2024-08-21 09:42:07A woman woke up with a pounding headache, her body feeling heavy and sluggish.
As she shifted slightly, she was shocked to find a naked stranger lying next to her.
WTF?!
She jolted awake, freezing in place.
Panic started to rise as she tried desperately to remember how she ended up in a stranger's bed.
Then, a terrifying realization hit her—she was naked and no longer a virgin.
Just then, the man stirred, his dark eyes fluttering open and locking onto hers.
“Wow, last night was incredible. Want to keep going?”
He sat up casually, completely at ease, his flawless body on full display.
He grabbed a bottle of water from the bedside table and offered it to her.
“Here, drink this. You must be thirsty. We can pick up where we left off if you’re up for it.”
Unable to contain her fear and anger any longer, the woman’s hand moved on its own, slapping him hard across the face.
“Who are you? How did I end up here? What have you done to me?”
The man, Alexander Leonhart, blinked, his cheek stinging from the slap.
He looked at the woman in front of him—a mesmerizing beauty with silky hair and a body that radiated perfection.
Her face was a storm of anger and panic, but her very presence made his desire stir once again.
“You!” The woman, Sophia Lancaster, screamed as she saw something rising on the man. “You better tell me who you are!”
“Calm down!” Alex stared at her.
“You ran to me and asked me to sleep with you. Don’t you remember?”
“Impossible,” Sophia denied, shaking her head vehemently.
It was impossible that she would chase after a man, especially a stranger.
“You must have done something to me!”
She felt the rough texture of the blanket against her bare skin.
Confusion and fear swirled in her mind as she looked around the room, her eyes darting frantically.
The man’s old military backpack and plain clothes caught her attention—nothing in this hotel room indicated wealth.
The smartphone on the nightstand was a cheap one with a cracked screen.
With one glance, Sophia realized the man she had slept with was far from wealthy, just an ordinary man who struggled daily to make ends meet.
"Watch your accusations," Alex said calmly.
"I'm a gentleman, and I would never force anyone. You were the one who came to me, hugged me, kissed me, and begged me to sleep with you."
Sophia’s eyes wide opened.
“Liar!”
“This is my hotel room. You can check the CCTV if you want—see if you came here or if I kidnapped you.”
Sophia didn’t believe a word the man was saying, but suddenly, a memory flashed before her eyes.
She was supposed to have a meeting with Calvin Lecter, the CEO of a rival company, to discuss the ongoing price war that was causing her business to suffer.
She had thought they were meeting to find a solution, but it turned out Calvin had nasty intentions from the start.
He had drugged her, hoping to take advantage of her.
She remembered managing to escape with the help of his bodyguard, but as she ran from them, she stumbled across a man opening a door.
Desperate, she had hoped to hide in his room for a while.
But the drug Calvin had given her was a potent aphrodisiac, which made her desires flare uncontrollably.
A sudden sharp headache hit Sophia as the memories flooded back.
"Oh no! How could this happen?"
"Do you remember now?" Alex smirked. "You were the one begging."
“Shut up!” Sophia’s face turned bright red with shame and fury.
Under the drug’s influence, everything had seemed to make sense at the time, but now, everything felt so wrong. “Damn it!”
“Listen, I’m a gentleman,” Alex offered sincerely, trying to make amends. “I took your virginity. I’ll marry you. How about that?”
Sophia scoffed, her disbelief mixing with disgust.
“You want to marry me? Do you even know who I am?”
She was one of the top beauties in Vancouver, with a rising career as a young CEO.
Wealthy men were something she’d never run out of, and yet here was this poor man, trying to use this situation to bind her with marriage.
He was clearly just another parasite, hoping to latch onto a wealthy woman like her and live off her success.
“Well, I just arrived in Vancouver this afternoon, so I don’t know anyone here yet,” Alex said earnestly.
“But I can assure you, you won’t need to worry about anything for the rest of your life if you marry me.”
Sophia scoffed again, her disdain clear.
“With your old military backpack? And those scars on your body? I guess you’re some low-rank soldier, just returned from a warzone. Your one month’s salary wouldn’t even cover my expenses for a single day.
And you dare ask to marry me?!”Sophia was furious!
How shameless this man was!
“Believe me,” Alex said, his voice low and firm, “I’m not what you think. I’m more powerful than any man you’ve ever met.”

"You're truly unruly, uneducated, and nothing more than a frog in a well, thinking you're so great!” Sophia scoffed with disdain. “That's why I despise talking to someone as lowly as you!" Alex chuckled, “Believe me, I am trying to be honest here.” "You? A powerful man?" she sneered, glaring at him with utter disgust. "You can't even begin to understand how powerful I am or the people I've encountered who are far more powerful than you. They could erase you with just a sneer." Alex laughed. "The powerful men you know might be the ones seeking my favor, pleading for me to marry their daughters just to stay in my good graces. Trust me, you're incredibly lucky to have crossed paths with me." What a braggart!Sophia rowed her eyes in disgust.She wanted nothing more than to throw something at his smug face. How shameless could he be, pretending to be so powerful when all he had was an old military backpack? "You might pretend not to know me and try to bind me with marriage just

"Young Master, my only daughter was born sick, and now it's worse." Alfred's eyes filled with sorrow, "She's in pain every day. I've seen every doctor, spent a fortune, tried everything—nothing helps. She's only getting worse. Please, help her. I'll do anything."Alex gazed at him calmly. "I'll meet your daughter tomorrow." Alfred was stunned. He hadn’t expected His Highness would agree to lend a helping hand so easily.He grabbed Alex's hand, bowed in gratitude. "Thank you, my lord!" He whispered, his words heavy with all he felt. Previously, Alfred hadn’t believed his luck when his leader mentioned Alex's visit to Vancouver. Albert wasn’t entirely sure who Alex was. However, what he was certain was even his leader must kneel before Alex! If Alex’s was displeased, millions of lives could vanish. But if he was satisfied, even the dying could live! As the head of the Kingswell organization in Vancouver, Albert had heard the rumors. About a high-ranking figure known as "God

As Alex approached the house entrance, Sophia noticed that Alex was behind her. "Haven’t you had enough?" "Believe me," Alex replied, "running into you is the last thing I wanted today." Sophia stepped out, blocking his path. "So, what is it then? Are you here to remind me of the biggest mistake of my life?" "Mistake?" Alex’s tone grew colder. "I could say the same. You think I enjoyed waking up and realizing I’d wasted my time with someone so shallow?" "Shallow?" Sophia’s eyes flashed with anger. "You’re just bitter because you know I’m right. You’re nothing but a loser, a gold-digger." Alex laughed, shaking his head. "You’re delusional. I don’t need anything from you, least of your money." Sophia stepped even closer, her finger jabbing the air between them. "Then what do you want? To ruin my life even more?" "No, I’m not here to ruin anything." Alex locked his eyes with hers. "I’m meeting my fiancée." "Your fiancée? You have a fiancée?" Sophia shocked. "I’m here to me

"Old man, how can you marry off Sophia, our greatest beauty, to that poor man? Is your brain rotten or what?" Her anger grew. "My beautiful granddaughter can never marry a lowlife. She will marry Chris Roland! He’s wealthy and powerful, and can secure our family's future." "Chris Roland?" Abraham frowned. That hypocritical playboy?"Don’t you know Jerry Roland?" Lady Lancaster snapped. "He works for Alfred Kingston, who practically owns Vancouver. Chris is his only son. Marrying him ties our family to the Kingstons!" Sophia’s parents also looked at Alex, and a dissatisfied frown crept onto their faces. Alex wore a simple shirt typically seen on people of the lower-middle class, cheap and old shoes sold on the street, nothing about him screamed wealth. If Chris Roland was the young rich man with a company, this man was probably Chris’s cleaning service, paid with the lowest salary. Thinking their daughter would marry this loser already made their anger rise to the peak. “No w

Alex shook his head and chuckled. He knew Sophia despised him."Sophia, let me show y—" He wanted to let Sophia see the real him a bit, but she turned her back to him and walked to the parking lot. A white four-seat Porsche Panamera pulled up and stopped in front of them. A stunning young woman stepped out of the car with effortless grace, her elegant dress and sparkling jewelry enhancing her high-fashion allure. "Sophia," she hugged Sophia."Lyra, thanks for coming," Sophia replied joyfully. "I came as soon as I could when I got your text." Lyra smiled while eyeing Alex from head to toe and shook her head. Not a single item of value detected from head to toe. Apart from being a bit handsome and having a somewhat fitting body, this man was totally worthless. When Sophia texted her and told her that she was forced to marry a loser and needed a helping hand, she had thought Sophia was exaggerating. But seeing Alex in person made her realize how unlucky Sophia was. Most of So

Alex took out his smartphone and pressed the fast call number 9. “Good day, Mr. Leonhart. I am Julia, your First Royal Mastercard personal concierge. How may I assist you?” “Do you know where I am right now?” “Yes, your card has GPS. You are at Vancouver’s Noble Knight Club.” “I want to become a member.” “We are processing that now. You can use your Mastercard as the membership card,” Julia replied. The glass door suddenly opened. “Your membership has been approved. Do you need anything else, sir?” “No, thank you.” Alex put his smartphone in his pocket and walked into the club. The guard hurriedly blocked his path. “I think the system made an error. You cannot enter.” “I am a member here,” Alex explained. “Why do you think the system let me in?” The guard was confused but asked again, “Do you have a membership card? I want to check it. If you don’t have one, please leave.” Alex took out his First Royal Mastercard. The guard had never seen this kind of card before. “Sir

"You talk as if you can beat me. Who do you think you are, a grand master?" Chris said with a smirk, "I doubt you have ever played this kind of game."Chris was confident that only wealthy men could afford such expensive toys, and Alex definitely didn't look like he could."There’s a first time for everything, right?" Alex shrugged casually.Chris laughed with contempt.It looked like victory were already assured.He touched his smartwrist, and a 3D hologram of a big mansion appeared."This mansion in West Vancouver is mine.

When the system declared Alex the winner, the entire hall fell into stunned silence.They couldn’t believe their ears or eyes."How can a loser who barely knows the game win?" someone blurted out.Shock rippled through the room. Everyone had expected Alex to lose.After all, Chris was the highest-ranked player in Vancouver!How could a newbie win him? Impossible!"There must be a mistake, right?" another person muttered.As Alex exited the room, with Michelle following him, people noticed something unusual—his gaming suit.It’s the latest, most expensive gaming suit, equipped with AI assistance.A newbie could become a master by activating the AI. Originally designed for military use in war, it’s now a game-changer in the virtual world.Seeing that super expensive gaming suit for the first time, their surprise quickly turned to anger."You cheated!

“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

"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.”

Sophia’s hands were locked together so tightly her knuckles went pale.Every breath she drew felt ragged, quivering with dread. Beside her in the car, Hanks kept his posture rigid.He knew better than to lay a finger on a woman destined for Harlan Drake.He valued his own skin too much.“Listen up,” Hanks said in a low, steady voice. “You’re about to meet Harlan Drake. Do exactly what he tells you. Man’s got no patience, and he’ll break you if you give him a reason. One swing from him could shatter every bone in that slender arm of yours.”When the car finally stopped, Hanks threw the door open. “Out. Now. Don’t make me haul you out myself.”Sophia’s legs trembled as she stepped onto the gravel.The mansion sprawled before her—its cold, imposing silhouette framed by perfectly trimmed hedges.A heavy sense of foreboding clung to the air. Hanks clamped a hand around her arm and dragged her inside, the grand entry hall gleaming with polished marble floors and crystal chandeliers.Without

Marco, Sophia, and Megan had decided to part ways and meet Jasper the next day.But as Marco steered his car toward his family’s mansion, a dull sense of foreboding began to gnaw at him.The roads were nearly empty, streetlights flickering like dying torches, and an oppressive silence settled over everything.Suddenly, a screeching set of headlights tore through the gloom. A vehicle slammed into his front bumper, jolting him forward.He barely had time to gasp before another car rammed his rear, sandwiching him in place.Marco’s heart hammered against his ribs. He fought the impulse to flee, but there was nowhere to go.Then came a sickening crash—an iron baton smashed into the side window.Glass shards flew like deadly confetti, and he ducked, arms raised defensively.Too slow.A rough hand snagged a fistful of his hair, yanking him from the driver’s seat.Sharp pain exploded through his scalp, and his cry of protest was drowned by the roar of rain and adrenaline.He hit the pavement

Jason was too shocked to process what was happening. His mouth opened, but no words came out as he turned pale under the weight of the situation.Jasmine’s sharp eyes scanned the room, her voice cutting through the tense air.“Does anyone here still fear the Drakes more than the Kingstons?” she asked, her words slow and deliberate, carrying a chilling undertone.“Speak now. So I could teach you.”The crowd remained silent, stunned into submission.Jasmine tilted her head, her cold smile sending a shiver through everyone. “Did you think the Kingston family has been kind for so long because we lack claws? Think again.”Jason’s smartwatch buzzed loudly, snapping him out of his daze.Fumbling, he turned it on, only to hear a panicked voice on the other end.“Husband! What’s happening to us?”“What? What do you mean?” Jason stammered, confusion clouding his face.“Our bank accounts are frozen! The stocks are plummeting! Lenders are demanding payments, and the police are at our doorstep—som

Marco spat blood and curses in one go.“You… you’re dead meat! And now you’ve made the rest of us dead meat, too!”He was all wild eyes and trembling rage, but Alex just cocked his head, looking about as threatened as a bored housecat.“That so?” Alex replied, voice flat, like he’d rather turn on his heel than waste another word.“Stop!” Megan jumped to stop him, arms stretched wide like a rickety fence.“You bastard! You dare mess with Jasper Drake? Do you have any clue what you’ve done? We’ll all pay for this!”Alex glanced from Megan to Marco, his expression as cold as a January wind.“I don’t care.”“But we do!” Sophia cried, voice shaking as she stepped closer.“You’ve ruined us! Jasper’s father won’t stop at you; he’ll come after everyone tied to you!”“You’d better turn yourself and beg forgiveness,” Megan warned, her voice trembling. “Don’t take us all down with you.”“That’s right!” Marco sneered, still hugging his battered nose, using Megan as a shield. “You must be out of y

Marco lunged first, knife raised high, but Alex didn’t even bother to look at him.With a smooth, almost lazy motion, Alex’s hand snapped out and connected with Marco’s face.A sickening crunch echoed through the room as Marco’s nose broke, sending him staggering backward.The knife clattered harmlessly to the floor.“How dare you attack me!” Marco bellowed, blood streaming down his chin.“Who told you to come at me?” Alex sneered.His cold gaze shifted toward Jasper, who still held Megan hostage.“Don’t you take another step, or I’ll slit her throat!” Jasper snarled, voice quivering in a way that betrayed more nerves than resolve.Alex just shook his head, his expression carved from stone.“There is nothing in this world, or above it, except Almighty God, that I will ever bow to. Neither fear nor death has any hold on me.”His voice rumbled with quiet power, the sort of tone that sends chills down a man’s spine.“When gods show up, I’ll smash them to pieces. When demons crawl out, I’

Jasper wasn’t much of a fighter himself, but one look at Alex—coiled like a panther about to strike—told him the man was dangerous.Licking his lips, Jasper forced a shaky grin and took a step back.“You know what?” he said. “This isn’t the age of warriors anymore. We’re past the days of letting our fists do the talking. Times have changed, and you should know that.”Alex raised an eyebrow. “Oh really? Enlighten me—what’s changed?”Jasper didn’t answer. Instead, he gestured to his men.Around twenty of them pressed in, thugs of all shapes and sizes, each wearing a smug, predatory grin and weapons on their hands.The iron baton in one man’s hand whistled through the air, a warning of the violence to come.A hush swept over the watching crowd.Faces turned pale as the realization sank in—Alex was surrounded.Yet Alex didn’t even blink. If anything, the corners of his mouth curved upward in a slow, almost taunting smile.Raising a hand, he pointed at Jasper. Then he beckoned with a “come

“No, Mama has seen all kinds of ugly, and she knows—the Lord never created an ugly creature,” the big guy said.“Really?” one of the thugs drawled, cocking an eyebrow and scratching his greasy hair. “If that ain’t ugly, then I reckon I’ve never seen ugly a day in my life.”“Ah, ma said,” the big guy went on, his voice thick with smugness, “it’s because she’s got an ugly heart. When your heart’s rotten, it drags your face, your personality, and your whole body down to hell with it.”“Sure enough,” a third scumbag piped up, nodding like he’d just discovered the meaning of life.The bystanders looked on in stunned silence, wondering how these half-witted goons managed to cook up such twisted nonsense.“But hey,” the biggest of the bunch announced, stomping his boots on the ground for emphasis, “I know how to fix that problem right quick.”He lumbered up to Megan, crouched just enough to leer into her face with mocking concern, and said in a syrupy tone, “Next time, sugar, don’t go havin’
