Gabriel glanced at Anna and noticed her almost stumbling as her expression turned sour upon gazing at Addison.

Master Duon ridiculed Master Chen. "Is this the legacy you’ve built, Chen? Disciples who can't stand up to a real challenge?"

Addison loudly stated, "Now I believe I’ve won a great bride."

Anna's face flushed with anger and frustration. Gabriel, sensing her turmoil, remained calm, knowing that the battle wasn't truly over yet.

Anna managed to reach her grandfather, her voice trembling. "Grandfather, I really don't want to marry Addison."

Master Chen comforted Anna, his tone gentle but firm. "Don't worry, Anna. I won’t agree to marry you off to him."

Recalling Gabriel’s words, Anna suggested, "Why not let Gabriel fight? I believe he can win."

Master Chen looked taken aback, glancing in Gabriel's direction. "Gabriel? He is our guest, Anna. What if he is defeated?"

She insisted, "Sung Do will defeat me in a minute, judging by how he took down the others. But my instinct tells m

    Master Chen arose from his seat and approached Gabriel. "Thank you, Gabriel. You’ve shown extraordinary skill and honor tonight."Mr. Mac nodded in agreement. "We doubted you earlier, and for that, we apologize."Gabriel shrugged, a small smile playing on his lips. "No harm done."Mr. Mac continued, "I have to say, if you were my son-in-law, I would consider myself very fortunate."Zendaya coughed, trying to draw attention. "Well, I think someone like Gabriel needs a partner who is more... feminine. Someone who can match his presence." Her eyes flicked towards Anna, her comment a thinly veiled jab.Gabriel, however, ignored Zendaya’s slight and turned to Anna. "Anna cares deeply about her family and its prestige. She’s always thinking of others. Mr. Mac, you’re incredibly lucky to have her in your family."Anna blushed, looking down to hide her smile. "Thank you, Gabriel," she murmured.Master Chen held up his hands and clapped for Gabriel. "You’ve earned our respect, Gabriel. Though

    Anna shyly sat beside Gabriel, unable to refrain from admiring him up close. His chiseled jawline, sharp cheekbones, and piercing eyes made him undeniably handsome. A strand of hair had fallen over his forehead, giving him a rugged yet charming look. Despite his striking features, his attention seemed focused on his phone.Gathering some courage, she reached out to move the strand of hair from his face. As her fingers neared, Gabriel glanced up, a playful smile tugging at his lips. "Fed up with staring at me already?" he teased, his tone light.Anna’s cheeks flushed a deep crimson. "I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to—"He chuckled softly, his eyes twinkling with amusement. "No need to apologize. It’s just hair. But thank you."She was struck by how humble and down-to-earth he was, despite his impressive skills and appearance. "You’re quite different from what I expected," she admitted.Gabriel leaned back, putting his phone away. "How so?""You’re just... simple. Humble. I mean, considering

    Zendaya couldn't take her eyes off Gabriel. Her friend, noticing her fixation, tapped her on the shoulder."You know, I think Gabriel has a woman in his life."Zendaya frowned. "That can't be. I’m the only woman for him on this planet."Her friend reminded her, "Remember what Mr. Mac said about feeling lucky if Gabriel was his son-in-law?"Zendaya huffed, "So? My uncle did say that but it doesn’t mean anything. I’m shooting my shot, and I won’t miss."Her friend muttered, "You should look at how your cousin, Anna, is looking at him."Zendaya’s gaze shifted to Anna, who was stealing glances at Gabriel while he enjoyed the party and his drink. Her expression darkened. "Anna doesn't like him."Her friend chuckled. "You think?"Zendaya flung her head back and said, "Anna isn't even half as pretty as me, so she doesn't stand a chance." Agitated, she stopped a passing waiter, grabbed a tumbler of whiskey, gulped it down, and placed the empty glass back on the tray.Anna noticed Zendaya's

    Walking into the room, Camella took off her shoes and heard her phone beep. Thinking it was a message from work about a new issue, she mumbled, "What now?" But when she took out her phone and checked, her jaw dropped. She counted the figures in her account balance and almost screamed. "Nine... ninety million?"She quickly came downstairs, her expression a mix of shock and confusion. "Gabriel, what’s going on? Where did this money come from?"Gabriel was about to explain, but she cut him off frantically. "Did you borrow money from some loan sharks just to appease me?""No, Camella, it’s not like that," Gabriel tried to say."Then why do you keep doing these unexpected things?" she yelled, frustration and fear in her voice.Gabriel stepped closer, gently holding her arms. "I did nothing wrong," he said firmly.Camella, trying to calm down, asked, "Then how did you get the 90 million back when you lost it at the gambling?"Gabriel took a deep breath. "I intentionally lost the money to m

    A thought crossed Gabriel's mind, and wanting to mess with her a little, he broke the kiss and gasped. "Wait, what about our daughter?"Camella froze, panic flashing in her eyes as she looked behind him, thinking their daughter was around. Gabriel laughed heartily. "I'm just kidding, Camella."She blinked, her eyes still wide with fear. "Gabriel, you scared me!"He reminded her gently, "Remember, you had Aliyah take our daughter to spend the night at her family's house?"She gasped, realizing her lapse. "Oh, right. I completely forgot." She hit his shoulder playfully. "That wasn't funny."He smirked. "Well, maybe you should remember next time."She rolled her eyes, her panic subsiding into a mixture of relief and embarrassment. "I can't help it when I'm severely intoxicated with you."He caressed her cheeks, then her lips, whispering, "Neither can I." Camella slipped her hands around his neck, pulling him closer. Their lips met again, the kiss deepening with every second. She moan

    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

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

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

    Zoe felt a chill run down her spine, and she struggled to find words. "I... 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. "But the truth is, in his condition, if he wants to return, a life must be taken. It’s not someth

    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

    More machines attacked, but Gabriel was relentless, his mind focused on one thing: survival. He fought with a ferocity he didn’t know he had, each blow more powerful than the last. 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
