Jason's father crossed his legs firmly and was in a bathrobe as he waited for her to come closer to meet him. "Where did you go to," he said making her sit on his lap. Her searched her face with concern as he reached over to caress her face. "This works what was it about that got my baby all worked up."Mrs. Martin smiled to herself because she knew that if he was aware of what she was planning they wouldn't be having this conversation."Just some stuff at the office." She lied."You look pale, have you eaten?" He asked with concern. "Not yet. Since you are here now I don't have to be pale anymore." She exhaled as she hugged him tightly. Then her face dulled up in a frown when he couldn't see her face. "Common let me feed you." He said gesturing at the food he prepared specifically for them. She feigned as if she was angry then she stood up from his lap abruptly. Jason's father was worried and he followed her with concern."What's wrong ?" He asked."What's wrong?" She scoffed

Mrs. Martin's back was still turned to him, her voice dropping to a venomous whisper.She clenched her fist and swallowed hard, feeling sorry for the choice she had to make because of his inability to choose wisely. “So, you’re choosing them over me and our son again?”She said turning to him with fire in her eyes."You have failed me again, countless times over the years and I thought maybe. Just maybe you do right by me but it was only my wishful thinking."Jason's father exhaled.He didn't mean to hurt her but he just couldn't let this much power go.His wife had something she didn't possess and he couldn't risk his future based on feelings and emotions but that didn't mean he didn't want to keep her by his side.His face contorted with frustration. “It’s not that simple. If I do what you are asking of me. it will spark a war among the families. You know the balance of power is delicate. One wrong move and everything could collapse.”"Again with the petty excuse bog keeping balanc

"I'm sorry for treating you this way. It wasn't my intention." Jason's father pleaded. Mrs. Martin smiled as she held his hands against her face and used her cheeks to caress against her palm. Truly a woman's tears are her biggest weapon. She never knew that they would be so effective.Now all she had to do was lead him on and he was not going to see the blow when it finally hit him.All these years he took her for a fool and the price of it was her family.His hands moved further from her face and rolled down her neck."You know I care about you, right ". His eyes searched hers.Mrs. Martins's lips curved into a smile as she nodded weakly.His love for her was the weapon she was going to use to fight against him."I know you do." "That's why I love you."Jason's father looked relieved as he heard her words. He gently pulled her closer, his eyes softening with a mixture of guilt and longing. "We can start over, you know," he whispered, his voice trembling slightly. "We can put t

Mrs. Martin leaned back in the tub, the warm water soothing her tense muscles as she closed her eyes and let the petals float around her. She inhaled deeply, letting the subtle fragrance calm her nerves while her mind plotted her next move. She couldn’t afford any mistakes now; everything had to be perfectly executed.After a long soak, she dried herself off and slipped into a silk robe. She stared at her reflection in the mirror, practicing the sweet, innocent smile that had fooled Jason’s father so easily. It was almost amusing how gullible he was, but she had to remember that underestimating him could be a costly mistake.She stepped out of the bathroom to find Jason’s father setting the table for dinner. The aroma of freshly prepared dishes filled the room, and she put on her best smile as she approached him.“Smells wonderful,” she said, wrapping her arms around his waist from behind. “You always know how to spoil me.”He turned and kissed her forehead, his eyes filled with

Sullivan entered the room quietly, carrying a tray laden with fresh berries and delicate pastries. The early morning sunlight streamed in through the windows, casting a warm glow over Erica as she sat in contemplation. His footsteps were soft, but she turned to him immediately, sensing his presence."Good morning, my love," he greeted her with a smile, placing the tray on the bedside table."Morning," she replied, her eyes softening at the sight of him. Her eyes wrinkled when she saw the tray of fruits "What's all this?" She asked with surprise."A little breakfast to start your day right," he said, sitting beside her and picking up a plump berry. He held it to her lips, and she accepted it with a smile."I want my beautiful wife to start her day with sweetness just like this fruit.""Hmm, this is so sweet." She remarked, munching on the fruit.As they continued to eat, Sullivan brought up the topic of the five great families. "John will be accompanying me into the city today. W

John chuckled, shaking his head."Who told you I am jealous." He rolled his eyes.John's face flattered and he rolled his eyes."Your face tells it all.""She just wanted to make sure I keep you safe, General. Nothing to be jealous about."Sullivan's expression softened, and he nodded. "She's always looking out for everyone. Let's go."They boarded the helicopter, the sound of the rotors growing louder as they prepared for takeoff. John glanced back one last time at the mansion, his thoughts lingering on Erica his darling wife.****Back at the mansion, Erica couldn't shake her worry. She paced the living room, her mind racing with thoughts of Sullivan and the danger he was walking into.He wanted to be there for him but she was going to be a barrier.Finally, she decided to check on Evelyn.John said she was sick and she hadn't stepped out of her room since morning.She knocked on Evelyn's door, waiting for a response."Come in," came the faint reply.Erica entered, finding Evelyn

Erica frowned, trying to recall the path they had taken. "I think it was... this way?" She pointed toward a narrow trail that seemed familiar.They started walking, but after a few minutes, Erica stopped, her confidence wavering. "I'm not sure this is the right way.""What are you being serious about, we have been walking through this path for some minutes." Evelyn's eyes shot wide open."That's even if it's not up to an hour." She remarked."Oh, why I'm sorry." Erica snapped "But the last time I remembered I was not the only one who took the route that led is here.""Since you are so smart and you want to ruin your mouth. How about you tell us where to go next.""Don't even try to put this on me," Evelyn warned she said, averting Erica's gaze because she was also guilty."Don't try to put this on me," Evelyn warned, averting Erica's gaze because she felt equally guilty for not paying attention. "I'm not putting this on you. I'm just saying we need to work together to figure this ou

"What do you mean she's nowhere to be found." Sullivan groaned. John raised a brow watching the general. He wondered what could be happening that could make him so worried. Sullivan's eyes dilated as he turned to John hurriedly. "Are you certain you checked the house?" Sullivan asked."We did and she's not in her room or anywhere in the House. " The voice said."Although we found traces of fresh traces leaving the house and it seems like it was more than one person."Sullivan ran his hand over his head.Instantly regretting his decision to leave the house with his wife.His mind suddenly flashed to Evelyn Kai and his eyes darkened in rage.Given her past betrayal, it could be that she had kidnapped his wife.He clenched his fist wondering what kind of fool he was forever trusting her.Sullivan clenched his jaw, trying to keep his voice steady but he could feel the panic that was rising with him.John who could hear the conversation just waited for the general to finish speaking t

The doctor rushed in, concern etched on his face. "What's happening?" he asked, immediately assessing Erica's condition."She's bleeding," Sullivan replied, his voice tight with worry.The doctor quickly examined Erica, his face grave. "We need to run some tests," he said, calling for a nurse to assist.Erica's heart raced as she lay on the hospital bed, her mind racing with worst-case scenarios. She had thought she was past the age of motherhood, and now... now she might lose the baby.The doctor returned with a warm smile. "Erica, you're pregnant. And not just with one baby, but twins."Erica's eyes widened in shock, followed by a wave of joy. She was going to be a mother!But her happiness was short-lived as she remembered Evelyn's condition. Her best friend, who had just lost the love of her life, was also pregnant and alone.The doctor's expression turned serious. "Erica, you need to take it easy.

Sullivan's steps were heavy as he trudged back home, his once resolute demeanor now burdened by the weight of the night’s events. The adrenaline that had fueled him through the mission had long since faded, replaced by a hollow emptiness that gnawed at his chest. His uniform, stained with the blood of battle, felt suffocating as he reached the front door of his home. The moment the door creaked open, Evelyn appeared, her face lighting up with relief at the sight of her father. Behind her, Erica emerged, her eyes scanning Sullivan's expression with concern. But as Evelyn took in her father's sullen face, her heart skipped a beat. She looked past him, her brow furrowing in confusion."Where’s John?" Evelyn asked, her voice tinged with worry. Sullivan's eyes met hers, and for a moment, he couldn’t find the words. His silence was all the answer Evelyn needed. "We met some resistance and John used his life to save mine. " Sullivan broke into tears. All things came with a price but t

Jason's cold smile lingered as he took a step back, his eyes scanning the room, daring anyone to defy him. Mrs. Martin glared at him, her jaw clenched in anger, but she remained silent. The tension in the room was palpable, every breath heavy with unspoken threats and unresolved conflicts. Jason had them all where he wanted—on edge, fearful, and uncertain.Before anyone could muster a response, Jason turned on his heel and strode out of the chamber, his men following closely behind. As the heavy doors slammed shut behind him, the room erupted once more into chaotic whispers and accusations. But their words meant nothing to Jason now. The seeds of discord had been planted, and it was only a matter of time before they bore fruit.*****John approached Sullivan’s study with deliberate steps, his heart racing with the urgency of the situation. He knew that the council's infighting had reached its peak and that Sullivan, the Dragon General, would be ready to act. Knocking briefly, Joh

The room had barely settled into a sense of uneasy calm when the doors to the council's meeting chamber burst open. "Jason has gone wrong and we need to put him down." Mrs.Martin yelled. "You of all people should know that he's not a force to be reckoned with. " Jason's father yelled. "You are no longer the head of this council so don't give oders." Mrs. Martin snapped. "But as a member i have a right to speak." He shot quickly. His face was clenched in anger because he still couldn't believe she did this to him. Ever since he stepped down from his position, his family has not been peaceful plus the death of his grandfather made his wife on a rampage. "Speak when you are needed."She shunned then she turned her gaze to the council. "We need to deal with Jason before he destroys the city and everything in it. " She said firmly. "What do you suggest we do then. "Mr almer asked."What can we possibly do? "Mr smith rolled his eyes."He's a child. "Mrs.martin groaned. "A child th

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. The silence between them was heavy, laden with unspoken worries and unaddressed fears.After a long sip of his coffee, John finally spoke. "I take it things didn’t go well with Erica?"Sullivan sighed deeply, his shoulders slumping. "No, they didn’t. She’s so hurt, John. I don’t know how to fix this."John nodded thoughtfully, his gaze steady and he sighed before he slouch on the couch. "You’ve always been good at fixing things, 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. Erica was by the window, her back to him as she stared out into the night. The silence between them was suffocating.“Erica…” Sullivan began, his voice low and tentative.She didn’t turn around. “I don’t want to hear it, Sullivan,” she said, her voice cold and firm.“Please,” he implored, stepping closer. “Just let me explain. I was trying to protect you. I

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
