Sullivan's eyes narrowed, his mind racing with worst-case scenarios.

The way Mr William hesitated to speak even made him more worried.

"Is there something wrong with her?" Sullivan asked.

"General lady Erica.." William's voice broke down.

"What is it, William? What's going on with Erica?" Sullivan asked again, he could feel his patience slipping away from his fingertips.

Mr. William hesitated, his expression grim.

"We couldn't reach, lady Erica, General. She's not answering her phone, and her car was found wrecked on the side of the road...."

Sullivan's grip on John's arm tightened, his heart racing with fear.

"Are you certain? Does the car belong to her?"

"Yes general, we have confirmed and indeed the car belongs to Lady Erica." Me William replied.

"What!" Sullivan yelled.

He couldn't believe his ears at this point. He just saw Erica a few minutes ago and now she was nowhere to be found.

He immediately regretted his decision to leave her behind.

"We have to find her," Sullivan said.

The voice said.Flint drove his car from the garage as he hummed happily.A man dressed in all black strode into the hospital.He wore a face mask that covered half of his face.When Sullivan's men saw his appearance they became guarded as they watched him with suspicions "Hey, you can't go in there!" one of Sullivan's men shouted, stepping forward to block the masked man's path.The masked man narrowed his eyes at the men In front of him and he tried to move forward but Sullivan's men pushed him back "Get out of my way," the masked man growled, his voice low and menacing."No, you're not authorized to enter this room," another guard chimed in, crossing his arms over his chest."Mr please leave or else you might not live to see the next sunrise."

    Evelyn stepped out of her car as she closed the door behind her.She tossed the keys to one of her guards as she walked towards the entrance.When she opened the door to her room she realized that the lights were switched off.This was weird because she liked the lights to be on and the servants were aware of this.She was already planning on yelling at the maids when he felt a cold metal pressed on the side of her head and she felt a lump in her throat.The lights went on and she was greeted by the presence of the person she despised the most."Let me go," Evelyn warned."Hello, love."Jason chuckled."You bastard." Evelyn grouted."There's no need for hostility sweetheart," Jason smirked."You have a gun to my head. I think you're the one with hostility here." Evelyn scoffed."Why are you here?" Evelyn exhaled.Jason laughed the removed the gun that he pointed to her head."We are not Barbarians so let's talk like civil people," Jason said as he slowly drew out a chair from the table

    "Are you out of your mind?" Evelyn yelled. Jason smirked as he watched her frightened expression. "You could have killed me," Evelyn yelled again, her heart was panting heavily with fear. "Keep running your mouth and I won't miss it deliberately next time," Jason smirked. Evelyn glared at him with anger. She despises that he had the upper hand in this case but she had to play it smart or she could end up being dead. "Good," Jason remarked when he noticed she had stopped blabbing her mouth. "Now let's pick off from where we left off because the last time I called you hung up on me," Jason said. Evelyn clenched her fist to suppress the anger that was beginning to overwhelm her. All her life she had been shackled to people that always wanted to use her and it was beginning to get on her nerves. "What do you want Jason," Evelyn asked. "I need you to help me find the gold Oliver Stone is keeping. I believe it's either in his house or the great dragon general has already found it

    Sullivan was still at the hospital with the doctor who was trying to revive Erica.He started pacing about the room with his hands in his pocket in an attempt to calm himself."General your presence is distracting my work. Can you please leave?" The doctor said.Sullivan's blood was boiling. He wanted to protest and be stubborn because he didn't want to let Erica out of his sight."I'll be outside," Sullivan said with a disapproving frown as he marched outside.Sullivan went outside then he leaned on the side of the door.His eyes caught sight of the blood that the janitors were trying to mop from the ground.He exhaled with exhaustion.He lost one of his men, John was still unconscious and Erica's life was hanging on a thread.The only thing stopping him from bursting into tears was the fact that he was the dragon general, besides crying was not going to solve the problem.When he heard the door flung open he quickly rushed to meet the doctor.He noticed that the doctor had a somber

    "Really," Erica asked feeling very surprised. The last thing she remembered was when the masked man knocked her unconscious so he might have come to save her. "Where is he then?" Erica asked. "He ran off before I got the chance to hold him down." Sullivan lied. The doctor sighed as he shook his head. He couldn't fathom why the general would lie to his wife about her medical condition.He concluded that it was probably the best that she didn't know."I'll leave both of you to your discussion. I'll send the nurses to administer the treatment." The doctor said with a smile."Thank you, doctor," Erica said with joy.Before the doctor left he gave a nod and Sullivan did the same."What about John?" Erica asked hurriedly."I haven't gotten any calls from William," Sullivan replied.Sullivan noticed Erica was tensed up but he gently placed a hand over hers."But don't worry too much John is going to be fine," Sullivan assured her."Thank you," Erica replied with a smile then she hugged h

    "Flint Martin?" Sullivan raised a brow at John."Yes, General," John replied confidently."Are you sure this video was from yesterday's surveillance cameras?" Sullivan asked."Yes General," John said.Sullivan, John, and William gathered around the tablet, their eyes fixed on the image of Flint Martin. The tension in the room was palpable as they tried to unravel the mystery surrounding the young man.Everyone's mind racing with different possibilities and opinions."Since he's the son of Mrs. Martin, one of the members of the five great families," William pointed out, his voice laced with suspicion. "He's probably working with them, General."John nodded in affirmation.It was as if Mr William spoke exactly what was on his mind.Sullivan's expression was skeptical, his eyes narrowing as he considered the possibility. This was possible but most members of the five great families do not allow their children to indulge in whatever activities they did.Some of them even preferred leavi

    "What do you want from me?" Martin groaned. "It's simple, I want you to suffer and pay for what you did to my family," Sullivan replied. "I didn't do anything," Flint replied. "Even in this situation, you still dare to deny the truth," Sullivan smirked. He goes over to a coach and makes himself comfortable. "People that lie to me do not live to see the next sunrise. I'm going to have to punish you even further." Sullivan said narrowing his eyes to the figure before him."I'm not afraid of you," Flint said."But you should be, I can do things to you and you will pray for death to take you," Sullivan said.Sullivan turns to John with a stern gaze."He's a stubborn one, I'll give him that," Sullivan said, his eyes gleaming with amusement then returned to Flint. "But it won't matter soon. You'll be begging for mercy before the end." "I'll never beg you for anything." Flint's eyes flashed with defiance. "We'll see about that." Sullivan chuckled.He had a wonderful seems of torture

Jason's father said.Jason's parents noticed her expression was sober."Emily, what's wrong?" Jason's mother asked, noticing her distress. "You look like you've lost your last breath. Are you okay?"Jason's mother noticed that she wasn't with her son. It was unusual because whenever she visited them she always came with Flint."Where is Flint?"

    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.

    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.

    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
