be unstoppable. Together, they stood a greater chance to achieve something truly remarkable, something that could shift the balance of the world.Then the man on the right throne continued speaking, his voice deep, heavy with meaning.“The Royal Family has made a decision,” he declared. “A threat... a threat that has been looming for many years, one that has grown quietly, hiding beneath the surface... is growing into something far worse.”His eyes

    Not all of them looked rough or scary, but each of them carried an air of strength.Four of them looked rugged, their bodies broad and tough, some with visible scars on their faces and arms marks that showed they had seen many battles and survived them. Their eyes were cold, their faces set like stone.But the other three men stood out differently. They were handsome, well-groomed, dressed sharply in royal garb that hugged their fit bodies perfectly. Their faces were calm, clean of scars, but the sharpness in their eyes showed they were not ordinary either. Their kind of strength wasn’t in brute force, but in intelligence, skills, and cunning.The room was quiet. The Royal Court didn’t summon men like these unless something serious had happened.The seven men sat proudly, waiting, their backs straight, their eyes fixed ahead on the Royal Families.The tension was growing. The air felt heavy, and it was clear whatever was about to be said, whatever mission or judgment was about to be p

    Deborah kept her head down, her hands squeezing together in her lap.Uncle Ben continued, his voice even sharper, “If you like, go ahead and start trouble. Go and start throwing accusations around. But let me tell you now, don’t put that on Damien’s head. That boy is the same person who saved us earlier today.”He paused for a second, his chest heaving with breath, his eyes still locked on her. “I don’t want to experience what I went through today ever again, not because of your stubbornness.”Deborah said nothing, still staring at the floor.Uncle Bernard shook his head and added coldly, “If you want to look for trouble, do it on your own. I won’t follow you, and I won’t beg anybody to help you either. You’ll be on your own.”Then he took a sit and sat back slowly, still watching her, making sure she understood he meant every single word.At that moment, Deborah raised her hand slightly, her voice low and careful. “I’ve heard what everyone said,” she muttered. “It was just a suggesti

    At that moment, Jessica just stood there, her hand still holding the phone, but her mind was far gone. She couldn’t speak, she couldn’t move. Her mouth stayed open slightly, her eyes fixed on nothing in particular. She was completely shocked, to the bone. She wasn’t expecting what she just heard. Not even in her wildest thoughts.Her father, who had been watching her closely, noticed how stiff she became. He could see the fear written all over her face, the way her hands were shaking, the way her chest was rising and falling fast, like she couldn’t catch her breath.“Jessica,” her father called gently. “What is it? What’s going on? Who called you? We heard Victoria’s name. What is it? Is Victoria okay?”Hearing her father words Jessica didn’t answer. She just shook her head slowly, her eyes still wide, like she was still trying to understand what she just heard.“Is she sick or something?” her father asked again, his voice a little louder, more worried now.Jessica shook her head agai

    Still Deborah kept her head low, her fingers shaking lightly as she held her hands together. She couldn’t look at him.“You only saw him as a low person,” Uncle Bernard continued, his voice rising. “And now look! Look at what has happened! You caused this, and it’s not just your loss, it’s the family’s loss. We will all feel it. We will all suffer because of you.”Jessica’s face was still tight. She looked at her mother with a kind of pain she didn’t know how to express. Her jaw moved like she wanted to speak, but she was just too angry to form the right words.Deborah swallowed hard, then her voice came out, low and weak. “I’m sorry,” she said quietly. “It was Victoria... she was the one always lighting my fire. Even when I wanted to calm down, she would come again, whisper things to me, and I... I let her.”Her voice cracked, and she wiped her face with her hand. “I’m sorry.”Jessica let out a small, bitter laugh, shaking her head. “Sorry? Now you’re sorry?”Deborah didn’t say anyth

    After waiting for a while, then at that moment, the sharpness in Jessica’s voice cut through the heavy air in the room like a blade. Both Uncle Bernard and Deborah turned their eyes slowly towards her, as if they were only just realizing she was still there with them.Jessica’s face was serious. Her hands were tightly clenched on her lap, her brows slightly furrowed. She was breathing fast, trying to hold herself together, but her voice carried both frustration and a quiet pain.“Are we all just going to sit here,” she continued, her voice trembling, “and pretend as if nothing happened? Are we just going to act like what we saw Damien do in that warehouse was some kind of trick?!” She turned directly to her mother, her eyes sharp. “Mom, are you still going to pretend that Damien is just ordinary? That he’s worthless?”Hearing her daughter words Deborah looked away immediately, unable to hold Jessica’s gaze. She didn’t say a word, but the shame was written all over her face. She wante
