"Dennis is in town" Alice said while sitting beside Liam on the couch in Robert's house, a maid came in with a bottle of wine and three cups, she placed a cup in front of the both of them and one opposite them, in front of an empty chair, she poured the red liquid contents of the wine bottle into the two cups placed in front of Liam and Alice, she poured the contents halfway of the wine glass after she saw Robert descending the staircase, she poured the same quantity into the cup that was meant for him also. "He is in town? He made his first move yesterday, I haven't got much time to deal with him, I have the maximum of a week and I can tell that he wants to wrap this up as quick as possible, because he is using the same pattern like he use to get his criminals, I can’t tell if he is toying with me or underestimating, this is the first time that I am confused about someone like this, I never knew that the FBI agents are so cool like this, he must be one of the reasons why they could
“So what is your deal with Dennis?” Lois asked as she served coffee to Robert and Liam who was sitting beside Robert on her couch in her apartment. Robert sipped a little from the coffee and placed it back on the table before him. “Turns out that Dennis is part of the circle of friends that Matt was in and they are plotting a revenge against me for putting one of them into jail” Robert said. “That’s really bad news, the FBI had trouble dealing with him, he was a real pain in the ass, but they couldn’t dispose him as at that moment because he is one of the best detectives that we have—“ Robert cut in, he had come here to learn everything that he can, about this Dennis that was hell bent on bringing him down. “What do you mean by he was a real pain in the ass?” he asked, right now he was behaving like a student in the classroom who was hell bent on learning a particular subject because it was already in a stage of do-or-die. “He likes jumping into other detectives case and solving
Dennis sat on a comfy chair, staring at the television with a glass of champagne in his right hand and his left hand holding the phone to his ear, his legs crossed on the table. He had a smile on his face that brightened his facial features, it was like a different personality had taken over now that he was talking with Lois over the phone. “You called by this time, what is it?” Dennis asked, his face slightly squeezed as he tried to think of what the reason for her phone call might be.“Robert wants to see you at Cramavings restaurant tomorrow by two o’clock at noon” She said suddenly after a while of silence. “Huh? What did he want to see me for, is he asking me out on a date?” Dennis asked her jokingly, pressing his lips into a flat line. “He is not gay, come on” she said with a soft laughter, “he looked serious though” “Was there fear on his face?” Dennis asked in a serious tone. “No, there was no fear on his face, it was once there at first but it seemed to be dead by now,
Robert stretched his right hand, forming the sign as if his hand is on the trigger of an imaginary gun and his left hand was placed beneath his right hand. “Bang” he mouthed the word with a very serious expression on his face, “and bang, you are dead” he said with a cold smile on his face. Dennis had a puzzled expression plastered on his face, he bent his head down to see the place where Robert had pointed his imaginary gun to, there was a red laser beam at his left side chest, directly at the part where the heart is. He could then that there was a sniper around and he looked behind Robert and then to the window side, his gaze moving fast from one of the tall buildings that have a better positioning to take an aim from to another building, he couldn’t get one, there were many building and different positions the sniper could have aimed from. “If I was aiming for you, do you really think I would tell them to target your chest, when there is a high percentage chance of you putting o
Liam pressed his foot on the pedal a little, as he drove through the rough road of the streets of a rural area, dusts had gathered up and filled the area, he took a turn into a corner by his left and stopped at the dead end of the streets. He turned off the engine and got off his car, shutting the door close behind him, he brought out his phone and turned on his phone and enlarged the map on it, he raised his head and looked around to confirm that is at the right street. He looked down at his phone again and after confirming that he is at the right street, he placed his phone in the pocket of his black suit trousers. He walked towards a brown bungalow with black gates, which was open, he pushed it and walk in, he took of his dark shade sunglasses. “Good day sir” he greeted a man who seemed to be in his early sixties, who was sitting in front of the house with what seemed like a bottle of chilled beer which appeared to have been drunk halfway through in his hand. “Yes? Good day to y
Robert sat on his couch with his legs crossed together on one another on a small stool, he was clad on a black singlet and a black shorts, he was going through the files in his hand, his eyes and whole attention glued on what he was reading that he didn’t notice Liam walk in. “Yo man” Liam called and slumped on the chair opposite Robert with a tired sigh, “Been a long day” he muttered under his breath as in bent down to pull off his shoes. “Robert, you hearing what I am saying?” Liam called out with a slight frown on his face. He stood up and walked towards Robert, tapping his legs that was crossed on a stool. Robert pulled down the files from his face and sprung up to his feet quickly, his eyebrow furrowed and drew closer to itself, he scrunched his face up into a frown, after noticing that it was Liam standing opposite him. He relaxed a bit and sat on the chair with a sigh, “What’s up man?” “Jeez! I have been calling you since like forever, what you up to?” Liam asked as he wa
Liam sat on his swivel chair, staring at the wall clock opposite him, watching as time swing by slowly, tapping his fingers on the table, his fingers making a beat sound, he drift off deep to thoughts slowly.Its already been two days already since Robert left and when Liam had swung by the hospital, he had discovered that she was not in her room, the nurses reported that Robert had come to take her to his house, he said he wants her to be receiving treatment in his house, that is the story that Robert had fed him but Liam knew it was all a lie. Robert was nowhere to be found in his house, he had disappeared that day after having that conversation with Liam. Liam had tried calling him severally but it was all to no avail, his line was not even going through at all, it was like he had suddenly disappeared from the face of the earth and there was barely any trace that he even still existed. The past two days had been filled with a lot of events for Liam, first of all it was Robert sud
Robert made a stance against Lucian and Wayde, who also made a stance, Robert charged in against the both of them with insane speed, Wayde and Lucian weren’t matching his speed but they made up for that in their numbers which gave them a slight advantage against him to cover up what they lack compared to him. Upon the advantage they have against Robert, he still didn’t seem to be fazed by it, he faced the challenge head on. He stopped abruptly in his steps as Wayde and Lucian evaded him in the nick of time immediately they saw him approaching them. “Come on, you all really need to stop running and fight me heads on are you both scared?” he said while taking slow steps towards Lucian, Wayde saw the opportunity that Robert was finally open and he dashed forward. “Gotcha” Robert muttered under his breath and with perfect timing he turned back and grabbed Wayde who was running with full speed by the neck and he slammed him on the floor, not taking his eyes off Lucian completely and wa
EPILOGUE A few years have gone by since Robert had defeated Lucian, immediately after he had brought Hazel to rest a bit there and had stepped out, the rest of the clan members have all walked out of their hiding to thank Will for defeating Lucian who had always been a threat to them and had always made them live their lives in fear that he might attack again, but now that he is dead, there is a huge peace of mind finally for all of the clan members and they didn’t fail to show their gratitude to him at all. Robert stood in front of the ceiling to roof glass in his office, staring at the view with his hands buried deep into his pockets, his mind slowly drifts back to the past few years, that very incident, just after he had saved Hazel. "Where are we?" she finally asked the question that had been on her mind for a long while, since she woke up. "Oh! We are at that castle we once came to through one portal, you remember, right?" "Yes" she nodded her head."Anyways, how are you?"
“Well, you are a very dumb guy, you think I can’t use that same, exact powers you just used to destroy Liam” Robert said with a cold smile and look. “I knew that, I took that into consideration and took steps ahead of time, which was poisoning you, au revoir Robert” he said with a dark chuckle. “What—“ Robert coughed out and he covered his mouth, he felt a liquid on his hand, he raised it up to his face and he saw the red liquid on his palm, “fu—fuck” he muttered and fell face flat to the ground. Lucian let out a loud laughter that was filled with so much joy as he made his way to the clan’s head castle and sat on the clan’s head seat while Wayde followed behind him closely and stood beside him as he sat on the chair. His heart danced with joy as his hands ran through the clan’s head chair. “Fuck! It’s all my goddamned fault” Robert sobbed silently with a deep pain in his heart, his body was slowly feeling numb all over, he was losing consciousness, in a matter of a few seconds,
Robert charged towards him and grabbed him by his collar, he raised him up and was about to slam his back on the ground but Damien grabbed his arm and broke free of his grasp and landed on the floor with a slight cough. Robert doesn't look like he was going to stop any moment from now with his continuous attacks, he kept on throwing several punches on Damien which were all becoming successful hits. Surprisingly still, Damien didn't retaliate, he only tried to step up his defense and increase his speed to match with Robert's current one but his body can't keep up again like in the beginning when he had blocked and evaded almost all his attacks successfully due to the impact of the successful attacks. He struggles to stand up from the floor with a groan, he wiped his nose with the back of his nose and stretched his hand forward, “See, I am your mother’s subo—“ Before he could finish his statement or stand properly, Robert charged at him again and gave him a kick from under his bod
Robert returned back to the Dragon clan’s castle, prepared mentally and physically, he had gone to the human world to clear everything that might have been a threat to his upcoming battle, which are the things that might trouble his mind and not make him think straight, he had successfully cleared them off, now the only thing that is on his mind is removing the obstacle that is in between him and getting the cure for his wife.He walked towards where his wife's body was kept along with Wayde and Lucian by his side as they approached the place, all three of them having a hardened expression on their face. Robert kissed her on her forehead, “Keep her somewhere safe that you know she won’t be attacked and put a very powerful barrier that will prevent anyone from entering there, around the place” he said and walked out. The aura radiating around him was so powerful, overwhelming and intimidating, he walked towards the weapons room and took out a long, curved sword, that he heard that hi
Robert stepped into the portal and sat on the couch with a tired sigh. He stood up back and went into his wine cellar, he picked out a new wine and pick out a glass cup on his way to the sitting room. He sat on the couch and poured the wine into the glass cup. He picked up the wine glass, looking at the red liquid, it was like he was about to puke because of the resemblance of the red liquid content from the bottle to the blood of a human. He dropped the wine on the table in front of him and sat back on the chair, he pulled out the phone from his pocket and dialed a number, placing it in his ear, the sound of the line ringing was the only sound that could be heard in the sitting room. The phone was picked and Alice's voice came in. "Hello sir' she said with a bit of excitement in her voice. "Liam said you went on a vacation, that is the major reason why you couldn't be reached during the past few days, is it true sir? I don't quite believe that man" she said with a slight chuckle.
Liam sat on a swivel chair in the board meeting room with his back turned towards the entrance, his face could not be seen from any angle, apart from the front, it was only his back that could be seen. He heard when the door was being pushed open and when it was locked, the person that brought in Dennis was dismissed with his hand. “Have your seat” he said without looking back. He turned the swivel chair around and faced Dennis with a grin on his face. “Here is your anonymous caller” he said, stretching his hands apart with a smirk on his face. The surprised look on Dennis face just made the smile to widen the more. “Wait, is this a joke, you are telling me that I lost to you” he said, pointing his fingers to Liam with a shocked look on his face that didn’t seem like it was going to be wiped off any moment from now at all. “Well, I am sure that you didn’t expect to lose to someone like me, I am one of his secret trump card who just seem to have a thinking of my own and can make
"If you want to continue this game of yours, then I am ready" Dennis said with a devilish smile on his face, his finger was hooked in the hole of a knife, which he twirls playfully around his fingers. A switch was on his other hand and a mask was on his face. He sat on a desk in an empty room staring at Carlton who was sitting on a chair with his hands tied behind it. "Ain't playing games man, I already told you times without number" Carlton answered shakily. "If you don't admit your crime, then I will have no other choice than to press this switch in my hand and you know what happens when I do" Dennis raised the switch up in the air to show him clearly, he waved it at him. "Don't involve my family in this shitty game of yours, you bastard!" Carlton yelled at him furiously, jerking the chair and trying to break free off it, not minding the pain that he was feeling as he dragged his hand apart but it was all to no avail. "I can also sit here and watch your futile effort to bre
Robert walked towards Lucian and Wayde all covered in blood, from the crown of his head to the sole of his feet, even his shirt glued to his shirt and the sight looked quite scary to look at, the aura radiating around him was scary and overwhelming also. The look on his face was cold and void of emotions, his eyes was dark, he looked like the complete monster himself while walking towards Lucian, and his aura had changed completely. “Fuck!” Lucian muttered underneath his breath as he stared around, from the wall that was covered with blood and guts spilled on it, bodies with incomplete limbs, to the ground that was bathed in blood also. It was such a scary and disgusting sight to behold, the heavy stench of blood filled the whole passageway. He raised his finger and pointed at Lucian, who looked a bit shaken immediately he saw the hand being raised towards him, "make preparations, we are attacking them in a few days, I am not holding back again, the more I stay, the more I get atta
