"Mother," I opened my eyes. Everything around me is a haze. I gazed at the candlelight. It was wobbling from side to side. I noticed a woman seated near me, but everything was fuzzy. I heard a voice unexpectedly. It was a woman's voice, echoing in my ear. She was singing a low-toned lullaby. "Mother, is it you?" I heard my name, "Maxilin, I am here." "Mother," I said with a tremble in my voice. I have no idea what's wrong with me. I reached out cautiously to touch her, but she was out of my reach. "Where are you, mother?" "Oh, my beloved, try to hold me, come here, " "Mother," Maxilin tried to stand up, but he was too weak. Maxi narrowed his eyes in an effort to see her face clearly, but he couldn't because everything was fuzzy. A woman in a white outfit moved in front of his sight. Maxi took a few steps forward while still gripping the chair. "Mother, don't leave," he murmured, dizzily. As he said, he saw in his fuzzy vision that someone had opened the door. "Mother, please don't leave me," Maxilin pleaded. He let go of the chair's hold and dashed behind her. "Mother, don't leave me. Wait." In his frail state, he shouted and followed her. "Huf". In the middle of his path, he stopped. "Mother, you've left me here alone," "Maxi," he heard the voice unexpectedly. Maxi glanced up and looked around. It's all clear now, but he's stuck in the midst of the woods. He gazed up at the sky. A giant moon was staring at him, and a horde of deadly, voracious creatures were roaring around him. "Son," someone touched his shoulder, he looked back, saw a terrifying creature standing in front of him. "Hello, dear."

"A man, a creature of the wild... An animal that can't be tamed, an entity that can strike with precision, an entity capable of anything, a creature that dares to push your life to the edge... A solitary figure who desires only one thing in his entire existence... Revenge..."

Bang! The door was kicked open from the outside and three policemen came in holding guns. “What's happening?” Bruce had never been so confused in his entire life. The police ignored his question as they walked towards him, pointing the guns straight at him as one of them said “Don't try to do anything funny Mr Bruce Ortiz, do not move an inch.” “Hey I don't know what I did, what did I do?” Bruce looked around as though he could see an explanation of this written on the wall somewhere. “Mr Bruce Ortiz, you're under arrest for the theft of $750,000!” “What!” Bruce's eyes opened in shock “What the hell are y'all talking about? I've never stolen anybody's money in my life.”

This is a story of betrayal, revenge and most of all, mystery. For the longest time, all I've ever known was... Darkness. I was born and brought up in a family of royals, in a world of thorns and scorn, hate and greed, lies and betrayal, selfishness and parasitism. It wasn't easy surviving on my own but I found my way, in the shadows where I belonged. Many would envy and seek out my lifestyle because it appeared luxurious, and glorious even but it really wasn't. I was trapped in a neverending fight for control and most of all, my life only to see my death encroach slowly, to the point I started having nightmares about it. I was even abandoned by my own father. Well... It didn't matter. Because at the end of the day, I survive in between the light and darkness. I survive... In the shadows.

At the bank, they laughed—until they saw the endless zeroes in my account. At the gala, her new lover bid eight million. I said, “Twenty-five.” The room went silent. Now elites bow. Women admire.

The janitor you mocked is now the King you’ll never touch again.”

Adrian Kane sat in silence as his wife’s voice sliced through the air. "You are nothing but a gold digger. Sign the damn papers, Adrian. I’m done clothing and feeding you." He stared at her, the faintest smirk playing at the corner of his lips. She didn’t know. Not about the penthouse they were standing in, not about the company logo stitched into her designer dress, his company’s logo. And definitely not about the fact that the man she’d been sleeping with had been losing millions to him for months. Adrian picked up the pen. “Oh, Selena…” he whispered, signing the papers. “You have no idea what you’ve just done.” Ten years of lies. One ruthless betrayal. And a comeback that will shatter everything. Adrian Kane spent a decade living as a nobody beside the woman he thought he loved. But when she hands him divorce papers and calls him a gold digger, she has no idea that she’s just signed her own downfall. Because Adrian isn’t poor, he’s the billionaire CEO she’s been working for, the owner of the house she lives in, and the man her new lover has been losing to for years. Now, with a new wife at his side and the truth in his hands, Adrian will dismantle the world his ex-wife thought she ruled. But in this game of power, love, and betrayal… even billionaires aren’t safe from heartbreak.
