Chapter 17 Avon, escorted by Castian soon arrived at their next stop. Which in Avon’s words was to visit an old friend. Castian has no idea who this old friend was or what he does, he was curious to see him and observe. As soon as they stepped onto the porch, the door opened wide to reveal a man in his mid thirties, attractive but unkempt. “General!” The man called out in awe, his gaze paled at the sight of Avon. “Simon.” Avon smiled at him. He however, was stuck in disbelief. He’s heard news, rumors about the death of the Dragon General. And his sudden disappearance doesn’t null the sense of those rumors, Avon Barksdale disappeared, he was gone for years. His acquaintances were forced to believe he’s indeed dead like the public announced. “Please come in, come in.” He snapped out of his reverie, opened his door wider for their entrance. “I couldn’t believe it when I saw your face popped into my footage feed, I had to stand up and come confirm by myself. That is it rea
Chapter Recap Of The First Book…….The Last Chapter…… 167Kory stared with confliction, now that he knows who she is. Was he going to rat her out or is there an agenda to why he kept quiet and gave her a subtle look of knowledge. She approached him with slow cautious steps, “Who are you?” Her head tilted slightly, her eyes squinting obliquely at him. “I’m not the Finn you know, I’m the total opposite.” He responded, bored and typically plained. “Then who are-““It doesn’t matter. What matters is joining hands to achieve our aims. Yours is retrieve the divinity surrounding Avon, while I came to claim his soul. That we should works towards and should matter.” He had cut her off, summing up the base of their plans. “You were going to frame Lorraine for the murder of your body right. I definitely can help with that, I will be the witness and use my abilities to manipulate things into supporting this plan. This would create a rift between them, a dispute you would take advantage of him
Chapter 1 (Book 2 of the Dragon’s Lord Return) The Dragon Lord’s Legacies. Avon’s point of view I stood there, regardless of the situation playing out in front of me. My wife, Lorraine holding my son close to her and restricting him from touching me. Amazement shunned through my eyes, and I tried understanding what was going on. I woke up from my five years coma, and my wife was married to a new man.Not any new man, Richard Wilson of all men in EastVille. As if that wasn’t shocking enough, my son has been legally made his son. And all I own belongs to him, his name, and nothing is left for me. How did this happen, what is going on? “I said get out before I have the security do their job.” Her stern voice cautioned, resoluted with her gaze fiery and the least passive. Her index went as much as pointing out the door. What am I missing here? Five years ago, after the mini burial we held for Kory Anders, my wife got sick and we found out the sickness was caused by the life growi
Chapter 2 Working on the ideas he had to get himself transported to EastHill’s capital, he visited the city’s bank. He was vividly recognized, hence them attending to him quickly. Avon spoke to the bank’s manager privately, having him lend to him some cash to aid his transportation to the capital and come back. Although, Avon’s request came as a shock to the manager. He legit was expecting the known Dragon General to table his notion of investing in his bank, not to lend from it. He heard about how he went into coma, and now he’s awake. What he doesn’t know about, is how everything has been taken away from Avon. He agreed to lend him the money, on the agreement that Avon pays double. Avon agreed, and the money was immediately processed and given to him. Avon was now on his way to the capital, he got himself a phone on his way to the airport. Registered a sim to send and receive calls, then flew to the big capital city.He arrived at the penthouse, still clothed in his casual out
Chapter 3 Avon had settled into a seat with Faye, they’ve conversed about all that happened the past few hours they crossed paths. He learnt of her name during their conversation, and was right about her being Lorraine’s cousin. She had told him how everything began turning from white to black after he went into coma. Richard Wilson started from claiming each and every of the Hales’ wealth, he did it not everything by himself, but with the support of a serpent amidst the Hales; Royce Hales. Avon learnt that the Wilsons were cleansed of their sins the moment he went into coma, they didn’t spend another night in prison suffering for their crimes. And went right back to committing more crimes after gaining their freedom, Richard Wilson worked with his father in sending Lorraine off to some jail time for the murder of Kory Anders that Avon buried and never allowed the news make the public, after which he used the opportunity surrounding her absence to steal every of her husband’s pos
Chapter 4 “Damien Barksdale, your cousin….” Avon thought he heard wrong, but the strange eyes of this young man gleamed as a reminder. He did just refer himself as his cousin. Avon looked down at the palm stretched out, hesitant before making contact with him. “I know there’s a lot you have to ask, but I assure you there’s a lot more to share,” he spoke with warmth. “Now I’d be more please if you’d invite me to your home where we can have an actual conversation?” He subtly suggested. Avon weaved no response other than stepped back to open his door wider, the gesture beckoning an invite to him. Damian pasted a warm smile before his feet swung in, Avon led the both of them straight to his living room where there was nothing much to gush at. He had just move in, hence furnishing the house was as fair as the night sky to the night dwellers; he’d redecorate once he’s more settled in and comfortable. The both of them took their respective seat on one of the seaters with Damian on the
Chapter 5 The next day came quickly and Avon sets his sights opened early as he strolled down the stairs all freshened and dressed up. With no lingering space for breakfast, he opted for a cup of coffee instead before he saw himself himself out of his apartment. He had with him a briefcase that looked exactly like the one he collected from Damian, Damian who’d left after his thorough narration about all he missed. Avon showed his appreciation, plain and simple, but beneath his crisp attitude was him joyous and beyond happy that Damien could help as well as be his savior. He doesn’t seem to know anything about this extraordinary talent so he wouldn’t know how he’s become so empty without them. His priorities weren’t even to get back his powers, it was to get back his legacy and that is his son, then stop playing around with Richard and his family. It is high time they taste the sour taste of defeat. He’s tasted it twice and no more, once when he lost his family to the Great Five’
Chapter 6 There was nothing Richard could do, a move he could pull, a twist he could make, that would work in his favor and totter the Dragon General. “Two more minutes,” Richard forced his feet into motion as he traced his path to a corner of his office, there he made some moves that revealed a secret inn inside the office. He went inside alone, Avon stayed back and didn’t give the order for his man to follow him. He went inside the cubed space room, at the middle was a tall and standing placement that housed a metal safe. He got to the safe and typed in the pin. The safe cracked open and a box came into sight, he brought out the box made of plastic glass. Inside the box were multiple papers neatly stacked in sets. He took the box with him and returned back to the office where Avon was seated, waiting for him. He handed the box over to him by dropping it on the table in front of Avon. “Needless to mention that if any of the documents in here are fake or forged, the consequence
