Although Drake had been making much effort to marry Racheal. But she kept turning him down, she only used him to kick Adam out of her life, he was only a stepping stone for her plans. After using him to achieve what she wanted she pushed him aside.

"If you say so darling. So have you heard about the Bulgart Industry?" Monica asked, taking a sip from her drink.

"Who hasn't? It's all over the news. Sadly it's beyond our reach."

"What do you mean? Aren't you going to apply for a deal?"

Racheal rubbed her temple softly, "Mother, Bulgart is the biggest industry in the world, what makes you think they'll look at our little company."

"Well, anything is possible." Monica waved her hands.

Just then Racheal's phone rang. It was Mr. Luther.

"Hello Dad."

"Have you heard the news dear?" Mr. Luther's voice was in haste.

"What news?"

"Bulgart Industry just launched in Almond City today, and Mr. White had already bagged a partnership with them as the company's Contract Manager."

"What? You serious Dad?" Racheal's eyes widened.

"Yes I am, if Mr. White is the contract manager, it means the CEO of Bulgart Industry won't be handling the contracts himself, but Mr. White would. You need to go there immediately. I heard there's just three slots."

"I'll be right there." Racheal said and hung up the call.

Monica overheard the conversation, her body was swelling with anticipation. "That's good news Racheal, go and try your luck. I'm sure you'll be lucky."

"Thanks mum. See you later."

Racheal dashed out of the office immediately.

....

Outside the White company there were many people, shouting with the security trying to get inside the company, but it was to no avail. Some of the people present flew from different states and countries just to meet with Mr. White, working with the Bulgart Industry is a dream come true for any firm and company.

Racheal arrived outside the gate with her car, the moment She came out and saw the crowd her jaw dropped. Instantly she lost hope of getting inside, all these people were the heirs and heiress of their family, and most of them owned a much bigger company than the Odias, so if they can't get inside themselves there's no way she would.

"Why are they so crowded?" Racheal stomped her feet on the ground. Seeing there was no way to get in, she decided to go back to her office before a familiar voice called from behind.

"I can get you in if you want." It was Drake, donned in a black tailored suit. He dipped his hands in his pocket and walked towards Racheal.

"Drake, you're here too?" Racheal asked.

"Of course, this is the Bulgart Industry we're talking about. And it's owned by the wealthiest man alive, it's a dream come true for everybody." Drake chuckled lightly.

"That's true, but sadly, there won't be any slots for both of us, the company is already crowded. And I'm sure Mr. White would have gotten people to fill up the slot." Racheal said with disappointment.

"Not really, my family did get a slot." Drake said proudly.

"What? Are you for real?" Racheal asked surprised.

"Yes, you know my family is very reputable, and my dad has been doing business with Mr. White for more than thirty years, they have a good relationship. So immediately my father asked, he didn't hesitate to Grant my dad's request."

"That's so nice." Racheal began to get closer to Drake. "So you're saying you can get me in?"

"Yes, I was sent down here by my father to complete some signatures, so I can use that opportunity to sneak you inside." Drake gestured.

"That's so nice of you."

"But on one condition." He raised his index finger.

His uniform remained spotless, his breathing steady, his expression unreadable.The Supreme General, in the flesh.To Draven, the sight was sickening.“You really don’t disappoint,” Draven sneered, wiping blood from the corner of his mouth, eyes narrowing with cold malice.

    The Next NightIt was 11:30 PM when the intel finally came through.Inside the Silver Squad’s secure briefing room, the air was heavy. Dim lights cast shadows across sharp faces. The hum of a holographic map pulsed softly in the center of the table, blue light washing over them.The squad was locked in, their expressions tight, jaws clenched. No one cracked a smile here. Not tonight.Adam stood at the head, arms crossed, watching, listening. His sharp grey eyes never missed a detail.Ivy, the team’s strategist, leaned over the table, fingers tapping against the map. “We’ve got movement,” she began, her voice steady but low, the tension riding under her words. “Matches Cross Blood activity. Remote site. Thirty miles out — old industrial zone, tucked in the forest. Energy readings are off the charts. Heavy electronic jamming, just like the last one.”Mira’s eyes narrowed. “Presidential intel backs this up?”Ivy gave a short nod. “Confirmed. Surveillance drones caught enough. It’s anothe

    The presidential banquet was already in full swing by the time Adam and Mira entered the grand hall.The room was nothing short of extravagant. The crystal chandeliers sparkled overhead, casting a soft golden glow across the polished marble floors. A live orchestra played softly in the background, and servers in crisp uniforms moved elegantly through the crowd, offering glasses of wine and hors d'oeuvres.Only the country’s top elites were present.Military generals, powerful politicians, corporate moguls, and foreign diplomats filled the room. Their tailored suits and glittering jewelry were a silent display of wealth and influence. Conversations buzzed around the hall, most of them carefully measured and polite.However, the moment Adam walked in beside Mira, the atmosphere shifted subtly.Many of the guests paused mid-sentence, their eyes drifting toward him. Some looked curious, a few frowned in confusion, while others quickly whispered among themselves.Unlike the others, Adam’s

    The rain hadn’t stopped, but neither had the engines.Ray City, Presidential District. The convoy cut through the night, blacked-out SUVs trailing behind as they approached the heart of national power.President Ryan Crowne stood by the window of the presidential suite, watching the armored vehicles roll in. His reflection stared back—gray at the temples, eyes sharp from years navigating war, politics, and survival.But tonight, there was no hiding the relief on his face.The door opened. His daughter, pale but alive, was wheeled in—her weak eyes locking onto her father’s.Ryan crossed the room in seconds, kneeling beside her. “You’re safe,” he whispered, voice thick. “You’re safe because of him.”Behind them, Adam stepped in.Combat boots. Plain dark clothes. His expression unreadable, his presence undeniable—for those with the sense to feel it.President Ryan straightened, extending a hand. “You’ve done more than I can repay, General.”Adam shook his hands with a nod. "It's my duty,

    Across the black waters of Ray City Bay, buried beneath the earth like a sleeping beast, alarms screamed.Cross Blood Headquarters.Steel walls reinforced with cultivation-grade alloys. Surveillance grids pulsing. Soldiers everywhere—armed, armored, eyes hard behind their masks.But none of them were the true threat.No—the real monsters stirred below.In a darkened war room, lit only by flickering holo-screens, General Voren stood like a shadow made flesh. His black armor gleamed with crimson sigils—the mark of one of the Seven Heads of Cross Blood.Footage looped across the largest screen.One man. No weapons. Only his fists.Tearing through Cross Blood soldiers like they were nothing but glass in a storm.Voren’s eyes narrowed, molten red pupils glowing brighter with every frame.The officer beside him was pale.

    Adam had already set the silver squad at their Target location.His eyes locked onto the convoy below—a fleet of matte-black transport trucks rolling down the abandoned industrial highway, escorted by armed guards in reinforced armor.“Project Phantom,” Adam muttered, perched atop a crumbling radio tower.Through the scope of his rifle, he could see them. Dozens of soldiers. No insignias, no faces—just masks and modified gear.Cross Blood's elite.Behind him, a faint voice crackled through his earpiece.“Visual confirmed. Squad in position.”It was Ivy. Cold. Sharp. Reliable.Adam didn’t flinch. His voice stayed steady. “We take the transport at sector seven. No witnesses. Get ready.”A low hum filled the air as Mira’s voice came next, buried in static. “EMP is ready. Say the word.”Below, the lead truck carried something dangerous.Adam’s intel was clear—the prototype wasn’t human.Modified. Engineered. Enhanced.But what chilled him most wasn’t what was inside…It was the faint memo
