Xander's stomach churned with nerves as he prepared to confide in Lina. He knew it was dangerous, but he couldn't keep it secret anymore. He inhaled deeply before addressing her with meaningful words."Okay, I will tell you everything," Xander said, sounding a bit nervous. He pointed to an empty box in the dark warehouse, the perfect spot for them to talk. He quickly sat on the box and tapped the other side."Please sit with me, Your Majesty," he said, asking Lina to join him. She smiled at him and walked over gracefully, her sweater and jeans were a little dusty from being in the warehouse.When Lina sat next to him, Xander was amazed at how much she had changed at that moment. The rich girl who came in a fancy car and expensive clothes, was now sitting on an old box in a deserted building, without any signs of her wealth and power. The search for Xander's past was a quest taken on by Lina, a young woman.'Alright spill the beans, I'm ready.' Lina said with interest and care. Xander

Xander felt his heart beating fast as he stood still in the dark warehouse. He held Lina's hand tightly and her fingers were shaking against his. He gazed at the intimidating figures wearing hoods, who had forcibly entered through the door and were now surrounding them in a menacing manner.One of the men stepped forward and spoke with a hint of amusement in his voice. "Please don't run," he said, taking off his hood to show his scarred face. Xander quickly knew he was one of the guys who were chasing him before.Despite feeling scared, Xander didn't want to reveal his emotions. He knew these men were not here to give out candy or have a friendly talk. He prepared himself for what might happen, knowing he needed to be strong for Lina."Do you know who we are?" the man with the scars asked while looking straight at Xander."I know what you are." Xander replied in a confident voice.The man grinned like a wild animal and bared his sharp teeth."What do you want from me? Xander asked as

Lina's shiny, black car stopped outside the gate of Richard's company. She breathed in and looked at herself in the mirror before turning off the car. As she got out of the car, the security guard at the gate came up to her right away."Can I see your ID please? " The security man asked, sounding serious and official.Lina promptly handed over her ID to the man without hesitation.After a quick glance, he reacted with wide eyes when he realized who it was. Suddenly, his expression changed and he suddenly stood upright."I'm sorry, ma'am," he said nervously, speaking with respect now. 'I didn't recognize you. 'Lina didn't say anything, but she looked at the man with a serious expression. He pushed a button on the gate, and it opened with a buzzing sound. While the security man was dealing with Lina, he failed to recognize Xander who was riding in the passenger seat right next to Lina.'It's important that you keep my visit here a secret, do you understand?' Lina said firmly.He appear

Richard took a big breath and opened his drawer to find a flash drive. He had kept this secret since the meeting, and now it was time to tell the truth. He couldn't afford to hide it anymore because of the possible consequences."I secretly recorded the meeting just in case," he said quietly. He was shaking when he opened his drawer and took out a small flash drive. It had the recording of his talk with Mr. James, the man who started this entire plan.He looked at Xander, who was nervously waiting in front of his desk. Richard gave Xander the flash drive. "Our meeting was recorded on it." Richard said.Xander quickly grabbed it and put it in his pocket. He looked very happy and excited. He had come to Richard's office Lina, hoping to find proof that could get Richard in trouble. They were unaware, but they were on the verge of discovering something significant.Richard's voice suddenly interrupted the silence, bringing Xander and Lina back to the present moment. "Mr James came to me a

Xander's palm trembled as he grasped the flash drive, its contents reflecting the awful reality he had recently discovered. He couldn't believe what he was seeing: Scar Face, the notorious criminal who had been after him, standing right next to Lina's own father, Mr. James. This was clear evidence that Lina's father was firmly involved in the group Xander was investigating. Xander turned to face Lina, desperately trying to disguise his knowledge. Her eyes were fixated on the road as she drove, fully unaware of the film playing on her laptop. He hastily put the flash drive in his pocket, not wanting her to see the incriminating proof. No, he could not let her be upset. He was quite capable of handling this on his own. At least that is what he told himself. 'What's the problem?' Lina's words interrupted Xander's thoughts, causing him to startle slightly. He attempted a smile before shaking his head. 'Oh, it's nothing,' he said casually, attempting to play it off as a little matter. Bu

Lina's sleek black automobile came to a smooth stop in front of her family's magnificent and opulent home. She breathed a sigh of relief as she shut off the engine, the opulent interior's humming coming to a standstill. "Here we are," she said, looking over at her silent companion in the passenger seat, Xander. Xander was lost in contemplation, still reeling from the events of only a few minutes before, when they had retrieved a flash drive from an anxious person named Richard. His mind was still racing, attempting to figure out the connection between Lina's father and the mysterious dragon gang. Why would Mr. James join such a deadly organization? The questions burned in Xander's head. But for now, he kept his thoughts to himself as they exited the automobile. As they reached the massive house, Xander couldn't help but marvel at its magnificence. The immaculate lawn, the imposing exterior, and the servants who stood and stared in surprise as they entered. Xander couldn't help but r

Lina sat on a comfortable armchair, nervously drumming her fingers on the soft velvet upholstery. Her father, Mr. James, sat behind his enormous mahogany desk, his brow twisted in rage as he stared at her long-time rival, Xander. 'Why do you dislike Xander so much?' Lina spoke up, breaking the uneasy tension in the room. What has he ever done to you? Her father's expression darkened even more as he directed his penetrating glance at Xander. 'It appears you're the blind one here.' he responded coldly. 'I mean, look at him. He's obviously a low-life brat who is up to no good.' Xander only smirked in answer, his black eyes sparkling with delight as he turned to Lina.'Could you spare us a moment, Lina?' he respectfully inquired, shocking her with his abrupt request. She furrowed her brow in perplexity. 'Why? What do you have to say that I'm not a part of?' she inquired, anxious about leaving the two of them alone together. 'Just some little things we need to talk about, one gentleman

The packed restaurant terrace was filled with the sounds and scents of a beautiful summer evening. The clinking of glasses, the murmur of conversations, and the scent of rich, delicious meals filled the air. However, for Xander, all of these sensations appeared to dissipate as he held the woman he loved. As Lina's gentle lips touched his, a rush of emotion flooded over him, and he couldn't help but close his eyes and immerse himself in the moment. The butterflies in his stomach flew madly, and for a brief minute, he felt as if he were floating on air. Even when they kissed, Xander couldn't shake the feeling that everything was too good to be true. He has experienced scorn, he was judged by others around him for his affections for Lina, but as he held her in his arms, he knew she was his soulmate. Lina's smile lighted up her face as they eventually pulled away, and Xander couldn't help but smile sheepishly in return. The love in her eyes made his heart swell with joy, and no words we

The news of his demise spread like wildfire, a whisper of tragedy that soon turned into a public lament, his name etched in the annals of local heroes, a hero who had fallen in a quest to save a friend, a hero who had died in a blaze of glory.Back at the ballroom, Lina stood by the window, her eyes fixed on the cityscape, her face pale and drawn, her body wracked with sobs. The wedding cake, a testament to the dreams they had shared, now sat in the corner, a bittersweet reminder of a love lost, a life shattered.The sun, a cruel and mocking orb, peeked over the horizon, casting a pale, sickly light over the sprawling cemetery. It seemed to mock the sorrow etched on the faces of the mourners gathered there. The air hung heavy with grief, a tangible weight pressing down on their hearts. It was the day of Xander's burial, a day that had been so eagerly anticipated just weeks before; a day of celebration, of vows, of a lifetime together. Now, it was a day of mourning, a day of tears, a d
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY NINE
The warm morning air carried the scent of jasmine and wisteria, a sweet, heady fragrance that danced around Xander as he stood on the balcony with Lina. He held her hand, her fingers slender and cool against his palm, and his gaze swept across the bustling city below. The vibrant lights of the city throbbed like a giant, pulsing heart, a constant reminder of the life he had built, the life he was about to build with Lina.The ring, a band of polished silver etched with intricate symbols, sat comfortably on his finger. It was the ring that had shielded him from harm, the ring that had made him feel untouchable, a beacon of power that he could draw on. The ring was a constant reminder of his escape, his journey from a humble, forgotten corner of the city to the heart of its power, a rise that was as unlikely as it was exhilarating.But as he watched the twinkling lights and felt Lina's closeness, he felt a different kind of power, a warmth that spread through him like a gentle flame.

Xander sat awkwardly on the plush armchair, its soft cushions offering little comfort. Across from him, Mr. James, a man whose face usually held a gloomy expression, sat with his shoulders slumped and a worried frown etched on his brow.'Where is Lina?' Mr. James finally asked, his voice a low rumble.'She's resting,' Xander replied, his voice tight with worry. 'The poor girl had suffered too much.'He couldn't bring himself to say more, not after the past few weeks. The events had been a whirlwind of betrayal, pain, and a chilling realization of the true depths of the Dragon Group's influence.Mr. James, as if sensing Xander's feelings, leaned back in his chair and sighed. 'It's all my fault,' he whispered, his eyes flickering to the floor. 'If I hadn't joined the Dragon Group, none of this would have happened.' He looked at Xander, his face breaking into a heart-wrenching expression of regret. 'I was so naive. I thought they were just a business group, a powerful engine of progress.
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY SEVEN
The rage that had been simmering inside Xander since the first encounter with Scarface, the man with a face etched with cruel scars, bubbled over. The scene in the cellar replayed in his mind – the fear in Lina’s eyes, the taunts of Scarface, the taste of his own blood, the desperate fight against the Dragon Group. But then, the words of the old man, his mentor, echoed in his mind. The old man had said, 'Sometimes, forgiveness is the hardest choice, yet the strongest. It lets the poison go, not just for them, but for you too.'Xander turned to Lina, who was still trembling, her eyes wide with fear and disbelief. He knelt before her, his gaze lingering on the bruises that dotted her arms and the scratch on her cheek, his heart a knot of anger and concern. He wanted to tear Scarface limb from limb, to punish him for the pain he had inflicted on her, on him. Yet, the old man’s words resonated, a soothing balm on his burning rage.“I’ll let him live,” Xander said, his voice hoarse with th

The rage that had been simmering within Xander for years finally boiled over. A raw, primal hunger for vengeance consumed him, leaving no room for reason or caution. He watched as Tobias, his face contorted with smug disdain, casually tossed Lina aside as if she were a discarded rag doll. The movement was a spark igniting the inferno within him, fueling a fury that had no bounds.“Tobias,” Xander snarled, the word heavy with unspoken threats. His body, taut with pent-up energy, launched itself forward like a guided missile, aimed directly at Tobias. The air crackled with anticipation, the silence punctuated only by the thudding of his own heartbeat. He saw Tobias, his eyes widening in alarm as the inevitable collision drew near, raise his hands in a futile attempt to ward off the assault. The impact was brutal, a sickening crunch as their bodies collided with the force of a battering ram. They went down hard, the ground groaning beneath their combined weight.It was a dance of pure fe
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY FIVE
The cellar, once a dank and shadowed space, had become a crucible of raw magic and chilling fear. The air hung heavy with the lingering scent of burnt flesh and ozone, a silent testament to the fiery ball unleashed by Scarface, lieutenant of the Dragon Group. Everyone present, with the exception of Xander, had braced for a gruesome spectacle. They envisioned a scene of charred flesh and bone, the young man reduced to nothing more than a smouldering husk. Instead, they were met with a stillness that felt almost unnatural, a quiet defiance that spoke volumes.Xander stood amidst the wreckage, his clothes unmarred, his face serene. A soft smile played on his lips, a smile that held a hint of victory, of an inner knowledge that was unsettling in its calmness. The silence stretched, punctuated only by the ragged gasps of those who had witnessed this impossible display of immunity. Even Scarface, his face still contorted with a mixture of disbelief and rage, faltered, his eyes fixed on the

His movements, a blur of fists and feet, were a symphony of violence, each strike delivered with the precision of a well-oiled machine. He fought like a man possessed, fueled by a primal rage that defied description.His opponents, initially a horde of thugs, were now a scattered, demoralized mob. Their bravado had evaporated like mist under the unforgiving glare of the sun. They stood frozen, their faces etched with a mixture of terror and disbelief.

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY THREE
The oppressive weight of the iron door, thick as a tomb slab, pressed against Tobias's heart, a physical manifestation of the fear that had begun to gnaw at him. His mind, usually so sharp and calculating, was starting to scramble, his carefully constructed plan unravelling. He had anticipated every possible contingency, every threat, yet here stood Xander, a whirlwind of fury and determination, ready to shatter the illusion of Tobias's absolute control.A sickening thud echoed through the chamber, the sound of a man's body collapsing against the unyielding stone floor. Tobias's grip tightened on Lina's hand, his fingers sinking into her soft flesh, the pain a distant, irrelevant sensation. The man, a loyal soldier, had been a mere pawn in Tobias's grand scheme, a sacrifice to buy him precious seconds – seconds he was now desperately clinging to.He watched, frozen, through the intricate screen set into the door, as Xander, his face a mask of raw fury, gathered the raw power of the ri
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY TWO
The acrid scent of clay hung thick in the air, a miasma interwoven with the faint tang of fear. Xander, his fists clenched, couldn't stand there any longer, a caged beast watching his prey chant insults. The man, a hulking form, stood by the racks, his gaze fixed on Xander, but his eyes, darting nervously, betrayed his vigilance. He was a watchman, a sentinel, placed there by the dragon group, the shadowy organization that had snatched his fiancée, Lina.Xander's anger was a roaring furnace within him, fueled by a desperation that gnawed at his sanity. He had tracked them, followed the slithering trail of clues, leading him to this ramshackle pottery shop, a facade cloaking a dark secret.With a roar, Xander lunged, a blur of fury. His fist connected with the man's jaw with the force of a battering ram, sending the watchman reeling backward. He crashed against the wall, but before he could find his footing, Xander was upon him again, his grip like a vise.'Now,' Xander growled, his vo
