Alera POV"Good gracious," a deep sigh I didn't even know i was holding unto, escaped my lips. Whoever these visitors were, they just saved me from unexplainable torture. I wondered who they were. Father never introduced me to any of his friends. He hid me away, like a plague.Immediately I entered the room, the air shift. It felt different from its usual smoky smell. It was thick, suffocating even. Two men dressed in a foreign uniform stood firmly behind a man who dressed in a foreign attire. He sat in the corner of the room. He was unusually huge, taking up the entire space. He didn't need to speak. The aura that oozed from him made my knees weak, even enough that I bowed my head subconsciously. It felt familiar yet I couldn't quite place it.His heavy gaze fell on me, "Is this your daughter, Alera?" "Y-Yes, Beta Uriah," Father replied, rubbing his pants restlessly."A virgin?" He asked further. "Yes, my Lord. She has known no man."My lips curved upwards, cheeks tinted as I
Chapter 63: First System Host: Draven Quill
Dennis arranged their luggage into the wardrobe, then he got to the last and most important box. He placed it down and opened it gently. He brought out the cables and a diary containing passwords and ideas he and Noah had come up with when they started the company. He put on the notebook they stored in software, plugged the cables and flash drives into it, and went through the links and test codes, checking the algorithms and Java intonations. He finally opened one small box; it contained a small eye flash ware they were yet to launch. It wasn’t yet fully completed. It still needed to be test-run for it to be used and tested. He and Noah wanted to finish test-running it before introducing it to their third partner, Mathew.A deep sigh escaped again. He quickly packed everything into the wardrobe after hearing footsteps from outside the corridor. He shut the wardrobe and adjusted his shirt. Knock, knock. He opened the door, and the nurses wheeled Kira on the patient wheelbed. They c
Chapter 63: The Birth Of Draven Quill
The nurses immediately rushed outside with a patient stretch wheel, helping Kira rest her back on the wheelchair as they wheeled her into the labor emergency center. She held her husband’s hands tight, fear creeping into her skin. “Don’t worry, okay? I will be outside, waiting.” Dennis leaned forward and kissed her head. “I trust you, baby; I know you can do it. And remember I love you and our baby coming on the way.”“I love you too,” she whispered, sweating profusely, eyes slowly closing from fatigue. Dennis stood outside, pacing from the door to the end of the waiting room. He had never felt this level of nervousness in his entire life. Not when he wanted to send all documents to a cyber web he tested for years. Not when they came home to find their houses scattered and raided. A tear fell on his cheeks as he silently whispered a prayer to whatever supernatural being was up there. He had never been the type to believe in all those religious slanders and what’s not. But right now
Chapter 62: 26 years ago: Draven Quill Identity
Vincent Harland’s Residence. After the call with Toria, Vincent realized this could be by far the greatest rivalry war they are about to experience. Over the years, their empire had experienced industry war and rivalry with new age young billionaire who dared them. But it never amounted to this amount of pressure this Quill guy is putting on them. He sat in his living room, throwing dart arrows across it; the dart target board hung on the wall opposite him. The whole Quill situation had him tossing on the bed at night, made his appetite for food vanish, and even made his stomach get constipated twice. He was scared even though admitting it would make a forty-eight-year-old man who has controlled a thousand workers, and built an empire, look like a weakling. An ordinary twenty-something-year-old guy. He couldn’t quite place it; maybe it was because the guy was strategic or because there was no weakness they could find on it. No stain even. A family background could have h
Chapter 61: Harland Empire Vs Quill Investment
Toria went back to another page that showed Quill investment. She leaned deeper into the leather chair, her fingers tightening around the iPad until her knuckles turned pale, eyes widened. The bright screen reflected against her face, but the calm expression she usually carried in board meetings had completely vanished, now replaced with irritation, bruised pride, welling anger, and something even uglier that she hated admitting to herself.Jealousy. A bitter, burning one. Her eyes dragged slowly over another page of information attached to Quil Investment’s recent expansion reports. The numbers alone were enough to make her stomach twist painfully. In less than three years, Draven had managed to build an investment company that was swallowing half the city’s financial attention like wildfire spreading through dry grass.And the worst part is most of the investors funding his empire used to belong to them.Her jaw clenched, and her fist tightened so hard, her palm bruised. She enlarg
Chapter 60: Dogging On Draven Quinn
Tom entered his black Ferrari car. “Where to, sir?” The driver requested. “Take me to Don; that little bastard has been ignoring my calls all week.” Tom grunted.The driver ignited the engine; it roared out. He drove out of the compound and drove into the city. He drove past the blinging lights in the city, driving uptown North. Soon they passed by the streetlights and busy road and entered into a dark road; old, tall buildings loomed over on both sides of the road, and the air felt eerie and dangerous. The drive swiveled into an old park; old trucks were packed at the front. On the outside it looked deserted and abandoned, but it was the den of Don and his gang members. The driver parked at the front, Tom got down from the car, sunglasses covered his face, and a silver-handled walking stick was in his hands. The driver tailed behind him. When they got to the door, the driver pressed the open buzzer. The iron gate creaked open, and the light at the front of the cave opened. Two arm
