Chapter: 44. DeleteAxel stood in his penthouse, his eyes fixed on Liam. It was the weekend, and it's part of today's schedule to have training. Liam gazed at Axel with a critical eye. "You're getting better, Axel. Your strength is intensifying, and your movements are more precise." Axel nodded, his face set in doing the best he could. "I practice all the time. Too bad I haven't used my skills on anybody, but it's becoming very tempting, and I worry that sooner or later I will lose my cool." Liam smiled, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "Axel. You have potential—great potential. Sooner or later, your powers will be revealed, and you'll move into the academy. Before then, I suggest you keep your anger contained and not harm any civilians." Axel's eyes widened, his heart racing with excitement. "The academy? You mean... the Phoenix Academy?" Liam nodded, his expression serious. "Yes, Axel. You have the makings of a great warrior. But remember, with great power comes great responsibility. Use you

Chapter: 43. Delete Raya sat in the corner of the dark room, her body wracked with sobs. Every inch of her ached, a reminder of the brutal hands that had dragged her here. The room was too dark and suffocating, making her feel like she was drawing in her nightmare even though she was. Slow and silent sobs escaped from her lips as she tried to adjust her sitting position, but she had to bite on her lower lip to stop the cry that threatened to slip. She couldn't see a glint of lightness, and the silence in the room was oppressive and scary; it made her heart skip every here and there. The only sound that was heard was her deep breaths. Her mind raced with the thought of Axel. She had tried so hard to warn him not to get involved with her uncle or Darius, along with his father; they are two dangerous men that one shouldn't dream of mingling with. She hoped that he had realized that, but he was too bullheaded for a poor person. He never listened, always so confident in his abilities, never realiz

Chapter: 41.Axel walked through the front door of his apartment, exhausted from the long day it had been. The martial arts session had completely drained the daylights out of him. He needed to get some rest, and part of him hoped that Raya was asleep, as he didn't have the energy to entertain any of her dramas, at least not today again.He knows she has so many unanswered questions, but when it is the right time, he will let her in on it, but for now, no.As he walked further into the house, his exhaustion quickly turned to shock. The room was in disarray—furniture overturned, vases shattered, and papers scattered everywhere."Raya!" Axel called out, panic creeping into his voice. "Raya, where are you?"He rushed through the living room, eyes scanning the area for any sign of his wife. But she was nowhere to be found.His heart dropped as he let out a frustrating hiss, yelling out her name."Raya, answer me!" Axel yelled, his panic turning to fear.He dashed into the bedroom, but it was in the

Dragon's Vengeance: Rise Of The Secret Billionaire
You know exactly what I mean," she blurts, her voice filled with frustration. "I know you wanted a life of wealth, far from the wretched one you live and I wanted to offer you that if you had just taken my offer and back out" She spat.
He feels a surge of anger rising within him, fueled by her accusations. "Shut up!" He snapped, his voice laced with bitterness.
Yet he hurriedly forced a thin lipped smile.
"You know Exactly what I'm saying is right.," she retorts, her orbs blazing with a mix of anger and disgust.
"I will never be able to love you, Ares! You are undeserving of me! I deserve way much better than your crap!" she seethes with venom, her words laced with anger and disdain.
He can't help but chuckle, unable to contain his amusement. "And you think I'd settle for a brat like you? You will never be enough for me," he retorted, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

Chapter: EPILOGUE Two years later"Kill him," Ares says, cutting off from the call. He heaved out a breath, walking out of the room.He left for England two days ago after lying to Elena that he had some work-related issues and would be back as soon as he could for Ryan's fifth birthday.How time flies. Just like yesterday, the duo were on each other's necks wanting nothing to do with one another, and today, all he could say or do was be more grateful to fate.Ares left for England to finalize everything with his daughter's foster parent. He had paid them off handsomely for giving his daughter the best parental care, judging by her behavior and character. He also promised them that Nova would come to visit.Ares still hasn't informed Elena about it; he wanted it to be a surprise. His family isn't complete without having her as well.She was born out of the mistake they made years ago; call her a beautiful mistake that he'll forever cherish."Master" Henry cuts him out of his train of thought."Yes He,

Chapter: Chapter 112Russor regretted leaving Ares there. He could have finished him off, when he had the chance to.Why had he not loaded the gun, before now? He must make sure that Ares does not survive it, because it would be easy for him to manipulate Allison to signing everything to him.He had recently found out about Ryan, and didn't know know him, that was why he had put Allison's name as his next of kin. It was temporary, because as the rules stated, he needed to have a son, who would inherit all of it.When he had found out about Ryan, things did not go on well as he planned, so he had no time to change certain things.If he could not kill Ares, he would need to have him in his custody, so as to get Allison, who was softhearted, to sign everything in his name."Do everything you have to do to make sure he does not make it out alive," Russor instructed.He had lost the chance to kill him, but it didn't mean he was too late to do it. It was all because of Ares that his right to freedom of movem

Chapter: Chapter 110Ares was restless. He tried everything possible to find out Russor's location, but every time he tried, it kept saying 'not found'. The pictures of his wife and son were still vivid in his mind. He could not get the picture out of his head. They kept flashing in, whenever he tried to think of a solution.He had asked Allison to join the men to track their location, and he also did that because he wanted to be alone.His mind was in chaos. He was panicking.If he didn't act fast, by the this time, tomorrow, he might receive a photo of.."No!" He yelled, dreading the thought of receiving their corpse. He would never have forgiven himself, because it would be his fault, partially.There was nothing he could do, but surrender the inheritance to him, and devise a way to run away with his family. He just wanted this nonsense to end.He prepared all the documents that was needed to be handed over to Russor. He stared at all of them, like he was trying to imprint it on his mind.All his fath

Chapter: Chapter 109Russor was not stupid. The ring alone could not do so much. It was only a way to lure Elena into his lair, get hold of her, and of course, make Ares hopeless.She had suffered an external bleeding from the blow, making blood to trickle down the side of her face. She was tied up, and thrown beside her son, who laid helplessly on the floor.Russor was an epitome of a heartless demon. He could not even pity the 4-year-old boy!He asked the man to take a perfect picture of the mother and son in all angles, and sent it to Ares.He added a caption to it, which said: "How do you like this present? Any further delay, and you'll be gifted their dead bodies. I'm sure they are more important to you than that inheritance, be smart, Ares. Be smart."Allison came back from the black web. She had been there for a while, trying to track Russor's location, but it was all in vain.She needed to check up on the duo, and when she got the house, she found it strange as to how quiet it was.Could it be th

Chapter: Chapter 108"Alright, then. Great choice you have made, Elena! You have less than a day," he said."What?" "I give you 12 hours. I believe that you are a smart woman, you can get it done in 6 hours, even. Once you get it, call me, and I will send you the location. Remember, no one. I mean, no one at all should know about this," he voiced sinisterly."Do not harm my son, please. I will bring the ring to you, just don't do anything to him," she begged, feeling a sense of guilt, for being so irresponsible."Get to it, already. Your time has already started. You now have 10 hours to go, if I were you, I would not say anything further. Good luck!" He said, and let out a wry laughter.The phone beeped. He had ended the call, leaving her to devise a plan to get the ring.She sat on the bed, and didn't feel comfortable, so she began to pace around the room, racking her head, trying to come up with something.How was she going to get the ring? For one, Ares would not give it her if she demanded it, and h

Chapter: Chapter 107Elena stepped back a little, shocked at his confession. She had not expected him to say something like that. Not even in her wildest dreams, did she think Ares would actually profess his feelings for her."Wh…what did you say?" She asked again, to confirm that she was not dreaming.He looked into her mesmerizing eyes, captured by its ocean blue orbs, feeling entrapped. He moved some inches close to her. Subconsciously, she moved back, until she hit the wall, where she could no longer move any further.He smirked, trapping her in between his arms, as his tall figure dominated her little frame.Their eyes were locked in each other's world. He diverted his gaze, and held her hand, gently.His caressed it with so much care and tenderness, as he proclaimed his love for her, once more."I love you, Ares."She opened her mouth to speak, but her words failed her. She just didn't know what to say, or maybe, she was afraid to see it.He lifted up her chin, and drew closer to plant a kiss on h
