Scar's mind raced as he sped down the road, the engine's roar a distant hum compared to the storm brewing in his thoughts.

He couldn't shake off Mrs. Martin's words, her smug smile haunting him.

"I need to get answers," he said reminding himself of his condition.

He was starting to find it hard to breathe.

It was as if he was beginning to have a heart attack.

She had sown seeds of doubt, and now they threatened to take root.

No matter how he tried to keep his head straight those words came to the surface and tainted him.

When he got furrowed he groaned.

"Ugh! Fuck." He cursed under his breath as he smashed his head on the wheel.

Thankfully it wasn't a fragile object or else it would have been broken to pieces.

"I need to think," he said to him

He threw his eyes over then was and when he saw an opening he hesitated.

    Her smile sent a chill through the room, a stark contrast to the earlier warmth of the summer breeze."What does that mean?" "Are you trying to say we don't have a choice in this matter?"Mrs Martin had a smile on her face as she glared at them.That was exactly what she was implying.If they didn't want to help her she was going to make them.Thankfully she had drugged up some of their dirty past and she would be able to use it against them.This was to solidify their loyalty.Almer, who had been silent until now, finally spoke up, his voice measured and calm.

    Mr. Almer’s question hung in the air, the weight of it pressing down on everyone in the room. Mrs. Martin’s smile faltered for a moment, but she quickly regained her composure."Do you have a death wish?" Mrs. Martin groaned. "Pardon?"

She groaned then her lips curved up in a smile that made her look like a psychopath."And I can assure you,almer I'll get blood. As much as I can get my hands on and down myself in it."

    Sullivan managed a weak smile, though it did little to mask the turmoil within him. "I feel like it too," he admitted, running a hand through his disheveled hair."Did you even get any sleep."Sullivan turned his eyes lazily at john. "What do you think?""Right." John remarked as he gave a nod. John moved to the counter, pouring himself a cup of coffee before taking a seat across from Sullivan.

But some wounds… some wounds need time, not quick fixes."Sullivan stared into his cup, the steam rising in gentle swirls. "I know that. But I can’t s

    Sullivan’s footsteps echoed hollowly through the grand halls of their home, the weight of the night's events pressing heavily on his shoulders. He had escorted Erica and Evelyn back from the warehouse, but the tension between him and Erica was palpable, a chasm that seemed to widen with each passing second. As soon as they arrived, Erica had avoided his gaze, her body rigid with anger and pain. Sullivan had tried to reach out to her, but she had brushed past him, her eyes cold and distant. Now, he stood outside their bedroom, his heart pounding in his chest.Taking a deep breath, Sullivan pushed the door open and stepped inside.

    Sullivan’s heart pounded as Jason’s voice echoed through the dark, cavernous warehouse. He clenched his fists, every muscle in his body tensed, ready for whatever was to come.“Jason,” Sullivan called out, his voice steady but laced with fury. “Where are they?”A low chuckle reverberated through the space, causing Sullivan’s skin to crawl. He spun around, trying to pinpoint the source of the sound, but the shadows played tricks on his senses. Suddenly, a flicker of light appeared on the far wall, and a hologram of Jason materialized, his cold eyes locking onto Sullivan.“Relax, General,” Jason said with a twisted smile. “They’re alive… for now.”Sullivan took a step forward, his jaw clenched. “I’m not here to play games, Jason. Where are they?”The hologram of Jason tilted his head, amusement flickering in his eyes. “Always so impatient. You know, Sullivan, you should be thanking me. I’ve given you a gift—freedom.”Sullivan narrowed his eyes, his pulse racing. “What are you talking

    Sullivan’s heart skipped a beat as John's words sank in. He stood frozen for a moment, his mind racing to process the information. The unease that had been gnawing at him now turned into full-blown dread."Have you checked everywhere?" Sullivan demanded, his voice sharp with urgency."Have you searched every corner of the house? The garden.""Yes, General," John replied, still catching his breath. "We've searched the entire estate, questioned the staff—no one has seen them since this afternoon. Although I interrogated the maids and they overhead the lady Erica talking about going to a boutique."Sullivan clenched his fists, his mind reeling. Erica and Evelyn wouldn't just disappear. Not without something being wrong. His thoughts quickly turned to Jason. Could this be his move? Was this the beginning of his revenge?"It's going to be her regular. Have you called in to see if they used their cards to pay for any item..""General, they never made their way to the boutique."“Damn it

    Jason sat in his dimly lit office, the heavy silence of the room punctuated only by the ticking of an old clock on the wall. The air was thick with the scent of leather and smoke, mingling with the faint aroma of whiskey from the glass in his hand. He stared down at the liquid, swirling it slowly as he reflected on the event that had brought him here—at the top of the underground empire, feared by those who once looked down on him.With his newfound power and authority, Jason knew he was unstoppable and now it was time to take back everything that was taken from him. He had spent years clawing his way out of the shadows, enduring brutal training, torture, and pain.What made him happiest was that the scar was no more. He always promised to end his life and so he did. He chuckled when he recalled the look of hurt and helplessness on his face. Every step had been a struggle, but now, with power and authority firmly in his grasp, he knew he was unstoppable. It was time to repay th
