Under The Oak Tree 2

In a world where power overruled humanity, Austin Blake was nothing but a beggar- a delivery man whose own wife orchestrated his public humiliation. Until the night everything changed. Rising from the ashes of a near-fatal accident, Austin emerged as an enigma that sent shivers through the shadows. Under the wing of his mysterious family, he transformed from prey to predator, wielding wealth like an assassin's blade. As billion-dollar empires bowed and political dynasties trembled, his former oppressors watched in horror as their worlds crumble. Yet, behind Austin's meteoric ascent lurked an ancient secret - one that made his enemies' worst fears seemed like child's play. As Austin rose to the top in the Billionaires societies and global political circles, he became almost invincible, but even the gods could bleed. The only question was, whose blood would flow first?

In the slums of Naples, Santino Leandro learned one rule: power is survival. When his father is murdered in broad daylight, Santino is left with nothing but a name. Determined not to die forgotten, he builds himself from the ground up first as a street dealer, then as a quiet force within Europe’s criminal underworld.

But nothing in this world comes without a price. As Santino rises, he finds himself surrounded by secrets. The woman he trusts may be a spy. His brother may be a traitor. And the empire he’s building may never have truly belonged to him. Power isolates. Loyalty breaks. And love, in this world, is a weapon. In the end, only one name will be remembered.

Aella “whirlwind” Harlow was looking at the screen of her phone with earbuds on, the live speech of Aniya Rossi in the United Nations. She sighed and mumbled when it ended, “Dumbass… Werewolves accepted by society, protectors, helping Humanity achieve greatness. Yeah, greatness my butt! A good Werewolf is a dead Werewolf! Spoiled brat… Stupid bitch…” She checked her quiver, counting the darts still there. A quick glance at the pistol crossbow on the left side of her belt, and at the Ruger gun inside the holster under her left armpit. Grabbing her faithful Labrys, a double edge axe, was the last thing she did before hearing a howl nearby. Aella frowned and mumbled, “Showtime…” (It is the sequel of "The Flesh-Eating Werewolf", set 20 years in the future, but can be read as a stand alone, but with minor mentions to events in the first story, and some previous characters that will appear in this story.)

Then the Collapse hit, his own command marked him for elimination, and the world watched their war god die. Six months later, he's alive. Level 1. Unranked.

Melvin was taken aback, exclaiming, "What!? How could you have two sons-in-law when Naira is married to me?!" He stared in disbelief at his mother-in-law, who responded with a cruel smile. "Because she's going to divorce you!" she sneered. A sinking feeling enveloped Melvin as if the ground had been pulled from under him.
