The butler's face turned crimson with rage as he yelled at Gabriel. "You want to go against me, the butler of the great Springfield family?"

Gabriel stood his ground, unfazed. "With all due respect, you shouldn't have taken sides with the wrong ones. Regardless, I'm not going to budge." He turned his glare towards Brock. "Brock made me gamble with him. He lost and now he's offering me half of the 6 billion to let go, as if I look petty. I won't stand for it."

The butler's eyes narrowed. "You don't understand who you're dealing with. The Springfield family is powerful. We can ruin you."

Gabriel didn’t flinch. "I'm not afraid of your threats."

The butler pointed a gnarled finger at Gabriel. "You dare defy me? The Springfields have ruled this city for generations!”

Gabriel met the butler's gaze evenly. "I'm not looking to start a war with the Springfield family. But I won't be messed with, either."

He turned to Brock, who was shrinking back, his father's iron grip on his arm. "Brock, yo

    The butler turned to Jackson, his expression resolute. "Your son, Brock, has incurred the debt. He has to clear it."Jackson furrowed his brows, suspicion flickering in his eyes. "Have you lost your mind? Has Gabriel charmed you or something?"The butler shook his head firmly. "No, Mr. Springfield. This is about doing what’s right. Brock made the bet, and now he must face the consequences."Jackson started to protest, but the butler raised a hand to stop him. "Enough, sir. It’s time to settle this matter properly. You should just write an IOU since you don't have the money now to pay."With reluctant agreement, Jackson turned to Gabriel. "Fine. I will write an IOU."The butler produced a piece of paper and a pen, handing them to Jackson. The room watched in hushed anticipation as Jackson scribbled down the details, each stroke of the pen a testament to his frustration and resignation. He handed the IOU to Gabriel, his expression a mixture of anger and defeat.Gabriel took the paper, h

    Gabriel was about to drive away when he got another call. Seeing it was from Mr. Mac, he exhaled and cleared his voice before answering."Hello, Mr. Mac.""Gabriel, I need you to go to The Opulent Lounge," Mr. Mac said without preamble.Gabriel recognized the name immediately. "The Opulent Lounge? The high-end club in the city?""Yes, that’s the one," Mr. Mac confirmed. "It’s one of my clubs, and right now, only esteemed guests and relatives are there to celebrate the post-birthday festivities for the patriarch of the Springfield family."Gabriel nodded, even though Mr. Mac couldn’t see him. He remained silent, contemplating his next move."Please, Gabriel," Mr. Mac pressed, sensing his hesitation. "I would really appreciate it if you could join us."Gabriel hesitated. "I really need to go home. There are things I need to settle."Mr. Mac's tone softened. "Is this because I didn’t welcome you personally at the banquet? If so, I apologize. It was an oversight on my part."Gabriel shook

    Gabriel took a step closer, his voice low and menacing. "I’m done with your threats. Now, either let me in, or you’ll be joining your guards on the ground."At that moment, Zendaya, Mr. Mac's younger brother's daughter, whom Gabriel had met earlier at the hotel, stepped out of the club and saw the security guards wriggling in pain on the floor. She shot a glare at Gabriel as she approached him."What's the meaning of this?" Zendaya demanded, her eyes blazing."They tried to throw me out," Gabriel replied sharply, dusting his palms. She chuckled darkly. "Seems like you've just purchased a load of trouble."Jackson, feeling emboldened, stepped up behind her. "Young miss, this man caused a nuisance."The butler chimed in. "Miss Zendaya, he went against me."Zendaya silenced them with a wave of her hand and sneered at Gabriel. "You’re done for. Do you even know who you’re dealing with?"Gabriel stood gallantly, asking softly, "And who might you be?"She smirked and introduced herself. "I

    Anna turned back to Gabriel, her tone softening. "Please, come inside. My father is eager to meet you."Gabriel nodded, the tension in his posture easing. "Thank you, Anna."As he took a step forward, Gabriel stopped. "Anna, the butler needs to be punished for his disrespect."Anna's face hardened. "I agree. I will handle it right now." She reached for her phone, ready to call her father, but a voice interrupted her."What's going on here?" Chris, her elder brother and heir of the Springfield family, strode forward, his presence commanding immediate attention."Chris," Anna started, "there was a misunderstanding, and—"The butler, seizing the moment, interjected, “Young master Chris, this man—Gabriel—caused a commotion. He disrespected us and assaulted our guards."Chris's eyes narrowed. "Is that so?"Gabriel, maintaining his composure, said, "Your butler and guards attacked me first. I was invited here by Mr. Mac, and I expect to be treated with respect."Chris sneered. "Invited or n

    Mr. Mac shifted slightly. "I had some urgent matters to attend to, but I made sure my daughter, Anna, went to welcome him."Master Chen nodded, a hint of approval in his eyes. "That was the right thing to do. The young man is remarkable, beyond his age. I am eager to meet him."Mr. Mac smiled, though still feeling uneasy. "I'm sure you will be impressed by his presence, Master Chen."Master Chen's gaze softened as he looked around the opulent surroundings. "Greatness often hides in the most unexpected places. A true master recognizes potential, regardless of its guise."Mr. Mac nodded, feeling the weight of Master Chen's words. "Indeed, Master Chen. Gabriel's potential is undeniable."Master Chen placed a hand on Mr. Mac's shoulder, his voice carrying a tone of finality. "Let us go inside and see how the evening unfolds. I have a feeling tonight will be quite revealing."As they moved further into the lounge, the celebratory atmosphere seemed to pause, sensing the presence of the rever

    Mr. Mac took a step forward, staring at Anna in disbelief. “What did you just say Chris did?"Anna flicked a gaze at Chris and repeated. "He ordered for Gabriel to be thrown away and Gabriel angrily left." Mr. Mac's face darkened with anger as Anna reluctantly confirmed Chris's actions. His disappointment in his son was palpable as he took a step closer to Chris, his voice laced with fury."You did what?" Mr. Mac's voice boomed, echoing in the quiet corners of the club. "I told you to welcome our guest, not drive him away!"Chris, unrepentant, crossed his arms defiantly. "Father, he was nothing but a troublemaker. I did what I thought was best for our family's reputation," he retorted, his tone defensive.A thunderous slap from Mr. Mac landed on Chris' cheek as he silenced him."Shut up!” Mr . Mac's eyes narrowed, his disappointment turning into frustration. "You've embarrassed us," he chided sharply. "You judged him by his appearance alone, without understanding who he truly is."C

    As Gabriel drove away from the Opulent Lounge, his phone buzzed with Mr. Mac's incoming call."Gabriel, where are you?" Mr. Mac's voice sounded urgent yet apologetic.Gabriel hesitated for a moment before replying, "I'm not far. Just heading home."Mr. Mac didn't waste a second. "Wait there. I'm coming to you."True to his word, Mr. Mac arrived swiftly in his luxury sedan. Stepping out, he approached Gabriel with a solemn expression."I'm truly sorry for what Chris did," Mr. Mac began, his tone sincere. "That was uncalled for. Please, come back with me to the club. Let's make things right."Gabriel looked at Mr. Mac, weighing his words carefully. "I don't want to go where I'm not respected."Mr. Mac nodded, understanding. "I know you're upset, and you have every right to be. But I assure you, things will be different. Master Chen himself wants you to be there. It would mean a lot."Gabriel remained silent for a moment, contemplating his decision. Finally, he sighed softly. "Fine. But

    The butler, simmering with jealousy, couldn't bear the special treatment Gabriel was receiving. Deciding to take matters into his own hands, he cleared his throat loudly, drawing the attention of the gathered guests."Ladies and gentlemen," the butler began, his voice dripping with disdain, "I must question the integrity of this young man, Gabriel. Do we really know who he is? From what I can tell, he's just an opportunist who’s managed to worm his way into the good graces of the Springfield family."Gasps echoed through the crowd, and all eyes turned towards Gabriel. He stood there, unflinching, his eyes locked on the butler."Look at him!" the butler continued, pointing a finger at Gabriel. "He’s probably using deceitful means to get close to our respected Master Chen and Mr. Mac. We can't let such a charlatan roam freely among us!"The guests murmured among themselves, uncertainty rippling through the room. Jackson, seeing an opportunity, nodded in agreement, adding fuel to the but

    The day of Camella’s delivery was a difficult one. The air was thick with tension, and Gabriel paced the hospital corridor, his face lined with worry. His heart pounded each time he heard footsteps approach, hoping for news. Dan stood beside him, trying his best to calm him down."She's strong, Gabriel. She'll get through this," Dan said, placing a hand on his shoulder. Zoe nodded in support. "Remember how well she did with Jessie? She can do it again."Gabriel nodded but his eyes were distant, full of concern. "I know, but this is different. The doctors said there were complications. It wasn’t like this with Jessie."Dan sighed. "Sometimes things don’t go as planned, but she’s in good hands. You have to trust that."Time dragged on, each minute feeling like an hour. Then, finally, the door to the delivery room opened, and the doctor emerged. His expression was serious, almost grave, and Gabriel's heart sank."Doctor, is she okay? Is the baby okay?" Gabriel asked, his voice almost bre

    Gabriel's return was like a sudden burst of light piercing through the darkness that had settled in the room where his body was laid before he left, making his way downstairs. His family had been sitting in silence in the living room, weighed down by a sense of gloom, each lost in their thoughts when his voice echoed softly from the doorway."I'm back," Gabriel said, his tone gentle but firm, as though those two words were enough to bring peace to the chaos that had lingered. Everyone's heads snapped up, eyes widening in disbelief. Camella was the first to react, tears spilling down her cheeks as she rushed toward him. "Gabriel! You're...you're here!" she choked out, wrapping her arms around him tightly. "Yes, I'm here," he whispered, holding her close. "I’m back, and everything is going to be alright." Soon, the others joined in, surrounding him, their faces a mix of relief, joy, and astonishment. Marie, his mother, was tearful as she cupped his face, studying him as if she couldn

    Gabriel’s eyes remained steady as he faced Thelma. Her expression was tense, eyes flickering with a mix of urgency and despair. She had tried reasoning with him, threatening him, yet he stood firm, his gaze unwavering. “Gabriel, this is the last chance you’d get. Forever,” Thelma's voice trembled, but it was clear she meant every word.Gabriel let out a slow breath. “Let it be so. Please, go save your mother. She doesn’t deserve to die at my expense.”Thelma blinked as if she hadn’t expected such calmness. Her eyes, filled with confusion, fixed on him. “The life is ebbing from you,” she said, stepping closer. “And my mother… for her to be restored, she needs the magical ring you’re putting on.” Gabriel glanced down at the ring, a simple yet powerful artifact, now glinting in the dim light. He looked back up at her, his lips curling into a sad smile. Without a word, he slowly slid the ring off his finger and held it out to her. “You can use it to save her.”Thelma was stunned. “Are y

    In the dimly lit hall of Noctura, Seraphina’s laughter echoed against the stone walls, her eyes gleaming with a sadistic delight. Gabriel stirred, groaning as he slowly regained consciousness. His eyes fluttered open, adjusting to the sight before him—Seraphina, standing there with a mocking grin, her shoulders shaking with laughter.“Why are you laughing?” he asked, his voice hoarse, barely masking his confusion. “Do I look amusing to you, lying here wrecked like this?”“Not really,” Seraphina replied, her lips curling. “Actually, I played a little trick earlier, and it seems to be working. I can hear the cries echoing all around. They’re devastated… those weak humans.”Gabriel frowned, trying to process her words. “What do you mean?”She stepped closer, her dark eyes glinting as she leaned down, speaking in a low, deliberate tone. “I gave you a claim mark,” she said, her fingers lightly brushing his arm. “It’s imprinted right there, on your skin.”Gabriel’s eyes widened as he looked

    Gabriel was thrown back into his dark, cold cell, his body bruised and battered. The guards had shown no mercy, following Queen Seraphina's orders to the letter. They took turns flogging him, their harsh laughter echoing off the stone walls. He had barely any strength left, yet he forced himself to stay conscious, unwilling to give them the satisfaction of seeing him break. After the beatings, they chained him up, suspending his arms so he couldn’t lie down. The heavy chains cut into his wrists, but he bit down hard, swallowing his pain. As if that wasn’t enough, cold water was splashed on him, drenching him, making the chill seep deep into his bones. It was all part of the queen’s relentless torment. Meanwhile, Thelma watched from the shadows, her heart aching. Her mother’s cruelty had gone too far. But she had been powerless to stop it, her powers restricted under strict orders from Seraphina. She clenched her fists, unable to bear seeing Gabriel in this condition any longer. Gath

    Thelma stood there, her gaze fixed on Gabriel, her eyes shimmering with a mixture of determination and longing. Gabriel, shackled and weary, looked up, confused. "Why are you here, Thelma?" he asked, his voice rough from exhaustion.Thelma hesitated for a moment, then spoke softly, "Why? Do I need a reason?""Yes," Gabriel replied, his eyes narrowing. "Answer that. I'm sure your queen won't want you to be here.""Yes, my mother would be furious," Thelma admitted, her voice barely a whisper. "But I don't care. I just care about you."Gabriel's expression softened, but he was still cautious. "What?""Yes," she said, her eyes shining. "I care about you and... I want you to marry me."Gabriel's eyes widened, disbelief written all over his face. "Marry you?"Thelma took a step closer, her gaze unflinching. "Yes. Marry me. I can help you." He stared at her silently, trying to read her intentions, but she continued, her voice pleading. "I promise you, Gabriel, if you marry me, I can vouch t

I didn’t know," she said, barely able to process what Tamara was saying.Camella, though lost in her own world of grief, heard Tamara’s last words and turned, her eyes wide with horror. “What are you saying?” she whispered, her lips trembling. “Someone has to die... for him to wake up?”Tamara hesitated, seeing the fear in Camella's eyes. "I wish it wasn't true, but... yes. That’s how it works. It’s a cruel trade," she said softly, her own voice betraying her sadness.Camella felt the room spin for a moment, her heart pounding. She looked at Gabriel, her lips quivering as she whispered, “No... there has to be another way. There has to be.”Zoe moved closer to Tamara, her mind reeling from the revelation. “Is there really no other way?” she asked, almost pleading."I've searched, Zoe," Tamara said, shaking her head.

    Gabriel stood there, his breath heavy, the dark silhouette of the creature looming over him. It was unlike anything he had ever seen—a twisted mix of shadows and fangs, with eyes that seemed to glint even in the darkness. His heart pounded as he gripped the hilt of an available sword tighter, the sweat from his palms making it slick. He knew he had to act fast, but the creature’s movements were unpredictable, darting around him, taunting him.“Come on,” he muttered to himself, trying to steady his breathing. “Just one opening… that’s all I need.”The creature lunged, and he sidestepped, narrowly avoiding its sharp claws. The air was thick, almost suffocating, and his muscles ached from the strain of dodging and countering. He swung his sword, managing to nick the creature’s side, but it only hissed, unfazed, and retreated into the shadows. The brief moment of reprieve was shattered when he heard the snorting and stomping behind him. Turning, he saw the massive bull charging toward him

For every machine that attacked, he countered with swift, brutal precision, his eyes glowing brighter with every strike.As he stood amidst the shattered remains of the machines, his chest heaving, he heard Seraphina’s voice echo through the realm. “Impressive, Gabriel. But this is only the beginning. You will break, and you will serve me… or you will die.”Gabriel looked around, wiping the sweat from his brow, his breath ragged but steady. “I’ll never be yours,” he shouted defiantly, his voice echoing through the dark, empty expanse of Noctura. “I will find a way out of this place, and I will destroy everything you throw at me.”Seraphina's laughter echoed, dark and mocking. “We shall see, Gabriel. We shall see.”As the darkness around him deepened, Gabriel steeled himself, knowing that this was only the b
