“What do you mean I’m in trouble?” Athena asked, confused, her eyes were squinting at Layla, trying to figure out exactly what she was getting at.“Just now you said, ‘the fact that he is a guy I like…’ She noted, grinning with her hands folded, waiting for Athena’s reply.Athena’s reaction was like she had no idea what Layla was driving at, she couldn’t find the sense in what she was pointing at and was beginning to feel like she had just wasted two thousand dollars.“Athy, I have known you since middle school. Middle school girl middle school. And I have never heard you use that word.”“What word?” Athena asked, she wasn’t still seeing the point, not yet.“Now, do you remember Canye?”“Canye? Why not, how can I forget that dumbass.”“You really loved him didn’t you?”“Why did you have to bring up that dumbass?” Athena questioned with a light frown.“You loved a guy like him, he is a fine man, nice body sexy with tats and fine skin and rich, your type of guy all day… but you never in
”STAN!l!”“I have traced the number sire, I see an abandoned storage facility on Stevenson estate. They have a very tight security and it will take more time for me to hack into their satellite.” Stan Davidson replied before Aiden had to say anymore. He had been keeping close tabs on Aiden for sure, all of them had their stories about how Aiden helped them when there was no one and now came to be a very important part of their life and which caused them to have one or two obsessions with Aiden but it also made them had the maximum respect for him.“A satellite, do they have a private satellite?”“Yes, I don’t know how an ordinary estate can have a satellite…” Stan replied, breaking out a pearl of sweat in the dark room he was seated. He does have a large network of hackers that he has created a family with, a programming company that renders services in different ways but also underground is a company of notorious hackers that can even hack into a country’s satellite, destroy their nu
The man subconsciously takes a step back as he saw the fiery expression that overtook Hector’s face. This was a guy that they had been seriously beating the shit out of and didn’t respond. All of a sudden he is emitting the aura of someone that brings a bad memory to him.A pearl of sweat traced its way down the man’s temple, ‘Did he get like that because I mentioned the guy he talked on the phone with? But why is he giving off Dombiano’s vibe, this guy is only a Babyboy.., why am I fretting’ The man worked hard to confuse himself otherwise but he still couldn’t bring himself to care less about Hector’s sudden change.He adjusted the jacket of his suit and brought out a lighter from the pocket with a cigar in his other hand, he put the cigar into his mouth and lit it up.FuuuuuHe let out a great deal of smoke through his mouth and looked at Hector with a changed expression. All that cautiousness he had in his eyes was totally gone, one would have thought that he had some kind of anti
DO YOU WANT TO USE A GOLD CARD FOR MINION ‘HECTOR VANCE'S' AWAKENING]Aiden stared into the blue holographic tab that stayed in front of him, he was excited about what change this was going to bring but he also had to be sure and thorough about this. He took a deep breath in but did not sigh.“Yes,” He muttered low.[YOU HAVE USED GOLD CARD][REVEALING CARD INFO][IRON BODY (SSS)lv.1]IRON BODY: The ability to develop extreme physical resistance, a natural ability that would take millions of years of conditioning the body and mind to have. This ability allows the user to be able to withstand even the most powerful attacks.Aiden’s mouth fell, ‘something so powerful? Damn, I wish I was a minion.’He was amazed but there was something more he wanted to see. ‘According to the system the moment I use the card, I will also be able to see his profile and manage it. Let’s see, how do I make it come out?’ Just as Aiden was wondering with his hands beneath his chin another interface appeared b
Hector has always been a very great fighter even though he wasn’t as good as Hendrick or Eduard. He had thrown punches several times in his life and so he was used to his punches, the way he pulled them, the power expelled upon hit, and by his definition he would say average, nothing was amazing or extraordinary about his punches.And so where did this come from?! The young man was confused.“Haha…” The man laughed, raising his face and covering it with his palm. “Holy shit. I have underestimated you way too much.” The man slowly slipped his hand from his face, his expression slowly became rigid.“Clearly, you are a man of your own game. What I don’t understand is why wait until now to show off the stuff you are made of. Or is it because I talked shit about your master? It’s hard to believe a strong guy like you is stupidly loyal. He is one hell of a lucky dude.” The man said spinning the pocket knife in his hands, the knife had a hole he could slip a finger into.As much as Hector wa
”I am sorry, I can’t grant you entry. This is a residential estate that is strictly for high-class citizens and entry is strictly by identification card. Which it seems you have not.” The gateman in a bluish camouflage uniform said to Aiden who was seated in his car with his window down.“Not even when I am offering you a thousand grand?” Aiden asked tilting his head with the money in his hand.The man immediately glared at him with bloodshot eyes, cords pulsating on his temple and jaw. He smashed his big hands into Aiden’s window shattering the upper part as he reached for Aiden’s face.His hand stopped and caused the scowl on his face to switch up.His eyes rolled down to see Aiden tightly holding his wrist before his hand could reach his face.“Are you crazy?! You dare! To the boss?!” The driver shouted and angrily bumped out of the car but before he could go any closer, a gun was pointed at him from behind.“Move shit and Imma blow ya fuckin’ headya” The soldier partner of the gat
"Holy shit!”It was not Aiden that spoke, neither was it Hector.It was the only man that was with them but not physically. Stan put both hands on his head as he watched from the monitor as men with baseball bats, metal rods, and sticks poured out of the buildings and blocked the road forward.He hastily picked up his phone and punched it- compared to many others that were using smartphones, he was still in an era of button phones.“What is it?” A calm feminine tone replied to him on the phone but it sounded more radio-like and his phone was to be blamed.“I called you over an hour ago! I told you that the boss is in danger and that you need to be here as a backup! One hour ago and you are still not here! I thought you said you were in town?!”“Will you calm your shit down and not talk to me like that or else you will cause me to come to find that darned location of yours and beat the shit out of you” Her words were very convincing, in addition to the deep tones that was almost like a
“hahahahaaaa… Tsk tsk” Hector shook his head after a short laugh.“What? You do not fear for the life of your boss?” Romano’s smirk had been wiped off by Hector’s laughter despite the situation he had just explained to him. He perceived it as ridiculous and his face naturally carved out a frown.“You should be running to him right now yet you are laughing?!”That was the reaction he expected from Hector the moment he told him about the ambush, he thought the young man would run out in a scare wanting to save his master. By the skills that Hector had displayed Romano had naturally thought he was the strongest person in the mafia family and to him, it made sense why he was the only one that was sent to investigate the Black Lagoon matters.‘That means these people recognized Black Lagoon’s might, they sent their strongest and he acted strong… what I am not sure of is if his boss will actually come here to rescue him. Since he is the strongest, it is natural to think he will be okay. Eve
The following day, Aiden prepared to return to Canada and continue his hunt for the gang that took his parents from him.He had woken up at the crack of dawn full of vigour to start his manhunt. He had just finished packing his bags, his men already outside in the car, its engine on to keep it warm pending the time Aiden finishes with his father's friend.As Aiden's eyes skimmed round the room, his eyes landed on a small picture of his father and mother. His mother had been carry Aiden in her hands. Moving closer, Aiden inspected the picture. This was the first time he was seeing this picture as his grandfather didnt have it.He used a finger to trace their figure. Two of the most important people in his life reduced to nothing but memories frozen in photographs."That was during the time the mafia was after your father. He had come to me for a safe location which i had arranged for him. That was the last time i saw them. The next time i heard about them, it was news of their death. I
Then, the day they had been waiting for arrived. The head of the Black Lagoon syndicate was captured in Canada, drawn by the relentless attacks that had plagued his syndicate. As Aiden stood before him, his eyes ablaze with fury, he felt a cruel satisfaction in seeing the man who had taken his parents from him brought to justice.The room was dimly lit, the air thick with tension. The sound of rain tapping against the windows added an eerie rhythm to the atmosphere. Mishina Ren's eyes were cold and calculating, a stark contrast to the fire burning within Aiden's gaze.For years, Ren had eluded capture, always slipping through Aiden's fingers at the last moment. But tonight was different. Tonight, the odds were finally in Aiden's favor, and he was determined to make the most of it."Game over, Ren," Aiden's voice was laced with a lethal calmness. "You've caused enough pain. It's time to pay for your sins."Ren's lips curled into a chilling smile. "You're a persistent one, Aiden. But do
It was nightfall. The air was still, the surrounding eerily quiet. The usual night sounds were absent as though they had a premonition of what was to happen. Aiden walked in long strides towards a rundown motel. He had gotten intel that one of the remainjng Black lagoon comander was currently in there with a woman. He had evaded capture for sk long that he had began to drop his guard.He had been sighted in one of the clubs, bragging loudly about how he was as slippery as fish, difficult to catch.Soon after, his story had changed to how he had fought off his opponent's in their hundreds with just a baseball bat. With each change in story, he bought a drink and guzzler it down. He felt he had been lucky and all the commanders of the Black Lagoon was dead. To him, that meant that only he had access to the wealth of the Black Lagoon. He was going to cart away their riches and relocate to a quiet island, if possible buy the island and fortify it against intruders.Across the bar, a lady
By day, Aiden was the Chairman of Revenmar groups, breaking barriers and making waves in every industry they had projects in. He attended meetings and travelled to visit dignitaries who shouwed prospects of becoming investors.By night, he wrecked terror upon mafia families. Being the considerate and kind man that he was, he spared the innocent wives and children. Before staging an attack, he had his men do a thorough research about the family they were to attack.The punishments metted out was dependent on the gravity of their offences. Aiden was the judge and executioner. He understood that no mafia family was good, not even his but there were crimes he couldbt tolerate like human trafficking, rape, drug trafficking and reckless murders. Hence the research before attacking.It got so remarkable that crime rates reduced not only in Canada but also in other parts of the world. No government could pinpoint how the crime rate kept reducing drastically. Fear of the Naitatu plagued the hea

Early the next morning, even before the birds started chirping, Aiden was up and ready for his travel. He waited in the dark for the telltale sound of his chopper. At exactly 7 am, he heard the sound of the blades beating against the wind. Aiden had packed an overnight bag because he planned to stay till the next day. He vowed to uncover everything and every mystery that shrouded his early years and his father's past.Aiden made his way to the top of his building, using the stairs discreetly placed in his walk-in closet. He shouldered the door leading to the roof opened and stepped iut. His bag slung over his shoulder.Eduard stood there with three of his men. The moment he sighted his boss, he made to collect Aiden's bag which he refused with a shake of his head.A pilot sat in the cockpit. "How long is this flight going to be?" Aiden asked Eduard. He had chosen to travel early to avoid any delays on the way."It will take 6 hours sir. We will also have to touch base every two hours
The air was heavy with unspoken words as Aiden sat across from his grandfather, a palpable tension hanging between them. The room felt smaller, suffocating, as he gathered his courage to voice the question that had lingered in his heart for years.This was a few days after his eventual discharge from the hospital. Liam's trial had been swift because they had his confession. Every member of the Chrysanthemums Operation had been apprehended, facing different term sentences in prison. Gossamer shut down as news traveled far, causing its investors to pull out swiftly.Liam had been put on death parole, Aiden ensuring that his death happened sooner than later. The closure of Gossamer shot Revenmar to the top of the list of technology titans worldwide. It filled Aiden with pride as he was a core factor in making all these happen. After a few days of recuperating, Aiden resumed as the Chairman of the Revenmar Group of Companies unrivaled.Harris Revenmar had processed the release of Adam fro
Aiden's eyelids fluttered, and the world gradually swam into focus. The sterile scent of the hospital room filled his nose, and the soft beep of machines provided a rhythmic background to his returning consciousness. The events leading up to his current state seemed distant and fragmented, like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle he was struggling to put together.As his vision cleared, he found his grandfather sitting by his bedside. A smile stretched Aiden's face. Movements caused his grandfather to look up from his book, his eyes filled with relief as he saw Aiden waking up. With a steady hand, he reached out and pressed the call bell above Aiden's bed."I'm so glad you are awake. Oh, I have been worried sick about you! The doctors said your chances of survival were slim, but I was certain that the boy I and your ma raised was stronger than that."Within moments, the door swung open, revealing a trio of medical personnel entering the room. They wore matching white coats, their expressions, a
By nightfall, a majority of the attendees had left, ensuring to show their gratitude to their hosts as they went.Trisha and Aiden stood by the door, shaking hands or blowing air kisses as people left. The Chairman was by the side, speaking to some of the board of directors present.Trisha watched Aiden with concern in her eyes, mouthing her words. she asked if he was fine, to which he nodded in the affirmative. He still looked clean, untouched, his outfit without creases. Their aunt, Getrude, waltzed towards the door, her girls in tow."It was a pleasant evening! Although I must say my brother didn't train that boy right. Should have put him to the whip to beat out that nonsense entitlement from him instead, what does he do? Encourage the brat."Her girls looked uncomfortable behind her as she droned on. Aiden tuned out her voice, only nodding when it seemed like she needed him to.Thankfully, Faith pulls her mom forward. "Let's go, ma. There is a line behind you." Aidrn sent her a g
