The Almighty Dominance Chapter 132
"He who has overcome his fears will truly be free."— AristotleAs Alex strolled into the old mansion all by himself, he couldn’t help but notice the bedlam inside.Thugs milled about in a frenzy, weapons clanking, voices raised.Some of them were bent over makeshift tables, arguing about their next move; others were testing the edges of their knives and machetes with manic grins.It didn’t take a genius to see they’d been summoned in a hurry—half of them still had beer bottles in hand, eyes wild.Alex paused at the threshold, expression twisted with disgust.Look at them, he thought, a ragtag bunch of cheap hoodlums chasing the next payday.To them, he was just another face in the crowd—nothing special. They hardly paid him any mind. “You sure Kingston’s men will come?” a tall, wiry guy asked, voice threaded with a jittery excitement. “Damn right they will,” sneered another, stroking the blade of a freshly-sharpened machete.“We’re going to war. Tonight, we take all of Vancouver.”

“The people who play with fire will get burned,” Alex said, his tone cold. “And people who play with fear will find fear coming to take their life.”“I heard you’ve been spreading fear across Vancouver to make people know who you are,” Alex said, narrowing his eyes.“I don’t dare!” Harlan stammered, trembling.“If only you spent your time being kind and waited for it to come back to you, you’d be the happiest person on Earth,” Alex said, positioning his thumb and middle finger to flick Harlan’s forehead.“Next time when you’re born, please, be a good person.”“Please…” Harlan whispered, his voice barely audible.Alex flicked his fingers.Suddenly, Harlan felt nothing—only darkness.His body collapsed to the ground, lifeless. Inside, his brain had already turned to mush.Alex sighed wearily and walked out of the study room.Without needing confirmation, he could feel Sophia’s presence in one of the large rooms.Beyond a towering wooden door, the lavish scent of expensive candles filled

The previous night.A restless moon hung over Vancouver that night, casting a pale glow across the cramped apartment block where Marco Ashford arrived in a breathless rush.His heart thudded louder than his footsteps, though he kept his face carefully composed.Inside, Florence stood in the faint hallway light, her cheeks streaked with tears, her shoulders trembling.“Florence, what happened?” he asked, mustering his best tone of concern.She clutched at his arm, her grip so tight it hurt.“Marco—oh God—my daughter! They took Sophia! You’ve got to help her!”Marco forced a sympathetic frown, fighting the guilt that coiled in his stomach.“Who took her?” he asked quietly, even though the answer was already gnawing at him.He’d sold Sophia’s address to Hans, and the shame of that betrayal pressed like a cold stone against his chest.Florence’s voice cracked, her tears renewing. “I-I don’t know. It was so fast. Please, Marco—you have connections, you can do something!”He nodded, placing

Inside the cramped apartment, Sophia stepped out of her bedroom and practically stumbled over her parents and Megan, all sprawled like dead weights on the couch.Then Marco slunk out of the kitchen, clutching a bottle of mineral water like he’d just stolen it.He froze the instant he saw Sophia—like he was staring at an unwelcome ghost.The bottle slipped from his grip and fell on the floor, water splashing everywhere.“S-Sophia... how can you be here?” he gasped, sounding as if he might keel over at any moment.Panic churned in his gut.His eyes flicked to a kitchen knife lying on the counter—grim thoughts swirling in his head.Did she know?Did she know I sold her out?Should I just grab that knife and make sure she never talks?He swallowed hard, then looked all people on the couch and starting to panic.Maybe I’d have to shut them all up…“What do you mean?” Sophia’s voice cut through his spiraling thoughts.“I—I heard the Drakes kidnapped you,” he blurted, voice unsteady. It felt

Alex had barely stepped out of the apartment when his phone buzzed.Carlos was on the line, and he sounded frantic.“Sir, there is an emergency,” Carlos blurted.“What now?” Alex snapped, bracing himself for bad news.“We’ve taken Harlan’s mansion and scooped up all his intel. Turns out he’s been dealing with Jericho Kane.”“I already know that. Give me something new.”“Harlan’s also joined forces with Charles Kingston.”“What?” Alex’s tone darkened.“He’s selling his sister, Jasmine, to seal Kingston’s leadership—with Harlan and Jericho backing him.”“Are you certain?” Alex demanded.“Kelly went to confront Charles at his mansion. It’s been two hours… no word from her. We think something’s gone wrong. I’m requesting permission to storm the place and get her out.”“Don’t bother,” Alex cut in, his voice like ice.“I’ll handle this myself. If they’ve hurt her, I swear I’ll kill Charles with my own hands.”“Yes, sir,” Carlos said, then the line went dead.Alex glanced at the sky, a muscl

Two of Charles’s men tore down the valley in a frenzy, only to find two vehicles smashed together and pinned by a fallen tree.Sprawled on the ground was a corpse, the sight so grim it turned their stomachs. Instinct jolted them to draw their weapons, scanning every shadow with anxious eyes.One guard snapped open his radio, voice tight with urgency. “Young Master, Kelly’s out of the forest. Two of our guys got wasted.”Chris’s reply exploded through the speaker.“Are you all braindead? She’s poisoned and barely standing, yet you let her slip through? Worthless bastards! Either find her and drag her back, or don’t bother coming home!”“Yes, Sir.” The guard’s voice was clipped, dread rolling off him in waves. He signaled to the others. “She’s weak and poisoned—move it!”The four men dove into the trees like wolves on the hunt, their fear of failure overshadowed only by their fear of Chris.Back in the study, Charles stood tall, his tone deceptively calm as he addressed Chris Nolan and

Bill bared his teeth, then drove Charles into the wall with a sickening thud that rattled every pane of glass in the room.The impact stole what little breath Charles had left; he crumpled to the floor, coughing violently until tears rimmed his eyes.“Look at you,” Bill jeered, lips curled in disgust. “You’ve pissed yourself, haven’t you? Pathetic little coward.”Charles stayed on his knees, shaking so hard he could barely keep uprightHis lungs burned, and his mind spun with shame. All he could do was stare at the polished floor, wishing he could sink into it and vanish.Bill gave a dismissive snort as he turned to leave.“You call yourself a man?” he spat, gaze sweeping over Charles with searing contempt. “You’re nothing but a piss-soaked dog lying in its own filth.”When

Luke had been born and raised in Vermont, he resented the new monarch.In his eyes, the rightful successor to the throne was Jericho Kane—no one else deserved that honor after the old king’s downfall.But when the old king lost and fled into hiding in Vermont, Jericho Kane’s hunger for power was ignited.Luke’s dislike for the current ruler only grew into seething contempt.Standing tall beneath the trees, Luke scowled at Kelly, letting her cling to him in desperation.His tone cut through the still air. “You Kingston people—followers of that new king—nothing but maggots and bitches.”The venom in his words reflected the unwavering pride in his eyes.He leaned closer, his voice dripping with arrogance. “I’ll show you how a man from Vermont pleases a maggot and a bitch like you. We are the superior men.”Kelly pressed herself against him, her breathing quick and shallow.A sultry whisper escaped her lips. “Really?”Before Luke could process her intent, a glint of silver flashed in Kell

“Who the hell is this freak,” one of the assassins hissed, voice trembling as he watched the bodies of his fellow Vermont Elite sprawled across the cold pavement.Fear gnawed at his gut, and the moment Alex gave him permission to scram, he took off running.They’d trained for decades to be unstoppable, to rule Vermont by Jericho Kane’s side—but all of that meant nothing in the face of this unstoppable force.He sprinted through the night, lungs burning, and jabbed the call button on his smartwatch.“Sire,” he panted, voice trembling. “We’re facing a monster… and he’s demanding a meeting with Master Kane.”Moments later, Jericho slammed his fist onto a heavy oak table.The table burst into splinters under his blow.“Who does that arrogant bastard think he is? Some boytoy of Hilton wants to summon me? Me? The Governor of Vermont!”“I’ll damn well show him who he’s dealing with!”Vetala hovered nearby like a ghostly shadow.“Sir, I’ve watched his moves. I’m convinced he’s not just some r

They exchanged wary glances, each person unsure how to react.Minutes before Alex arrived, Jack had yelled loudly enough for half the hospital to hear him:“I don’t care if it was demons or damn gods who hurt Sophia—I’ll kill them all. I’ll burn the whole world down if I have to!”The others chimed in, bravado swelling like a rising tide. “Damn straight! I’ll give up my life if that’s what it takes.”But the moment they learned Jericho Kane’s daughter was behind the attack, every ounce of their fury vanished like smoke in the wind.Gods and demons? Sure, they were easy to hate—unseen, distant, nothing more than ideas.But Jericho Kane was flesh and blood, a man who could wipe out families on a whim.Suddenly, no one even dared to whisper a word of protest.Florence and the others grew restless, every one of them understand: messing with the Kane family was suicide.Even if they were spit on, kicked around like stray dogs, they had no power to fight back.“You won’t have to worry,” Ale

The hospital reeked of antiseptic and despair. Jericho Kane shoved the double doors open with the rage of a god uninvited.He froze.There she was—Bella, his daughter.His golden girl.Mangled beyond recognition.Her once-radiant face was now a ruin of blood and shattered bone. Her arms?Torn like wings from a fallen angel.Her legs? Bent in ways only nightmares could dream.He staggered a step back, his lips trembling. Then—“Who did this?!”The roar cracked through the ward like a gunshot.Nurses flinched. A bodyguard limped forward, face pale, one eye swollen shut.“Sir… it was Alex,” he rasped.“Jasmine Kingston’s… boy toy.”Jericho’s knuckles cracked as he clenched his fists, fury dancing in his eyes.“Alex? That son of a bitch again. He has the audacity to lay a finger on my daughter?”He glared at his guards, eyes blazing. “Why didn’t you protect my daughter?!”The guard swallowed hard, bracing himself.“He’s… stronger than we expected, Sir Kane.”Jericho seized the guard by th

“Um.” Everyone froze, eyes wide, as they watched Barbie fall to the ground, blood spilling across the floor.If they hadn't seen it themselves, they wouldn't have believed it.A legendary warrior—undefeated in the arena—now dead by a single bullet.Jaws dropped. No one could’ve seen this coming.They thought Barbie’s arrival would settle things. Instead, everything flipped upside down.“You!” Henry barked. “Don’t you have any honor? How could you use a gun in a fight?”“Good question,” Alex nodded, cool and sharp.“Why would anyone try to fight someone with a gun using their bare hands? Is she stupid? Most people run from a gun, not charge at it—unless she really thought she could win.”“She can’t!” Henry screamed.“She rushed me. I figured she could take it. So, I shot!” Alex snapped back.“Alright, Barbie, I’m sorry,” he added, his voice flat.“You bastard! What’s the use of your sorry? She’s dead now!” Henry shouted.Alex’s answer was another shot—this time grazing Henry’s thigh.H

One by one, each guest stepped forward with a look of grim determination.Every time someone approached, two sharp slaps resounded—one across Bella’s cheek, the other across Henry’s—before the guest left without so much as a backward glance.It was a relentless parade of humiliation, everyone too afraid to disobey the man who commanded them.While this sick assembly line of slaps continued, a subordinate from Kingwell handed Alex a thick folder.The moment he read its contents, his expression darkened.Still, the slapping went on, as if the guests were workers on a factory line.Bella’s face swelled to twice its size, and Henry’s lips were puffed and raw.Tears streaked Bella’s cheeks as she whimpered, “I’m sorry.”Alex folded his arms, looking unimpressed.“Oh, really? Tell me, Bella, have you ever forgiven anyone who begged you for mercy?”Bella sniffled, her voice trembling, “Yes… I mean, if someone apologized—”Alex snorted. “Don’t lie to me. I’ve dug up all your dirty secrets in

Alex leaned back in his chair, casually stretching his arms as though bored by the whole ordeal.“Next,” he drawled, voice flat. He shot a cold glance across the room.“You, brown hair in the black suit. Get over here.”The man in the black suit stepped forward, trembling so hard it looked like his legs might give out.He risked a quick, apologetic glance at Bella.“I’m... I’m sorry,” he muttered. Then, in a jittery burst of courage or desperation, he raised his arm and slapped her.The crack of flesh echoed in the silence.Bella flinched, blood trickling at the corner of her mouth.Alex gave a dismissive yawn.“Move it along, people. Don’t make me do it for you.” He cocked his pistol and spun the barrel for emphasis.“From here on out, if anyone’s slow to follow orders—” he tilted his head to the side, eyes flashing menace.“—I won’t waste my time with warnings. I’ll just shoot.”A hush fell over the crowd.One by one, people inched forward, some grimacing with regret, others almost

Everyone in the ballroom knew one unspoken rule:Never cross the Kanes.So when this random nobody smacked Bella Kane across the face, it felt like time itself froze.Every head turned, jaws hanging open. The gasp was almost a collective choke.“Is he out of his damn mind?” someone muttered.“He actually hit Bella Kane… He must have a death wish.”A hush fell, thick with fear and disbelief. For as long as anyone remembered, Bella was the one who dished out the torment—never the other way around.In that moment, the unthinkable had happened.Bella swayed on her heels, hand pressed to her flaming cheek.Her eyes were wide with equal parts shock and wrath.No one, no one, had ever dared lay a finger on her.“You—” she spat, voice cracking, “you dare… you dare hit me?”Alex felt adrenaline rattle his veins. He’d lashed out before thinking; a part of him hated that he’d struck a woman.He flexed his hand, trying to ignore the sick churn in his gut.“Kill him!” Bella shrieked, voice echoing

Bella arched her perfectly manicured eyebrow and, with slow deliberation, lifted her stiletto-clad foot.She wiped the streak of blood from its heel against Sophia’s mouth.Then she spat, full of contempt, right onto the woman’s fainted body.“Get her out of my sight,” Bella snapped, coolly flicking her gaze at the two bodyguards.“She’s not fit to breathe the same air as the rest of us. Make sure you two enjoy it.”Without hesitation, the guards each grabbed one of Sophia’s arms and began dragging her across the polished marble floor.Her battered, lifeless body smeared a faint streak of blood in its wake.A small knot of onlookers gathered—some wrinkling their noses, others letting out cruel, amused chuckles.“That’s what you get for trying to swipe something from Jericho Kane’s family,” one of them sneered.A middle-aged man, wine glass in hand, watched Sophia with open scorn.“If she was that desperate for money,” he drawled, a smirk tugging at his lips, “I would’ve written her a

Charles flicked his gaze over Sophia sprawled on the marble floor.He clicked his tongue in quiet disdain.All that time and cash he’d funneled her way—her and that vulture of a mother—could go up in smoke if he didn’t salvage the situation.And he’d been so close to getting her into his bed, to boasting he’d seduced one of the top five most beautiful women in Vancouver.A real waste if it all ended here.He ran a hand through his hair, shot an irritated glance at the raging Bella, and stepped toward her.“Bella, come on,” he said in a low voice. “Don’t you think you’ve gone a little too far?”Bella’s eyes flashed with contempt.She didn’t reply. She just raised her hand and smacked Charles right across the face—loud enough to make the entire ballroom freeze.Gasps hissed through the air.Charles Kingston, the so-called Prince of Vancouver, getting slapped around in front of half the city’s elite?That was a headline all on its own.Bella didn’t give a damn.She jabbed a finger at him.
