CHAPTER 21
"Tony says he got some information," Edwin said to Alaric in the vehicle."Really! I hope that kick starts something because we've already met with a dead end." Alaric voiced hopefully.Edwin's face was glued to the window while he pondered upon what Perry had earlier on said."Alaric! What do you think about the Ageism company? I mean DEON?!" His expression was serious.Alaric sighed slightly, then he said. "Boss, I feel there is more to whatever is happening. I've never in my whole life heard the word Anti-ageing. Those goddamn people are trying hard to recreate what really doesn't exist."Edwin wasn't getting the answer he needed. A part of him felt like a whole that needed to be filled. Therefore, he kept his eyes closed till the vehicle came to a halt right before their apartment."Tony! Tony!" Edwin proceeded towards Tony's room only to find him before his system, together with Xander."Tony, what did you see? What info have you got? Because everything is really out of hand her

CHAPTER 22
Edwin hastened towards the door immediately and then proceeded towards the vehicle.Thank goodness, he had been able to learn driving during his college days, and now it's giving him an edge.He at first thought he had lost the guy until he gazed a while longer and then saw a red BMW Drive out from the park.Hurriedly, he ignited the engine and then began to drive tailing the red BMW.However, also trying not to get noticed. They drove from curve to curve until the guy drove to a forested path, Edwin on the other hand, still made sure he kept his pace even though he was following him.But then, the worst that could happen showed up.Right in front, there were two intersections, one at the right and one at the left. But then, from both ends, a vehicle each got to intercept the guy's car.He was stuck in between them and couldn't run. Then right at the same time, hefty men alighted both cars with a hefty man as well leading them with the charisma of a leader."Hey, Draco, get the hell

CHAPTER 23
All eyes turned to Edwin immediately. "Let him go, now!" Edwin repeated with a new stance, agitating everyone of them which he could all together count as six, excluding Draco who already seemed half dead on the ground."Who is the kid? Who are you?!" Damon dropped his gun inquisitively with a creased brow."You wouldn't want to know me, you wouldn't wish to feel the heat of my anger either. So LET HIM GO!" Edwin still spoke softly, both hands in his pocket while spoke.However, Damon wasn't easily intimidated, he took it as quite an insult to see just one person put a stop to him and his gang.Immediately, he pointed to his men one after the other. "What are you all waiting for, take him down, this minute."While he stood behind observing the fight, he allowed his men, go after Edwin.Edwin, a lithe and enigmatic figure, stood poised at one end, his eyes focused on the five hulking thugs who loomed before him. Their bulky frames cast long shadows on the worn cobblestone ground. Sub

CHAPTER 24
"Lord Shawn, we just received news that the company's shares are also falling. Shareholders are backing out and the board of directors are seriously on the edge with complaints." Cole was quick to tell Lord Shawn upon their arrival at the company after receiving a quick call."Likewise, all the companies we sent a proposal to for partnership, rejected us.""What about Carlos Conglomerate? Don't tell me they did reject us too?"Cole didn't know how best to break bad news to the old man, all he had in his file that morning were bad reports, and he feared for the old man developing high blood pressure, but then he had to say it.All along, he had always advised that Lord Shawn hands over the COO position to one of his kids, but Lord Shawn had always stood his ground, insisting that none of them were wise enough to handle the responsibilities of the family company."Cole, tell me something. Don't you dare give me bad news as regards the Carlos contract. Remember we pursued this immensely,

CHAPTER 25
"Boss, the doctor said he should be awake any moment from now. He's healing real quick." Alaric declared walking towards Edwin who was resting on the balcony alongside Tony and Xander.Edwin lifted himself above the seat immediately, and the others did the same. Draco had been unconscious for a week, and the four of them had been taking turns watching over him.The one on duty only got to take a rest whenever the doctor came around.Draco had said to heal in body, but his mind wasn't just coming alive.Edwin and his men were pretty worried as to why he wasn't gaining consciousness and the doctor had reported that the incident caused him very very severe brain injuries that would make him unconscious for more than 48 hours, which finally turned into a week.The doctor had also added that there was a high possibility of post-traumatic amnesia even after he regained consciousness. This has caused all of them to get weary on their mission. Everything is on hold.However, Alaric's report

CHAPTER 26
Upon their entry, Perry's jaw hung low in surprise and then he uncontrollably stuttered. "Mr. Volvox, Alaric, you are here. I thought you both ain't going to m…make it." Edwin and Alaric locked their gaze together in surprise, but Perry was quick to change his words. "Hmmm… Boss, I actually mean, I thought you both won't be coming anymore because it's some minutes past the expected time."Edwin and Alaric found their way to their respective seats before they said any more."Well, we are here now. A little delay, yes, but here we are." Edwin voiced but he was beginning to have doubts about Perry.Perry looked a little unsettled as both of them looked in his direction. "So can we cut to the chase, Perry?! I mean what exactly are we here for? You mentioned a deal, so let's make it faster." Alaric was the one who spoke this time."Oh, yes the deal." He inhaled sharply before he continued. "A company reached out to us, Mr Volvox, they want to partner with us on our new project. And going

CHAPTER 27
"What do you want to ask me?" Draco struggled to sit up inquisitively. Thereafter, Edwin leaned forward to ask."K5 who are they? What are they? And where exactly do they exist?" Draco gulped, he really didn't see that coming.Everyone he knew would never want to get involved with the K5 but right before him, a young lark was asking to be in."I bet you won't want to know about them. They are deadly, and …" Edwin cupped Draco's chin, locked gaze with him. Within that few seconds, Draco felt as though life would be out of him. "Draco… Tell me where the K5 exist?" A firm order proceeded from Edwin's mouth.Draco was forced to cut the gaze with a gasp, he briefly wondered how Edwin managed to have that gripping effect on him, but then it did work. "K5 isn't known to anyone. No one knows what they look like. No one in the gang is close to them, except Klaus.""Klaus?!" Almost everyone in the room exclaimed, the first time, they were getting another name from the crime world."Who exactly

CHAPTER 28
25th of May…Asides carrying out dirty jobs for politicians, another work carried out by the K5 was trafficking drugs for drug kingpins.Klaus's mission was to deliver a package to a client for a drug kingpin.He single handedly decided to handle the mission with Marcus because he feared his men wouldn't do it well. Moreover, he had private gains to get from it.The deal was fixed to the 25th, everyone in the gang knew about the mission and area but not the exact location.The package was set to be delivered at 9 pm, not later than then to avoid the corps.As usual, Klaus sat behind the sleek black SUV while Marcus took the lead to drive."Marcus, can you accelerate more, Mr Douglas shouldn't be the one to hasten us," he said while smoking his pipe. "Yes boss," he fired on. This wasn't the first time they were delivering to Mr Douglas, and the fact that Mr Douglas was actually a no nonsense person. He sticks to 9 as 9.Anything different from the expected time, he leaves the venue.

"You mean it? Like joining your gang?" Edwin's face lightened up in excitement in correlation to what was just said."Yes, join my gang, that's the only way you can take revenge on your enemies. You want to go against the corps right? Then you must be one of the bad guys? You must take no for an answer, to be at your best strength, show them the worst." Klaus was spilling with gripping action."You mean I should join the bad guys? Then I will have my revenge?""Yes, you will. I and my gang will go to any length just to help you. As long as you swear your loyalty to us, and you promise that you would stay glued to anything, I mean anything we say." Klaus stated.Edwin had some sort of excitement gleaming in his eyes. "I will, as long as you teach me how to use guns, fight well, and use weapons as necessary." He had the eagerness of wanting to know more and it amazed Klaus."As I said earlier on, as long as you are willing to know more, I'll definitely be of help." he paused before he s

CHAPTER 30
Edwin had to pause his food immediately and then stare at them. "Alaric, Tony, Xander, Draco?! What's the problem you are speaking of?""Boss, it's Perry. We don't know how best to say this, but we do feel like he has something up his sleeves. I tracked him just like you said and then I realised that he has been talking to a particular number over and over again. And…""And!" Edwin repeated."He will be meeting with the owner of that same number tonight. But no worries boss, because I did track his number. So we can tail him wherever.""Jeez… Why didn't you guys say anything?" Edwin arched a brow in confusion."We were just celebrating one victory, boss. Bringing this immediately in, could have been quite uncomfortable, so we decided to at least wait till dinner is over." Tony reported. "But Alaric said no.. He convinced me.""Well Alaric is right, Tony. As long as we are still in this mission, there is really no rest until we hit our goals.""My apologies, boss.""No need. Now, let's
