"Please, I haven't committed any crimes! I can't go to prison; I have families!" Another man fell to his knees, breaking into sweat. Their leader's eyes widened in surprise, watching as his gang members crumbled to their knees in the presence of one man. Though they were young recruits, and he had trained them to be the best, they were already defeated by the words of a man.

Tobi stared at Mason, who wasn't affected by the murderous look. "Do you think bragging about a dashcam will save your life?" Tobi's voice thundered through the space. It was the first time he had been hired to beat up someone, and it didn't turn out as planned, but it seemed Tobi wasn't ready to give up.

Mason was quiet. He knew the only way to crumble a gang without getting physical was to destroy them by themselves, a great plan Emoji had suggested.

"Get your ass up from the ground, you fools! He is bluffing!" Kobi sneered at his apprentice, who glanced at each other as if contemplating the order.

    With every step Mason took, inching closer, Tobi crawled backward, shivering with fear. He could clearly see the danger lurking in Mason's eyes, which he didn't notice when his gang member was around, but now that he was at a disadvantage, everything was evident.“Please, you can't do this!” Tobi pleaded, winking at the pain in his abdomen.Mason, adamant about his words, scoffed with a knitted brow. “Of course, I can,” he growled in a dreadful tone, raising the bat above his head.Tobi's eyes mirrored his movement, and he saw the iron bat descend in one swift strike, making him scream. “P…Please stop! I haven't killed anyone! I haven't committed any crimes. This was the first time; please forgive me.” Kobi broke into tears, staring at the bat that halted mid-air above his leg. Mason was about to say something, but Kobi quickly shivered to his knees, rubbing his palms together, pleading. “I didn't want to take the deal Jacob proposed, but I needed the money,” Kobi said with tears flo

    The drive to the mansion was fast and short. The men in suits bow their heads in respect as Mason navigates his way into the compound, illuminated by sophisticated street lights. Their guests' cars were parked inside the compounds. Deciding not to park the Bugatti in the garage, Mason saw a good spot and turned off the engine. He was about to exit his car when the constant vibration from his phone caught his attention.Mason slid his finger across the screen and opened the school group chat, which greeted him with numerous unread messages, with more coming in. Mason furrowed his brow since the school group chat is always quiet and is only active when there is an announcement or new gossip is going on on campus. He scrolled down, and his curious expression turned into a frown because the viral topic causing the commotion was about him and nothing about the school's activities."Mason Williams paid $62,856 for a meal!" The text that instigated other messages announced.Mason shifted hi

    Mason glanced at his watch; he didn't expect to spend up to thirty minutes watching the live stream, but he was satisfied with how the event turned out. He closed the car door with a soft slam before making his way to the mansion. The guards, who were posted at the entrance, saw him from a distance and bowed their heads in respect, which he reciprocated with a nod. Inside the mansion, Mason made his way to the dining room, where he heard more than one voice having a conversation. When he got closer, he could hear a masculine voice half-yelling, probably disagreeing with whomever he was talking to. Within a few minutes, Mason appears in the room, occupied by his family and other foreigners whom he assumed were his distant relative. Amidst the group were two familiar faces he remembered; one was Thomas, and the other was Jerry, who seemed to be irritated by what Grace had said. Mason shifted his gaze to his mother, who shrank her eyes, staring at Jerry, who was heaving with anger. “I

    "Everyone, this is Mason, Haley's twin brother," Grace said with a smile, which Sarah and her associate reciprocated with a stunned expression. Though their minds had already thought of the possibility of this man being Haley's twin, Still hearing Grace say it left them dumbfounded. Mason watched as his aunties and cousin glanced at themselves, confusion evident on their faces. Sarah, who was the first to overcome her shock, cleared her throat. "I thought you were joking when you introduced the little girl as your daughter, Grace, not to talk of a son," she said, shifting her gaze from Helen, who didn't meet her eyes, to Mason, who could tell she was wearing a forced smile twitching at her mouth. "You're Haley's twin brother! Even Richard didn't tell me about them." Grace smiled at their stunned expression and said, "It was best the public never knew about it," Sarah's heart was filled with rage and shock, discovering her brother had other children, which she nor the public was

    Curiosity spiked as Grace's voice reverberated through the room. "Where did you hear the news of a new project? "she asked seriously. Seeing Grace's reactions, Sarah smiled as she sipped from her glass. Even when all eyes were staring at her, demanding an explanation, she remained quiet. Calista knew it wouldn't do them any favor to keep Grace's curiosity, so she cleared her throat to attract her attention."There have been some rumors," Calista said, and her eyes roamed the table before resting back at Grace, whose frown softened as she began to explain. "We are not stalking the Williams business, but we heard you are making a big move with your new project, which will take the Williams Business to the next level."When Calista stopped her Explanation, Mason averted his gaze to his Mother, who listened carefully. She furrowed her brows and said. "Is that all? "Her tone was painted impatiently, and the Sisters bobbed their heads at the same time.Even with the stern expression, Mason

    Mason groaned at the obnoxious sound shrieking inside his head. He pulled at his pillow, covering his ears, but pulled him into reality. When he finally opened his sleeping eyes, he shifted his gaze from his window, which was adored by the morning light, to the hologram displayed in front of him. Emoji was wearing a broad smile in the left corner of the screen. Mason heaved a sigh and adjusted his eyes to the alarm on his bed, and it was 6 am.“What is it?” Mason said through a beach breath.“It looks like you were sleeping,” Emoji muttered innocently.“Of course, I was sleeping,” Mason's eyes dagger at him, noticing the sarcasm lacing his tone.Emoji smiled, moving closer to him. “Well, it seems you're awake now,” he said, making Mason mentally roll his eyes.“The Celestial Assassin temple is ready and waiting for your arrival by 7:30 am,” Emoji said. “Don't be late; first impressions matter.”When Mason heard this, sleep evaporated from his eyes. “Why didn't you say so,” he murmured

Behind her were Helen and Mason, who pulled his gaze from his watch to stare at Fiona leaning in to whisper something to Helen, who immediately lit up with a radiant smile and nodded enthusiastically, thrilled by whatever secret she had just shared.As they stepped into the expansive skating rink, closing the door behind them, the familiar lyrics of the music reverberated through the air, creating an infectious energy that contrasted with the chill of the surroundings.

    The Manager Boss

    The manager, seeing Mason holding out his card, erupted into another round of laughter. He knew an average bank account would struggle to accommodate a single transaction of $100,000, let alone the staggering amount that Mason was now claiming he wished to pay.After laughing to his content, the manager wriggled his brown eyes across the black, and when he finally saw the distinctive inscription etched into the dark material before him, an unexpected wave of emotion surged within him. He felt a lump form in his throat, a mixture of surprise and disbelief, as he turned to Mason.“I…Is that a black card?!” The manager stammered, his mouth watered with confusion, as he fought the overwhelming urge to rub his eyes, hoping to clear the fog of uncertainty and confirm what he was seeing was real.Mason, with whom the question was directed, remained quiet, allowing the sound of reality to sink into the man.“How is that possible?

    Skating Rink

    “Have some faith in your brother, Helen,” Mason said, faking a hurt expression. “I don't need to practice how to skate since I have a natural talent for it,” he grinned, maneuvering their way towards the other side of the park. Unlike the rest area of the park, surrounded by people and chaotic happiness, the building, which Mason assumed was meant for skating, stood empty and silent, prompting him to look up for any sign of life within its uninviting façade.“Are you sure we are in the right place?” Helen asked, her little brows knitting together as she surveyed the scene. "It looks deserted. Why is it so empty?" She asked, shifting her weight from one foot to the other. Mason, who couldn't provide an answer to her question, tilted his head slightly toward the two men positioned near the entrance. The way they stood, broad-shouldered and alert, instantly sparked a sense of recognition. Their postures were rigid, exuding an air of authority, and he quickly deduced that they were not

    A flurry of activity outside the windshield suddenly broke the lingering silence inside the car. Helen, who was sitting in the passenger seat, gazed in awe at the vibrant scene through the tinted glass, while her hands rested on the door that separated her from all the fun outside.“It's Aleric Dreamland!” she exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with wonder as they fixated on the towering Ferris wheel that loomed against the vivid sky. From afar, they could hear the sounds of laughter and the screams of riders ascending into the air. “Holy cow!” Helen muttered, Peeling her eyes from the scene, she turned to Mason, who had already predicted her next question. “Are we going to the park? Are we going to ride the Ferris wheel?!” she inquired, her voice bubbling with eagerness, not leaving room for him to answer her first question.Mason let out a small laugh, then nodded his head. “Yes, princess, we are going to the Dreamland, and you can choose whatever activities you want to do today,” he r

    The Big Brother

    As Mason approached the entrance to the fifth-grade iris classroom, two men in black suits, which he recognized as Helen's security guards, were sentinel outside the closed door. When they spotted him and the lady walking next to him, they instantly shifted their attention, performing a precise and synchronized bow that demonstrated both respect and discipline. Mason, without a word, returned their greeting with a firm nod. Ms. Telsa gently place her card on the door, and as the door slide open, the hushed murmurs of the classroom faded, and all eyes turned to the newcomers. A curious blend of surprise and interest filled the room, and the students dressed in their neat uniforms collectively directed their gaze from Ms. Telsa to the man who had interrupted their ongoing class.Mason, who wasn't expecting such a scene, instantly glanced at the watch before he navigated his gaze to the lady standing in front of the classroom.‘Are all the teachers in the school this young?’ He muttere

    Asking For Directions

    When she finally noticed Mason's gaze, she instantly let out a forceful smile then glance at her colleague before walking away to greet another parent. “Shall we?” The girl with tinted gray hair asked softly, her voice barely above a whisper as she nodded toward the entrance of the building. With a subtle yet confident gesture, she stepped forward, and Mason trailing behind her, commanded attention by his presence. They took a turn into the long hallway, and Mason's gaze dropped to her figure. Her long gray hair flowed down her back, catching the soft glow of the lobby lights and adding an ethereal quality to her appearance. The fitted uniform she wore clung to her curves in all the right places, accentuating her silhouette while remaining professional. Mason’s eyes were drawn to the way her tan skin glowed against the crisp fabric of her outfit, making it challenging to pinpoint her racial background. Each step she took made her movements almost dance-like as she navigated throu

    “That's alright,” Mason replied with a casual smile, unfazed by the curious glances from those around them. With a fluid motion, he retrieved his phone from his pocket and tapped at the screen, which lit up, and exchanged numbers with them, sealing their brief conversation with a friendly nod. After a few warm goodbyes, he headed toward the administration building where his car was parked. Mason circled out of the parking lot and headed downtown Aleric City, navigating through the familiar streets lined up with shops and cafes, bustling with activities. After a few miles, he finally arrived at Heaven Institution, where Helen attended school.Keeping his promise to pick her up, Mason slowed down and navigated toward the elegant, modern building with its sleek glass facade. In front of the building, staff dressed in sharp formal wear gathered in the late afternoon light, and their polished shoes gleamed as they exchanged polite smiles and warm handshakes with the parents who had come t

    Junior Colleague

    After the test scores were announced and the dean of students exited the classroom, several chairs scraped against the floor as the students, still reeling from the shock of the results, slowly filed out in a somber group, reminiscing about the surprising twists of the test. At the back of the line, Mason and Jeremiah lingered, their expressions different from those of the others. Meanwhile, Mr. Hasatin stood at the front, his piercing gaze fixed on the two boys as if he could bore into their skulls with his eyes.In seconds, they confidently strode to the entrance of the faculty, capturing the attention of several pairs of watchful eyes. Rumors of their outstanding test score had rapidly spread throughout the university, creating an unmistakable buzz that refused to be ignored, and other students who didn't know who they were exchanged looks of curiosity.“Bro, I think I have become popular!” Jeremiah muttered, panning his eyes at the notifications popping up on his phone screen.

    Test Score

    “Austin,” Mr. Hasatin's voice resonated through the classroom, causing all the students to turn their attention to the front. The air was thick with a mix of anticipation and dread as he scanned his list of names before looking up at the boy, who sat frozen in his seat. Austin's gaze flickered nervously around the room before finally settling on Mr. Hasatin, whose expression was stern yet tinged with disappointment as he continued, “Your test score is 10 out of 100!” The words hung in the air, punctuating the silence and eliciting a wave of murmurs and gasps from the other students. Austin, who was short of words, quickly forced a lump down his throat as the reality of his test score slapped his face. More whispers from other shocked students emerged as they lingered their gaze on the boy who had never missed a class and was regarded as not only Mr. Hasatin’s disciple but the best student of his course. “Oh my God, I can't believe this!” A girl sitting in front of Mason excla
